Indie Press Revolution

my new life means i have a few more hours per week for ttrpg editing commissions. got something that needs a rigorous, honest, considered line/copy edit? hit me up. i'm pretty affordable, and i can cut you a deal if needs be.

Pax is up in a month so now is a great time to get your Covid and flu shots and you’ll build up the antibodies by then
(this is likely not the right medical verbiage but knowing takes a week or two to kick in and that’s what I’m talkin about)

Coming soon: Swords Without Master A ttrpg of strange sorceries, brutal violence and astounding wonder by Epidiah Ravachol.

Now that you've met Snorri, Manyara and Muaphet, let's revisit one of my favorite blog posts about Swords in general and them in particular. I need to rewrite it for the new fixup*, so why not repurpose it for a thread?

A copy of The Balsam Lake Unmurders among fallen leaves on an outdoor stairs. And now it's on your mind instead of what you *should* be dealing with.

You're rushing of course. There's never enough time. Then you spot a game/zine out of the corner of your eye. What nerve it has. Is it following you? Shouldn't it be home on a shelf?

Kickstarter staff have been on strike for 21 days, in a bid to protect their working week and win a minimum salary.

How to Promote Your Work How to reach out to blogs, pods, and media outlets, and the 5 things creators can do to promote their work while building community.

Ryan over on @theweeklyscroll.com and I were talking about how some folks promote themselves like cheap door-to-door salesmen.

As someone trained in branding, there's another way that's more rewarding and more fun. The approach I'm trying to get better at👇

This is a very specific question, but does anyone know if zines that use cover stock are considered "rigid" by USPS standards?

Something being rigid is one of the factors separating letters vs packages. I think I have the other factors covered, but I'm not sure on the rigidity.

GIRL FRAME by anxiousmimicrpgs Lesbians in mechs, struggling against oppression and eldritch horrors

Do you like lesbians and mechs? Messy power dynamics and half-alive robots you have to swap blood with? I just released GIRL FRAME, a TTRPG inspired by Mechsploitation, Armored Core, and Evangelion. Go check it out!
anxiousmimicrpgs.itch.io/girl-frame

The top half is dominated by the title in large, bold letters in a glitchy and cramped style. It reads... WHERE THERE ARE NO ROADS This is against a starfield that becomes more densely populated with stars as we move down the image until an arm of the Milky Way is plainly visible above a black horizon. The sideview silhouette of an all-terrain vehicle packed with cargo is parked on that horizon. A lone figure, also in silhouette and presumably the driver, stands atop it. He or she appears to be looking into those stars.

First pass on a cover for that battle caravan RPG zine I mentioned a while back

Restocked!
