Hey folks! I'm Craig. If you see me at a con, come say hi! I rep Goodman Games, and I'm also a freelance writer, proof-reader, copy editor, and goblin wrangler.

I love learning and teaching new systems, and I'd be genuinely thrilled to hear about that cool thing your character did. Seriously.

This is somehow both hilarious and the scariest horror movie I have ever seen

Just belatedly learned that Castle Rat played the Ottobar last Saturday. Anyone in B-More catch the show? I've heard their live shows are a blast.

It’s just the leftover skull make-up — it was really stubborn about washing out of my beard hair and eyelashes.

Doc Webb @docwebb.bsky.social · 1d

This was a great issue! Seeing Terry Pratchett’s world and work referenced in two separate articles made me very happy. :)

Also, on this subject, I… ahem… might know where you could find a freelance proof-reader and copy editor for future issues, if you’re interested…

@prismaticwasteland.com Just reading the newest issue of Wyrd Science, and there’s a nice review of PW, including comparing it favorably to a “one man Knock!” and being “more immediately useable and …more visually engaging” than Speak False Machine. :)

Really well-deserved praise!

i too cry when cutting up an onion but it’s with the happiness of knowing i’m releasing the joyful soul trapped within

You work fast! :)

Always worth haunting overstock liquidators and tradestock auctions/sales like an absolute goblin. ;) it was one of my grand-dad’s favorite hobbies after he retired. Picked up some genuinely great kitchen shelving and some ENORMOUS aluminum pots and pans the same way.

It’s just one of those brochure holders like you find in motel lobbies — I clipped off the dividers so I could spread stuff all the way across each shelf.

@timhutchings.bsky.social Really nice write up of Art & System in the newest Wyrd Science!

"Oh, is this 'The Thieving Dog'? 'The Dog that Stole'?"

"It was damaged a bit, but I can fix it" is how most of my TTRPG romances start.

The attribution on this killed me. 🤣

@riseupcomus.bsky.social Today’s blog post was an absolute banger. I’ve hacked Brechwold into a handful of systems over the years, but hadn’t yet considered HMtW — this sounds like an AMAZING fit!
