TTRPG and horror artist for the fabulous Wondrous Environments by Runic Collective, the frankly superb Daemon Eater, and for the Codex DND 5E series.

My first full comic, The LADDER, hits Kickstarter March 21st!
Awe, just as I had finished my first book pile, so good timing!
Um so Mechanical Heart is still free on itch and I think you should download it.

I mean I’m just sayin.

Congrats to me. Apparently I’m married now! Not sure when this happened but I’m positive the reception was fuckin lit.

So, once the Codex of Celestials is out for 5e, I'll be focusing on my comic BUT I have a cosmic horror pantheon in development for #Daggerheart #TTRPG.

Got over enthused and accidentally made 52 monsters, including the genuinely joyful Mr. Jenkins.

Mr. Jenkins is not Mr. Jenkins.

Finished the writing for the 4 issues of The LADDER - got some #art done too! If you love surreal #horror #comics that don't hold your hand, follow me. I'll be dropping images and info in the run-up to the Kickstarter.

For now, here's a look at 2 for those who haven't seen her:

Good things for today: now 3 of the cats play fetch with pompoms; the roof has finally been fixed (it's so much warmer without the gaping hole); I've spent some time helping a taekwondo club and community centre apply for grants; drank so much tea.

Bad things: 5 hour meeting about High Streets.

Anyhoo, as much as having to faff about sorting a new Bsky account can be, it DOES give me an excellent opportunity to request loads more people to tell me the #ttrpg and #comicbooks they love!

Rn, I'm loving Daemon Eater TTRPG, and the first issue of Kindred: Amarantha Cull!

Well guys, I'm having to start a new account until @bsky.app actually go and deal with the account theft, so if you can let everyone know I'm here (at least for now), I'd really appreciate it.
