I think you're doing a great job and remind me a bit of Casey Newton over at Platformer. Smart, fast, and earnest about your beat, honest and open about your goals and struggles.

In exactly 7 weeks, I will launch my 1st crowdfund. I bet on myself and on my collaborators, leaving a permanent position. The campaign will go a long way in determining what I do in the next couple of years... no pressure! So pardon me for promoting and seeking all the help I can get! #daggerheart

Swooned over this, visited your portfolio, and realized you AD'd and illustrated the Unbalanced Encounters identity, which was the last thing I swooned over. ✨

A digital illustration featuring two fairy characters standing together as a flock of pale teal moths swirl around them. One character has with pale blue-green skin, dark eye makeup and long orange-red hair, in blood-red and black helm and armor resembling the carapace of a Japanese rhinoceros beetle. They hold the second character, who has pale pink skin, soft features, and fluffy short pink hair, in a pink and green outfit reminiscent of a pink rose.

A digital illustration of a pale-skinned, horned masculine character with flowing wavy back hair, wearing black blouse and pants. He is standing against a blue background, surrounded by swirling wind and leaves, gesturing as though he is commanding them.

Two character illustrations on a flat black background.

Right: the character is an early-twenties, masculine human. He has warm pale skin, light brown short hair and green eyes. He wears a deep olive green and gold blouse, brown cropped pants, and brown lace up boots. He carries a brown leather messenger bag, and a barn owl is landing on his shoulder.

Left: a satyr character on a flat black background. They have light tan skin, pale ash blonde hair and fur, digitigrade furry legs and split hooves, curled horns, deer ears, and a long tufted tail. they are androgynous, wearing a cream blouse and green pleated skirt; and carrying a red hardcover book.

Putting out a call: if you were part of WOTC’s late-2010s live events (Stream of Many Eyes, D&D Live, The Descent), I would love to talk to you as part of the Actual Play book.

[email protected] will reach me, either to schedule a chat or to share your memories.

Please feel free to share.

I saw this, gasped at its beauty, and instantly want a Daggerheart campaign where animals take back the planet from humans.

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:
www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

I love award shows. It's no secret. It's why I've spent months writing, refining, and trying to distill my Ennies judging experience.

It's a 4-part series (I know, I know). One article a day. Today's lays out my goals and puts the focus on awards in general.
