hot tip: if you can't vissualise the idea you have in mind, just start drawing, doodling and molding it out of shapes and let that process take your idea someplace you didn't realise you wanted to go. It's like exploration.

and, it's argubably the single best part of creating art.

Been having it rough. Health isn't great. Mood isn't great. Medical infusion yesterday took it out of me. I got this. And it was stressful and scary to receive. Sharing it was the best decision. BECAUSE Y'ALL ARE THE BEST! It's venting and commiserating now. BECAUSE OF YOU!

Thank you. For real.

The hack of the British Library, from which it has still not fully recovered, should have been a warning that we cannot rely on digital books alone, but that would require the people making decisions on these topics to be even mildly informed on the subject.

Public Access is a horror game about childhood trauma and the treacherous nature of memory. In an industry obsessed with cartoon gloss and chasing mass market appeal, Public Access just wants to scare you.

You cannot have a meaningful Dungeon Meshi campaign if strict rations records are not kept.

A banner that says Little but Fierce: Streamlined 5th Edition for Children of All Ages. There’s a preview of the physical book cover and artwork. There’s a quote from Sarah Johnson, Education Consultant that says: β€œIn a sea of electronic alternatives, Little but Fierce stands as an exciting and fun competitor that will delight geeky parents and their children alike.” There are also four photos of the creative team: DC Bradshaw, Catarina EusΓ©bio, Sebastian YΕ«e and Jennifer Kretchmer.

A Wizard is never late, he's always on time for Playtest Zero! For our US-friendly session, join us next Thursday, 12 March from 6 pm (PT) / 9 pm (ET) to late over at the Session Zero Discord server to do some 1-hour playtests of TTRPGs/game bits and chat with other designers! (Image unrelated)

If I could give just one piece of advice to the AP producers of #ttrpg stuff.

Don’t upload stuff to go live on your YouTube channel the same day you have stuff go live on Twitch.

People only have one sense of attention. If they are watching your episode on YouTube…

Sorry, someone complained because you shipped something within three days of order (i.e., immediately)??

I just received a game I helped kickstart ~4 years ago & I was excited & fine with the wait because it's a beautiful book by an excellent person & designer!

People need more joy in their lives.
