Coming soon: Ballad Hunters RPG Britain, 1813: Folk ballads are coming to life. Armed with ballad magic, you decipher clues in each song and save the people affected.

Britain. 1813. Across the island, the folk ballads of the common people are coming to life. The dead walk, dragons rise, lovers betray one another, authorities condemn innocents to die β€” whatever happens in the song happens in real life. My latest TTRPG is coming soon to Kickstarter! #ttrpg

This - after a public consultation that came down c95% against corporate copyright theft - is a hearty move towards this government’s spineless purchased representatives needing to be hoofed in the crotch by us all, in a big queue until they get the message.

Hey, so I went and made a Carrd so people can more quickly and easily check out things I've done in one place. You can see it here if you're curious, but I'll be updating everywhere to link to it mikeharrisonwood.carrd.co

By the time I'd written about 3 sentences of technical direction at the top of episode 1 scene 1, I realised I was calling for a diegetic score. It'd slap but it's not feeling like a simple side project now

Having a go at a pilot script today, and this thing is fantastically simple, enjoyable, easy, creative and joyful to write, and unfortunately would be a complete mare to produce

My Dad's committed to taking a photo a day of the same landscape throughout 2026 to document the changing of the seasons.

In today's newsletter, Mum gently ribs him about whether he really thinks he can keep it up. It was charming to edit!

Lie To Him - A solo roleplaying game about dishonesty Lie To Him is a solo game exploring themes of honesty and dishonesty, trust and mistrust. The zine will include original artwork, professional layout and fully play-tested rules.

A mere 12 hours left on zinetopia, which means 12 hours left to back Lie To Him!

I haven't been pushing the crowdfunder too hard in this last week because frankly it has performed better than I ever dared hope, but hey here's one last push:

Buy my game. It's good. Honest.

Not asking for help but this would fund either the rest of our audiodrama or our tabletop game (sadly, not both).

And it would have a chance of making the funds back in sales if we executed well.

IMHO, the way to reconcile this is that he's a soldier and she's a politician and this helps them bring out the best/worst in each other. Macbeth is squeamish with the scheming but in his element when the bodies start hitting the floor whereas she's the opposite.

The Deepest Dark has just 4 days left on our campaign. We're funded, and just under Β£500 away from our one and only stretch goal - Β£6k which will let us release more cassette tapes with the game's album, composed by @tincanaudio.co.uk

If you haven't already, please consider backing the project!

In the middle there is a piece of paper reading "26 DAYS LEFT" with stylized text reading "MECHADOVA RAILWAY" underneath. At the bottom of the graphic there is the front of a steam locomotive visible to the left, and the text "The Mechadova Engine Kickstarter".

What I can offer myself is support in Actual Play show development! If you're building a show concept and you want to take it somewhere new for your team, I can advise. In an ideal world, you could offer some payment (because this is a profession for me) but I'm open to small consultations as well.
