This Sunday I'm running 6 hours of Bones Deep for some lucky strangers. Join me at Nerdfest, say hi, and play some games!
#Stonetop recommends you write letters to your PCs in between sessions (lore drops, creative prompts, resolve threads, tell secrets, or just dig deeper). And I am loving it! I might not be able to write letters between EVERY session, but this is a really fun GM tool to add to my arsenal.
Running my first TTRPG game in a loooong time. This paragraph sold me on Stonetop, and I can't wait to see it hit the table.
I've finally been feeling creative again, but I don't have an office right now. So I made a travel desk from an old cigar box! Very happy with how it turned out. It's big enough surface for writing, and can be angled in various ways. Especially proud of making the cigar slots into modular trays
"Your thirst is mine. My water is yours." I've been playing a beautiful video game where strangers greet each other with that phrase and care for one another. I need to keep my head in this space. Play #cavesofqud if you can. "Live and drink." - parting phrase
I'm all set up at Captains Comics Expo! Come and get a book(s)
I'll be selling my books this weekend at Captains Comics Expo!
Another Aquarium Game Night is in the works! While we wait I'm going to publish our adventure: - Stop a Vampire (Squid) from corrupting the ocean - Built for educators and convention one-shots - Includes built-in pacing tools, pre-made chars, and handouts - New art from @creekdontrise.bsky.social
The Aquarium Game Night was a huge success!! The GMs ran a fantastic adventure, the players were all so creative, and the dice were fickle as ever. Hope we get to do it again soon!! #aquarium #osr #ttrpg #marinebio #rpg #troika #gamenightfun
Tonight a bunch of skeletons are going to explore the ocean floor at the SC Aquarium Game Night! Here are some of the slides from our introduction presentation: #aquarium #gamenight #troika #ttrpg #osr #marinebio #rpg
Fellow Game Masters prepping for our SC Aquarium Game Night! It was always my dream to play Bones Deep near the big aquarium tanks. Tomorrow will be a test run: - 7 Tables - 4 Hours - Limited Entry If all goes well this will become a regular program available to the public!
I'll be selling my books at the big book fair tomorrow! Firefly distillary in Park Circle from 12 - 5pm. Come say hi!
I'm all set up at Charleston ZineFest! Only 3 copies left of Tempered Legacy, so get em while they're here.
I'll be selling my books at Charleston ZineFest this Saturday from 11am until 6pm. Come stop by and say hi! No cost to enter, and it's indoors at the Halsey Institute downtown.
I love the beard balm from @plusoneexp.bsky.social . When it runs out, the tins make perfect little dice trays!
I've been writing 15-20 letters a month for 6 months! I'm pretty proud of that. Here's a peek at the messiest part of the whole process (and one of the most fun) #fountainpens #letters #handwriting #waxseals

Good advert. If I need to print a bunch of blank notebooks, I'll call you.
Slowly emerging from our slumber... Expect a new(ish) release from Technical Grimoire soon!
My greatest achievement of the year: Ended up winning with a horned turtle build. This run took about 15 hours to complete, but overall I've put just under 200 hours into it. What an incredible game. I can't wait to dive in and try a different build and see different endings.
Got to mess with my new flex-nib pen, a Noodlers Konrad! (Thanks @markerslinger.bsky.social ) Still getting the hang of varying pressure and writing angle, but it's fun! I'm already feeling a little overwhelmed with 5 pens; I don't see myself getting another pen for a loooong while. (I hope!)
Can you help me balance my budget? I'm pretty happy with my current set of 3 pens, but one day I'd love to try out a flex nib / calligraphy nib. Any suggestions?
