Such a rush getting the first proofs of a new project in the mail! As soon as I have the first draft and most of the illustrations in layout I send to print. This not only gives me a look at margins and layout, I now have a great prop to shoot for social media and other marketing.

Hornet from Silksong is my new go-to idle doodle. Something about that head shape and eyes. It’s fun to study and uncover how this character design conveys so much action and gesture with simple shapes and almost never showing her arms or hands.

Hearing about someone playing Perils & Princesses always is a delight, but engaging with some of my fav mechanics AND making gorgeous character art?!!😍
We played Perils and Princesses on new year's eve and this was my lady, Lark of the Midnight Orchard (she was the powerful friendship class and had an owl named Lyric). Lark sacrificed herself at the end to save an npc from a death curse by using Burden and is going to play chess with Death

It’s wild when you realize a kindred spirit you meet online is literally your neighbor! I definitely see some games in our future.
Had such a delightful hang with @outridercreative.bsky.social this morning, now plotting how I can get a game of Perils & Princesses going asap 👀

I’m so stoked for Tom and Tabletop bookshelf. Even more excited that he’s in Milwaukee, where I grew up. Going to have to swing by whenever I visit.

Here’s the full cover art for the Drakenfall Faire one shot. Surely if this kingdom was hosting a dragon slaying-themed faire, they’d want a sick knight and dragon on the poster?

Want a sneak peak at the new adventure for Perils & Princesses? We've cooked up an entirely FREE preview prequel one-shot so you can have some fun at the faire and get acquainted with the dragon-obsessed kingdom. More brilliant writing by @dhowl37.bsky.social and editing by @scenefour.bsky.social

Completed the last piece of artwork for The Princess & The Dragon for Perils & Princesses! Needed a good lead-in illustration to the appendix that includes 2 new Gifts(classes) to play as.

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.

The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.
Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

Client: We need a new beer can design.
Me: I’m sorry but I’m moving away from packaging to focus on publishing and tabletop games.
Client: We want a wizard riding a woolly mammoth on the can.
Me: OK DONE.

I LOVE how My First Dungeon includes a session 0 and character creation episode. Check out how they build their characters and put together their party for their Perils & Princesses campaign !
It’s time to meet our gritty and pretty princesses!

Perils & Princesses | Session Zero

Join @danielleradford.bsky.social @bobigail.bsky.social @symphonyhorror.bsky.social and @shenuque.bsky.social as they build their characters and decide what kind of world we want to play in.

I have an idea for a game with a four-letter title and my biggest motive right now is that I need to make it before @gilarpgs.bsky.social uses the word.

Im so stoked for GOBZ!
Don't let all my posts about power fantasy knights distract you from the fact that I'm also making a really silly goblin skirmish game where you flick dice at each other
Good morning! Have you followed the GOBZ kickstarter page?

If you want a silly goblin skirmish game, you probably should.

I really feel like the midcentury medieval vibes of the next Perils & Princesses adventure are locked in. Just a delightful twist on a high fantasy TTRPG adventure. www.kickstarter.com/projects/out...

The Enchanted Forest Chronicles meets Freaky Friday!

Last year, Ryan hit me up to see if I'd be down to write a new adventure for P&P in the vein of the EF Chronicles series we both love. To say that I was "down" would be an understatement.

Can't wait for y'all to see what we cooked up!
