Duck & Crow Press

if you want to know how important it is for you to do this math: the fees patreon took from me in 2025 add up to roughly 3 months of income. that's 3 months of income i would have paid taxes on if i didn't deduct the fees from the 1099. 3 months of income i never actually had!

We’re are out hitting the ground to get signatures; I’m trying to answer all your great questions, but my responses won’t be as timely as I would like. In lieu of that, please visit my website for more info and enjoy this photo of me when I woke up this morning. Shirt by: @foreveryone.bsky.social

Three landscape pictures. Two of them are trees among a grey background with fog. One above them is a landscape of rolling hills overlooking a lake.

A gold painting with embossing made to look like grass.

A painting of a butterfly with transparent wings against a bright blue background with a sunburst pattern. The gradient is really rad.

A circular painting that resembles a woman with black hair with her hand outstretched. Its got a cool rorschach vibe to it.

Local artist in the Hartford, CT area have got together to donate their work for sale in partnership with www.HipHopfortheHomeless.org IG: @hiphopforthehomeless to help raise funds for the charity. My man ig: @rapjoeybatts reached out to me to help spread the word. He's been putting in the work!

Kickstarter success. Nice.

If you want to help, dig up an older post about AND HE SHALL EAT THE SUN and do a repost with a quote. The art (and artists): all very amazing. The writing is pretty good no matter what Tyson doesn't say.
FUCK! I"M WORKING.
OK - seriously - I'm going to write an XP table for a wilderness crawl.

In 3 hours my first Kickstarter will have 24 hours remaining. I think I'm supposed to shout about it and push and get those last few folks interested. But today is my games day.

Today games are JUST FUN.

This is a day off work.

Remembering to take a day is tough when self-employed.

Thank you! I'm excited to get this into the world, but more excited to run it amd hear about people running it!

Also, the velum and cave paper bindings are going to be DOPE.

See you at DungeonCon!!

Thanks for the shout out! I think we are going to finish super strong!

Last 48 hours for AND HE SHALL EAT THE SUN.
This has been an awesome first ride at crowdfunding - thanks for the support and letting me constantly talk about it!

Long-ass day at CincyCon, but had a great #bloodbathdungeon run. Points to be calculated, but they ran the time out and flamethrowered a stack of giant beetles ... solid.

6 days left in the kickstarter!

wheres YOUR custom designed swag that you made for yourself that's based off an obscure od&d adventure on itch 🫵

5am

Tyson gets a first peek at the adventure.

"The art is fucking sick!"

Thanks! Not a word about the writing though. What an asshole. 😀

Stopped for a lovely breakfast at the Red Line Diner in Fishkill, NY on my may to CincyCon.

Only 1 cave paper binding left.
And as of an hour ago, only 3 velum bindings are left.
As many regular bindings (with linen finish cover which im in live with) available as you want.

Closeup of a glossy finish book cover.

Closeup of a linen finish book cover. It has texture!

Normall finish on the left, sick linen style finish on the right. I LOVE paper with texture. Very pleased about this choice.
