A seal with a brassy-gold rim with the words "The Secret Phoenix Society" along the top and "E Pluribus Ignis" along the bottom. In the center on a purple field is a rooster, wings spread wide, with fire coming out of its beak.

Spent today working on updates The Secret Phoenix Society and I just got the new logo back from @penflower-ink.bsky.social and it looks phenomenal!

Had a great weekend relaxing and playing games with my partner @keithfrady.bsky.social and a bunch of my friends.

Feeling refreshed, energized, and ready to get back to the grindstone ✏️

This demo has been out for just a couple of days, but I am already getting some *very cool* reports back.

It works, people, I am so excited 🥳

I'm just getting started with ttrpg design, but I've been doing a couple game jams on itch, including the One Page Dungeon Contest that I'm currently working on

If there's still space, I'd love to be added.

Just vibing with my emotional support jellies 🪼

Thanks @montereybayaquarium.org live cam 😁

This looks fantastic 🤩 just picked it up and can't wait to run it for my group of wierdos 😁

Nothing like spending a beautiful Sunday afternoon recovering from yesterday's migraine 😮‍💨

Three reasons you should vote for Triangle Agency:

3) It deftly blends anticapitalist satire, slapstick humor, & existential horror

3) It is incredibly fun to read, play, and run

3) It both subtly and unsubtly asks you to consider what it means to follow a rule, to play a game, to trust a system

This is an incredible compilation! Thanks for putting it all together in one place 😀

I have to imagine them with matted goat fur. But on the other hand, a wooly nothic looking like some sort of one-eyed dire poodle stalking through a frozen ruin would be an oddly horrifying encounter

Is it weird that I find them oddly adorable, like a bunch of hairless chihuahuas 😍

Spent all yesterday afternoon being a guncle with my partner and his nephews, and two things are now very apparent.

1: I have forgotten the level of energy 8-11 year olds are able to maintain.

2: My Pokémon knowledge is not up to snuff.

Hey this is your reminder to go rate the games you've downloaded on Itch 5 stars. It's free and helps your favorite designers!

Thanks so much! It really felt like a natural fit. I have some more ideas that couldn't make it in the final cut due to the word limit for the game jam. But, I am definitely gonna be coming back to flesh it out some more. I'm really glad you liked it 😁

Up in Charlotte at HeroesCon with my man. If you like Calvin & Hobbes and meta narratives about creators slowly losing their sanity, check out his Kickstarter 😱

Dealing with the ever-present conundrum: should I procrastinate today and deal with the consequences later or be proactive now so I can be lazy later 🤔

"I want to support indie creators, but I dont have the money for it."

Good news! Support is not at all limited to financial contributions!

Give that book a glowing review.

Invite your friends to play that cool game.

Hoot and holler about how much you love that movie.

Hype the good shit up!

Congrats yall 😀
