Love these!
The Cosmere RPG's conversation system is something that was very important to the design team. Here's my update as Consulting Designer on why the Mistborn RPG book was the perfect place to expand further on this key system!

We are delighted to announced that the Cosmere Roleplaying Game is an Origins Awards Finalist in two categories: Best Roleplaying Game and Best Miniatures!
We are absolutely honored to be nominated. Thank you to our incredible RPG team behind this awesome game.
You didn't seem nervous to me! I thought the opposite: you seemed like a professional who's confident in their expertise. I'm guessing this was someone projecting how they would have felt in that situation.
When my youngest son was 6, we used to do this very cute dance routine where I'd bounce him around while we listened to music by Toby Fox.
He is 10 now and the "lift him in the air" move is much more difficult. 😅
But it's nice to be back home after a few days on the road.
Ha, good point! 😄😄
Just saw that I wrote "come visit me us" 😭
Had a great time meeting with game retailers this morning! @meanpomelo.bsky.social shared details on Free RPG Day, the Plotweaver Envoy Program and our direct-to-FLGS program at bwiseretailers.com!
All set up at GAMA Expo! Come visit me us at the @brotherwisegames.bsky.social booth!
Congrats to Emmet and his collaborators for how well this campaign is going! It looks really beautifully done.
Thanks for spreading the word!
Join the Brotherwise Games Envoy Team!

Plotweaver is currently getting developed by a wonderful group of folks!
So, please read (and share!) below about the people making this awesome game 🧵
Personally I think this is too much money to give to Donald trumps poorly trained but heavily armed Militia
I really appreciate that!
If anyone here knows how to get in touch with the lovely artist behind Snowy's Maps (snowysmaps.bsky.social) I would like to offer them some commission work!
And I know this sort of an awkward way to get in touch with someone, but it can be surprisingly difficult to find artists' contact info. 😅
We've updated the Plotweaver website with some lovely new art from Cristian Benavides. Check it out, and if you haven't already, take the survey about what you'd like to see from this new genre-spanning open source RPG system!

Very excited for this, especially with @mericmoir.bsky.social spearheading the development!
Lots and lots and lots of fun plans for the future. Follow the Plotweaver accounts to stay tuned! You won't want to miss out.
Please allow this proud dad a moment to brag about my kids:
My 18 year-old earned straight A's during his first quarter of pre-med classes at Northwestern.
My 16 year-old got accepted to a summer program at Yale to study law and politics.
And my 10 year-old won a writing award today at school!
🎉
p.s. if you want to PUBLISH content for those non-Cosmere worlds of your own—maybe even for real money—you should definitely watch this space 😉
After-hours fun at Dragonsteel Nexus with @brotherwisegames.bsky.social (and friends from Kickstarter and Demiplane)!
Getting to dunk @johnnyoneal.bsky.social was the highlight of my month and it’s not even over
On Saturday at Dragonsteel Nexus, the Cosmere RPG team is running our first-ever actual play for the Mistborn campaign setting! I'll be playing Jacques Ardot, an overconfident dilettante with Gold-powered super-healing. The team is running some hilarious characters... this is gonna be fun!
My office is unusually clean today, so here's a look at my workspace!
Like everyone at @brotherwisegames.bsky.social, I work from home. I surround myself with various geeky items, a complete library of Brotherwise games, and mementos from my days at Mattel, Spin Master, and Moose Toys.
Happy Thanksgiving! We had an amazing feast (including the best-ever hoisin bacon butter roasted turkey) with my beloved sister-in-law June and her friends from Taiwan. After dinner, we went for a nighttime stroll at the local botanical garden's "Astra Lumina" exhibit. Lots of reasons for gratitude!

When recording videos for Brotherwise, I tend to skip writing a script because A) it's easier and B) improvising sounds a little more natural. The ad lib approach usually works, but I don't always stick the landing.
It's been a while since the last time I attended a Magic pre-release, but I couldn't resist stopping by the Game Hub to play the new Avatar set! Put together a pretty decent green/white Allies deck with Aang, Momo, Sokka, and Kyoshi. Lots of exiling and earthbending. Good times!
We've always tried to do weekly date nights at restaurants, but this is cheaper and a lot more fun! At first we wondered, "Are we too old for this?" (We're 45.) But there's always a big age range at these places, and we're roughly in the middle. This feels like such a life hack. I recommend it!

Earlier this year, my wife and I went to see a 90's cover band and had a total blast. So we found a similar band and did it the next weekend. Then we found a dive bar with live music, and another local venue with a great DJ. Then we realized that nothing stops us from doing this every weekend!
