Hello Twitter-Refugees!

I’m the editor for the Advanced Age Roleplaying Gamers podcast. It’s a TTRPG passion project I make with my dear friends.

I post a lot about audio tech, recording, editing & sound design

I’m a firm believer that indie artists should help each other find their audience.

"We Have Been Feeling the Pressure Like Never Before" - The Worrying Disappearance of Comics Commentary and Journalism Sites from a Broken Frontier/UK Small Press Perspective – Broken Frontier Broken Frontier's Andy Oliver takes a look at the bleak landscape for indie/small press comics commentary and journalism in the UK.

Spot on. The UK scene, but the situation in North America, too.

"We will be left with nothing but commentary about super-hero movies, anti-progressive podcasts and YouTube channels, and whatever the hell it is Comicsg*te are vomiting out this week."

Ugh. Yeah, it's bleak right now.
