I'm a sucker for characters who are bullied and get stronger - not to take revenge, but because there's something they're fighting for something or have a thing they become passionate about. Seeing them break out of their shell fuels me.

Officially signed up to write for #Knutepunkt '26! Hoping to attend the conference in Sweden, too. My piece from 2025 was recently published on the Nordic Larp website, and it's incredible to see it there and printed in the book. #nordiclarp #larp #larp #writers

Grief in Larp: Bleeding Through Two Lives

By weaving empathy, safety, and self-awareness into the fabric of larp, participants can transform grief from an overwhelming experience to an opportunity for collective healing and deeper connection, says Lyssa Greywood.

Until a few days ago, I had avoided playing #Minecraft for 14 years. I have a group of beloved friends who game together, and we were trying to decide what to play after #StardewValley. I now have a #hobbithole base that I dug out the side of a mountain for, and I'm currently working on a #tavern.
