One thing about collaborating on something is that it makes me take more screenshots of progress being made, which I've realised is quite fun to look back on! I should probably learn to do that more when not collaborating.

I suppose I should be fair to myself and also explain that I am exhausted and was sick last night after a long day at a friend's wedding...so yeah...

Why does falling asleep to your favourite movie feel like such a betrayal 😭 (to the film, not myself)

Dearest fellow TTRPG goblins, I am expanding my offering! This is something I have long done in multiple work contexts, so it just makes sense to offer it on a freelance basis as well. Reasonable, flexible rates provided on request.

Haunting honks, you say? πŸ€” That feels like a prompt right there! πŸ˜‰ But I hope it quietens down soon for you!

If you have a podcast or newsletter about solo ttrpgs or otherwise, I’d love to chat about SPINE as well as some of the design questions that led to the game:

How do we play with books in ttrpgs? How do we talk about ttrpg books and why does it matter? How is reading part of or a form of play?

Migration is Britain’s superpower. Our future depends on embracing that truth, not denying it | Zack Polanski Labour has lost its nerve. At our party conference this weekend, we’re gathering to set things right, says Green party leader Zack Polanski

"I'm here to talk about what others won’t. To tell the truth about what makes our country great and what makes it not so great. While others thrive on creating scapegoats, I am here to tell you a different story."

Sometimes it's hard to not feel overwhelmed by *waves at the world* all this. However, working on something with the wonderful @mumblemegs.bsky.social is perfect for the escapism! Something whimsical this way comes... πŸ‘€ πŸ’š

Ooh yeah that's interesting! And yeah cryptic ones are hard xD gotta say though, your dungeons idea has given me a bit of a crossword bug xD

Oh I wondered why the crossword layout looked so different! Didn't know the US had such a different style.

Of course I actually meant crossword answers, not clues, but you know what I meant! πŸ˜… In addition...
- illness was one of the answers near army and sample, which also in part inspired the lab but isn't so obvious
- a silly one, but Woodstock inspired the inclusion of a stack of firewood xD

Crossword clues that inspired the map:
- strained, deserts (put together it led me to trickling sand...which prompted the hourglass shape)
- ninth
- ouch, curio (inspired the room of curiosities)
- hardwood
- sink (sinking sand)
- tankard
- stockade
- sample, army (inspired the lab)

For a little while now I've wanted to attempt to make a dungeon map, and when I saw molomoot's Crossword Dungeons, I knew I just had to try it. I love this idea and it was so fun to do! It might not make much sense, and I probably made mistakes, but here you go....my first dungeon map!
