I am so hype for this, you guys 👀 From the delightful familiar faces to the obvious love (and creative joy!) that went into this issue, I just know it's going to be a blast.
I am SO EXCITED for you to see Horizons 2. We have an amazing set of authors, artists, editors, and testers who poured their immense expertise into it, and there's so much goodness to put in your games.
Two days until Horizons 2! This issue includes:

🏔️ Op-ed by Quintin Smith
📖 "Isolde's Tome of Esoteric Spells" by Amber Litke
🩸 "Crimson Strings and Stolen Prayers" by Sadie Lowry
🪤 "Terrific Trappendix" by James Introcaso

Oh I needed this.
A post from Twitter that I like to read sometimes whenever I'm feeling despair creeping in.

This is a pleasing meme. I will talk about nice things and I'd love to hear about yours.

So you know how I mentioned getting back into crochet? Well, the cats—Maggie and Dinah, in particular—have been "helping" as my quality testers...

Happy 2025, all! Back from my holiday visiting, and one of my goals is to be more active over here.

I don't often make resolutions (and it's rarer that I keep them 😂), so let's try something different. Here are some of my Stars and Wishes from 2024, going into 2025:

It's a mechanic that I implemented in my current DnD 5e game, but honestly could be pretty easily implemented into other games-

The Swansong.

So, the fight is going badly, the team is on their last legs, and it looks like a party wipe is coming.
🎲 Designers, let’s dive in! 🎲

What’s a TTRPG mechanic you’ve created, seen, or played that completely surprised you with how it shaped gameplay? Did it encourage collaboration, chaos, strategy, or something unexpected? How did it surprise you?

hey not to be all corny but please understand and internalize that your creative work is vital and beautiful whether others see/hear it or not and that your creative expression enriches the world just by your having done it

I have found the exact spot to drag my chair on the front porch so I can be shielded from 90% of the rain and enjoy this cool afternoon storm. Is there a better combination than petrichor, music, and rain?

Semi-related to my most recent post: I have found that Bsky often displays posts without the attached photos or images. I've poked all through my settings and tried Googling, but haven't found a relevant explanation or solution—any of my more seasoned friends here have an idea?

I have really got to become more active over here! It's just so hard to break the habit after spending so much time on The Other Blue App, and being used to some level of engagement there. But I won't get to engage and chat with people here unless I'm active!

Speaking of cat photos AND fall photos, I've been keeping the windows open the last few days and everyone has been enjoying the fresh air—Maggie perhaps most of all.

My thoughts re: GMs & Game Designers

I've often said that if you write, you are a writer. It doesn't matter if you're published or if that draft is forever stuck in WIP. That doesn't make you a "professional" writer, but you are still a writer.

It's been a while since I had to do an intro post. And while first impressions are important and all, I've probably been overthinking it. 😅

So hi! I'm Marcie. I'm an editor and storyteller by trade and by nature. You can see my work stuff in my bio, and I'll be posting more about it soon.
