Check this very cool, rules-light space-themed #ttrpg! I had the pleasure of looking at it, and this isn’t space opera or Star Trek; it’s about regular folk trying to get by in the blackness of space, and they may not be alone. The more support Dave gets, the more content there will be! :)

Canadians (or anyone) feeling sad about not being able to attend WorldCon, I wholeheartedly recommend Can*Con. The virtual con in April features Silvia Moreno-Garcia, and the GOHs in-person in October will include Premee Mohamed, Stephen Kotowych and me. Follow @canconsffh.bsky.social for details.

Hi, I’m God. You all died in 2016. And yes, this is Hell.

Last time the U.S. invaded Canada, the White House ended up burned down. Don’t mistake politeness for passivity, you hoser.

This is an awesome #ttrpg project that I had the privilege to glimpse. It starts a dialogue with the deep space genre that goes beyond Alien and the like. Check it out!

Yup.

In 7 days I conceived of, and drafted, a complete 2500-word micro setting for a cool sci-fi #ttrpg called Tiny Frontiers. All I had at Christmas was a couple of concept sentences. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to design something from start to finish that quickly. Feeling good. :)

northernlightsfoundry.itch.io/vitv It's a hexcrawl through a miles-long starship on a really razor thin rules chassis (imo). Inspired by things like Luke Gearing's Wolves Upon the Coast, @iamthehornedone.bsky.social's Across a Thousand Dead Worlds, Traveller, and more. First hex plan comes Sunday

Photography post alert! My 2025 calendars have arrived! Tried a new company (100% Canadian) and couldn’t be happier. #shoplocal #supportsmallbusiness #imcheaperthanwalmart #theymakegreatgifts 🙃

This bears sharing.

Currently researching aquatic cryptids of New England - which is fun - for a WIP. It makes me wonder about any purported to exist in Lake Ontario. I researched ship disappearances years ago for a short story, but I just might have to return to that for a future project.

Home safe and sound from @canconsffh.bsky.social! Thank you to the Con Committee for providing a wonderful event that’s often the only time I see my favourite people, and to everyone who attended my panels and workshop. And a hearty hail to new friends! Now to plan new creative endeavours….

Just had a great interview with Jason Connerly of Nerd’s RPG Variety Podcast to talk about “Sleepy Hollow” - Kids in the Attic’s forthcoming folk horror #ttrpg! More details to come, but in the meantime please check out the campaign on Backerkit: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/k...

Another first for me! Issue 50 of @gallantknightgames.com's TinyZine has an article I wrote introducing six NPCs for Tiny Cthulhu! Each has a backstory and motivations, and just because some might be "good", that doesn't mean they're helpful. Likewise, the "villains" could be unlikely allies...
