Once again I'll be at the games room at @cymerafestival.co.uk from 10 today, this time running my reverse horror game The Family! If a rules-light RPG where a group of us play the villains of a folk horror movie sounds up your street then find me up in the Highland Room. No festival 🎫 required!

Flora MacDonald & Zombies opened to a FULL HOUSE at @cymerafestival.co.uk yesterday! Thank you for being the best audience we could ask for in its very first outing. One more show this afternoon, then you'll have to catch her at @buxtonfringe.bsky.social or @edfringe.bsky.social
