  • It’s Been a While

    I’ve been so busy the last several months, I only just realized I sort of left you hanging with my last post. So to catch you up…The Hearth Magazine launched! It launched later than I wanted, but back-to-back norovirus and flu will slow anyone down, so I can’t really feel too bad. Anyway, you can…

  • Gather Round The Hearth (Magazine)

    I posted a little while ago about my decision to publish a TTRPG magazine starting in 2025. Well, I made the soft launch last week on Bluesky. Gentlebeings, announcing The Hearth Magazine. A bi-monthly digital publication about and for the TTRPG space. It will feature articles and art from around the world, as well as…

  • Wherefore Magazine?

    A few weeks ago I sort of bullied myself into launching a TTRPG magazine in 2025. In fairness it’s something I’ve had on my mind for years, but it wasn’t until that ill-fated social media post that things sort of gelled around the idea, and it shifted from something I could do to something I…

  • TTRPGs for Palestine Itch Bundle

    In response to the ongoing genocide in Palestine, Jesthehuman is hosting a TTRPG charity bundle alongside 354 creators to support Medical Aid for Palestinians who work for the health and dignity of Palestinians living under occupation and as refugees. They provide immediate medical aid to those in great need, while also developing local capacity and…

  • Extra Life (Solo) TTRPG Weekend

    I had intended to run games during Extra Life’s official Tabletop Weekend a few weeks ago but health issues got in the way. But every weekend can be Tabletop Weekend if you believe. So join me April 26-28 for my Extra Life Solo TTRPG Weekend! I’m playing solo TTRPGs and chatting, most importantly I’m raising…

  • Over at The Rat Hole

    I swear I planned to post more, I swear. But the facts don’t lie and my previous post was in January, so… Anyway. Hello! I’m back! SAD and executive disfunction are a hell of a drug. Keeping it simple for today, head on over to The Rat Hole and check out my interview with Eli…

  • Updating the Ko-Fi Shop

    Every once in a while I go over old creations and see if there’s room for improvement. I don’t have a set schedule for this, it usually happens when some other thing I’m doing reminds me they exist. This week I used swarms of bees and the Hedgicorn I created in a charity game I…

  • Supporting Palestine

    You might remember my friend Jes from our interview back in July, when they were releasing their excellent Uncaging Nicolas on Itch. One of the things we touched on in that interview was Jes’ commitment to supporting charity through tabletop gaming on their channel. So it comes as no surprise, with the atrocities committed against…

  • Wandering to NJ Web Fest

    May of 2022 I had a Twitter conversation with two friends that changed my life. I didn’t realize it at the time. Life changing moments masquerade as totally normal moments, only revealing themselves when you look back at when it all went so right/wrong. In the moment Anne and I were wishing Krissy a happy…

  • At The Rat Hole

    Another week, another interview over at The Rat Hole! This week I had the distinct pleasure of talking with Cassi Mothwin, a brilliant designer of TTRPGs ranging from the cozy to the horrific. Her latest solo TTRPG, Carved by the Garden, launched on Kickstarter tomorrow. We took an hour to talk about the TTRPG space,…
