It's worth noting, every penny we bring in right now goes to supporting our contributors, be they writers or artists. Extra funds (like from a Ko-fi donation, say) go to support community copies and free subscriptions. So even if you have a few bucks to spare it all helps!

I think it might be our prettiest cover yet, and that's saying something because we've had some great covers!

It's a little bittersweet that this will be my final big ttrpg event lurking in the group chats I can't wait for you all to see these casts and couldn't ask for a better way to close this chapter.

It would mean a lot if you stop by but I know you're busy.

🚨ENNIE POSTMORTEM ALERT🚨

Some critical analysis about TTRPGs' biggest awards. @explorersdesign.bsky.social 's locus standi for this commentary is impeccable; he served as judge in the most recent Ennies!

Clayton @explorersdesign.bsky.social · 1d

Part 3 is here. The deep dive into the Ennies. If you're someone who doesn't know much about the Ennie Awards, you should read parts 1 and 2. But if you like a bit of inside baseball and are interested in award shows in general—this is the article for you.

How are the Ennies designed?

An insider's look into the 2025 Ennie Awards. Part three. How does the structure of the Ennies determine its outcomes? And what does it mean for others?

Not going into details until it's resolved, but man I wish the universe would stop kicking this magazine in the teeth.

Unfortunately the tech issues aren't resolved, but will be resolved this week. So I'm pushing the release of Issue 4 to October 14. It's frustrating wanting to work on it but not being able to, but I promise it's coming!

While delayed, Issue 4 is on its way and that makes it the perfect time to grab single issues to catch up, or maybe grab a (full or half price) subscription to get #4 and the next five issues after. Your call! #ttrpgsky #ttrpg ko-fi.com/prairiedrago...

If anyone in Portland is unable to fast and doesn't want to be alone, let me know! I'm happy to gather with other non-fasting community members.

Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg @theradr.bsky.social · 8d

A reminder that if you're not able to fast on Yom Kippur for any reason -- and mental health is a health reason -- it's regarded as a MITZVAH to eat.

By the by, no one comes to interrogate you if you grab the half-price subscription. Times are tough and you know your situation, grab the subscription at the price that makes sense for you. We're happy to have you stopping by The Hearth regardless.

Unfortunately, I have to delay Issue 4 until October 7. My computer is giving me grief and it will be out for repairs for a bit. On the plus side, I can also get my defective "d" key fixed as well.
