Looking for a good holiday read? Try my adventure fantasy books, "Pains of the Past" and "Carnival of Shadows." Both feature my main character, Oswin Splitrock, a dwarf bounty hunter who travels the land of Aeden with his faithful canine companion, Dawg.

Folks who've been going to @jafax-gr.bsky.social Jafax a while, I must ask, how's the TTRPG scene there? I've just submitted my AA application and was hoping to run our new game after hours.

If you'd like to publish your book without enriching four entities that emerged from the bio-jelly of a thousand pulped tech-bros, you could scan this writeup I put together on self publishing Legends & Lattes, which cost less than 5k and involved human artists and editors

One of the hardest things I've ever had to do was tell our 8-year-old daughter her grandfather passed away.

Because we want a space full of positivity, kindness, and support. We’re not getting that in this world so we’re going to make a new world. It’s literally what we do for fun! We will forge a new community we can be proud of.

Appliance broke. Had the presence of mind to remember I had sprung or a replacement plan. New one incoming. This is nice.

Responsible adulting in full effect. Check me out.

I use #ttrpgs to help build community and to convey themes of justice, courage, caution, and acceptance.

My favorite fantasy TTRPG ruleset is Shadowdark and I recently had some extra books printed up for my players and I’m amazed at Lulu’s quality.

I've clicked on the wrong starter pack, so for anyone who followed me back, I'm sorry I was clicking for the Fantasy Genre, not Fantasy Football.

Got my annual review at my day job which was very positive. That was nice. I'm very fortunate to have this particular job where I actually LIKE all my co-workers.

I'm not getting out of this life without doing a live play of one of my games. This realization has just dawned on me.

I was bullied in High School and instead of becoming a maladjusted billionaire with a penchant for cruelty, I channeled it into being a kinder person to help break the cycle.

Ok, I guess I'll play.

-Baldur's Gate series
- Street Fighter (SFA Alpha 3 being my absolute peak)
- Genso Suikoden series
-Final Fantasy
-Bloodstained
-Octopath Traveler
-Pillars of Eternity 1 and 2 (really my favorites because of how non-DnD it tries to be).

Hey

You know that one project?

That one you've wanted to write FOREVER except it's scary as hell & maybe you don't feel good
enough or brave enough or strong enough?

Spend 15 min on it today

Keep the dream alive

Even a pot on the back burner needs to occasionally be stirred

Justice will be served.
Haven't had one single iota of artistic inspiration since last week for *reasons* so I forced myself to draw this badass armored lady knight whose only purpose in life is VENGEANCE

Is this for real, because his name is misspelled in his handle:

Time to start thinking about Gaming/Comic/anime conventions for '25.

Ideally looking for both artist alley space and opportunities to run our game.

For gaming there needs to be a registration system so I know people are going to show up.

Travel is by car so keeping to the midwest.

The filters on bky might be my new favorite feature ever,

Finally reaching a point where re-engaging with art and fun things doesn't feel like a betrayal of my friends who are experiencing real pain.

I'm going to try working here exclusively for a bit, just to see how it feels.
