@bklynlibrary.bsky.social is fighting book bans and promoting freedom at Flamecon! Stop by their booth to sign up for a library card and learn about the books unbanned system!

5 copies of FEAST+VERDURE fanned out on a wooden table. The cover features an abstract leaf pattern in green and brown.

Picked up my contributor copies of FEAST+VERDURE from @plusoneexp.bsky.social at @flamecon.bsky.social! These are the games that arguably launched my RPG career!

Excited to be doing a signing today at the booth at 2:00!
