I have a weekly Saturday writing group where we read and critique portions of our in progress novels. So today was my write day so I could submit before the midnight deadline. It started out with no inspiration and at least seemed serviceable. We will see what the consensus is tomorrow evening.....

Shared this with my writer friends, and they are having a ball with it!

Lots of fantastic fonts in this list! Perfect for fantasy, sxi-fi, and anything in between!

ITS LIVE! TC Modern Battlemap Books is ready to pre-order on Kickstarter! More than 100 Battlemaps for your modern or cyberpunk TTRPG setting. Grab the free sample here: drive.google.com/drive/folder... Get more info and back the campaign here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/int...

So cute, Google, thinking that you can justify increasing the costs for your Workspace because you have an unpopular tool you've gone all in on and need to make some value off it. What are we going to do, end our subscriptions and use another service? ......Yes. Yes we will. #noAI

Project Priorities going forward! 1. We Go Together Like Peanut & Jam 2. Alchemy-Craypots Project External Playtests 3. YEARNING Alternative Settings, The goal is to get everything out and done before June/July. Finger's crossed and nose to the grindstone! #ttrpg #ttrpgcreator

Monstrous Menagerie #1 is out! A set of stock art with 8 creatures. Get them at tania-herrero.itch.io/monstrous-me... and make sure to check the license and usage restrictions. Totally free, but if you have coin to spare, that would help a lot and make it possible for me to keep creating more!

Something tells me that the executives of US politics have never played the Civilization game series. They could learn a lot about world diplomacy from those games. Instead, they rolled a Nat 1 on their check to Make an Impression. Mixed metaphors, maybe. It all means the same. Slava Ukraini

What was going to be a wizard lab turned into something darker, more sinister.... Welcome to the Spider Queen's Lair! Made in @dungeonfog.bsky.social with additional assets by @tomcartos.bsky.social and @caeora.bsky.social

The final day approaches for our friends at Nord Games' new ORACLE RPG campaign building tool! This killer app makes creating monsters, encounters, towns, NPCs, and more a snap! It all ends TOMORROW so make your GM life easier! Don't miss KS savings! www.kickstarter.com/projects/nor...

RP Mag Issue #1: Towers & Tomes is available now on our Patreon! It's free to paid members and only $5 to unlock each issue if you're not. Both are great options. It's a zine size but not zine quality. We hope you like what we're doing moving forward. tinyurl.com/RP-issue1-prev

"It is human nature to see an out of reach place beyond their grasp, and decide to prove nature wrong and reach out anyway." YEARNING - A Solo Exploration TTRPG is OUT NOW on itchio. Explore an unmapped cavern system, manage your PANIC, find the RUNES and achieve ENLIGHTENMENT. #selfpromo #ttrpg

The one thing helping to stave off despair from [gestures vaguely at everything] these past few weeks is hiking in our National Parks. I hope that this can be undone so these workers can continue to share their joy at the natural splendor with people like me

Taking a mental health hike day was definitely needed. My mind is now refreshed! Now if only my body agreed after at least 6 hours in the car....

Welcome new followers! Think it's time for a new intro post: I write and review TTRPG supplements, specifically geared toward PF2E and ToV. I am a fantasy fiction writer, slowly working my way toward a complete novel. GenAI is theft, no matter how used. Be a beacon for light in these dark times.

Me: Open Steam to play a game. Steam: Downloading Patch, 20 minutes Later.... Me: *checks status* Steam: Verifying files, 15 minutes Later.... Me: *checks status* Steam: Installing files, 20 minutes Me: JUST LET ME PLAY MY GAME!!!!

I’m seeing a lot of soft takes from industry mutuals at the moment that we shouldn’t be so hard on those who use generative AI because it’s becoming harder and harder to resist. Wrong. Betraying your ethics (and your peers) because ‘everyone else is doing it’ does not suddenly make it acceptable.

We’re careening toward a constitutional crisis, where the executive branch may refuse to obey federal court orders to stop their illegal actions with departments and agencies. So what now? Read my write-up: https://buff.ly/3QbkDZx

Writing descriptions of the forest the characters in my WIP novel are journeying through really makes me want to go hiking soon.

This gave me info and context I needed.

Just finished my read of @koboldpress.com's Campaign Builder: Dungeons and Ruins - very good book filled with lots of great advice and information! Debating whether to do a deeper dive on it still.... would need to devote quite a bit of time to write one with my usual thoroughness....

As a GM, I try to avoid status effects that remove character turns. If it limits the options (i.e. fewer actions or less movement), those are fair game, but I want players to have at least something they can do each turn. Any other GMs feel this way? Any TTRPG players care either way?
