My new green lap harp arrived! She’s a work of art. Omg, she beautiful, and she sings so brightly!

I'm working on a new song! It's Silent Night on the harp. I've gotten it mostly down. Please enjoy.

Emily Fiegenschuh (e-figart.com) sent me the original watercolor of her illustration "Swanmay by the Moonwell." This will be the cover for our upcoming Rising Shadows Omnibus. She is amazingly talented!

4 days; 4 D&D games; 3 editions. My die-rolling hand is tired. I'm going to need to go ice it.

A thinking Eric is a cozy Eric.

My cat likes to play fetch but at his own pace.

6pm pacific!

Just in time for the chill to be seeping into the air...

This is the copy of the WFRP 4th edition rulebook that I used while writing the Enemy Within Director's Cut. I put a notarized statement to that effect in the front, vaguely intending to auction it for charity.
Since I was laid off, I now need the money for rent and food.
Would anyone bid on this?

I always loved the title for the MOON-RS12 trilogy. Pawns of Torment. It gives me shivers. Here, the Moonshaes are shaken by the truth of The Slain. All this with archdruids, an ancient queen, and a dracolich!

Eric with a beautiful harp

The lap harp can travel with me to conventions, but my pride and joy is the Troubadour lever harp. He has such a beautiful sound!

In this weekend’s DnD game, the party continued their exploration of the Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan. We’re going through it from top to bottom instead of bottom to top. I love how this adventure works in either direction.

I really like the El Paso airport. It’s very nice. Compact, efficient, clean. Lots of light. A good level of theming. Everything I could want out of a small city airport.

Two amazing black t-shirts with a flaming monkey skull design one the left shirt and a cartoon illustration of a knight with their head being eaten by a mimic on the right.

I recently moved my shop to a dedicated Dashery storefront and I am so happy to report that the quality of apparel and items is excellent! #ttrpg #dnd

The MOON10 bundle of the Moonshae adventures is up on the DMs Guild! These adventures showcase the arrival of The Slain. The stakes get a lot higher in the Moonshaes, as our villain shows that it's good to be bad!

Mmmm. Hobbit-style griddle cakes. My weekend indulgence.

4 hotel passcards. 3 have Eric written on it while 1 says “Real Eric”

The hotel reservation filled in everyone on the reservation with my name, leaving me to explain that I was the real Eric. Registration had fun with it. 😄

DM's Guild knows a good thing when they see it. ;-)

Summer has slipped away. It's time to start practicing Christmas carols with my harp for the next four months. Fortunately, there are a number of relatively simple ones.

Eric is trying to steal Aladdin's lamp.

No one is watching. I’m sure I can filch it!

This is just baffling. I had family members who had Post-Polio Syndrome. It was awful. Pestilence is one of the Four Horsemen for a reason. We caged that sucker, and now we're just going to let it out? So it can ride through our streets again, killing indiscriminately? Gah!

This was so much fun! Also, who doesn't love an archetypical villain making bad jokes? ;-)
