Critical Role Sydney! Such a great show so far and only half way through.

Ooof, my bookshelf just judged me with this....

It feels like Christmas day when the artists send through the first drafts of your commissioned art for your new book. It's so fricken cool.

Hi All, I've just released my solo journalling sci-fi game aimed at kids 7+ called Worlds of Pure Imagination. legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/5170...
I'd love it if you would check it out if you have a young story teller in your life.

early Lucas drafts show Star Wars very nearly had the chance to be the funniest movie of all time for Australians.

Backed this a few days ago and I am truly excited about it. D&D can cost a lot of money if you want it to or it can be free if you want it to. There should be no barriers to entry.

What a great idea! Is the system going to have its own SRD as well?

Had a blast running the adventure Hold Back the Dead at @dungeons.and.flagons.wa the other night. The defenders came up with some really great unique ideas on how to stop the undead army.

This looks great, how are you going to deal with copyright issues from Wotc? Or is this more we have the same base stuff but have expanded in a different direction?

Update, I went with Santa Himbo being kidnapped by a tribe of Christmas goblins led by a Krampus-esque villain.

What's weird is when you go back to work at your old school. Suddenly your old teachers are your co-workers. And yeah, the stories they tell are amazing.

Not to say the year didn't have its low points too, but it's important to focus on the positives and learn from the negatives.

2024 was a big year for me, I wrote and published 2 TTRPG books in print, attended my first con as a publisher selling said books to people, ran my first Kickstarter(over 1400% funded) and got back into running games with the Dungeons and Flagons WA guys.

Perfect timing, I've been looking to get some solo journaling games for the 6yo.

And that's a wrap! Thank you to everyone who supported me on this book, it was a truly amazing response that blew through the funding goal.

Absolutely, plus I own what I put on my site, if I choose to move to a different site I can take my mailing list with me. It's a nice change.

Trying to come up with Christmas one shot ideas. I'm thinking a tribe of goblins called the Grin'ch led by a red cap who come down & steal the food for the Feast of the Winters Star. The party has to retrieve the food. Maybe throw some cooking mini games in there somewhere?

It's been a while since I've last posted so here's what I've been up to recently. Attended my first con as a writer/publisher with my books, sold a bunch of them and had some amazing chats over the weekend, then I took my books to PAXAUS and had a hell of a time. It's been a fun couple of weeks.

What's some of the best hiding spots you have used?

I swear bluesky is bad for my wallet. Everytime I go into here I end up backing another Kickstarter or picking up a new game that I'll probably never get a chance to play BUT. SO. MANY. COOL. PRODUCTS.
