New DM of the Mists video! 🌫 There's a thing people say about Strahd, which quite frankly isn't true... okay, actually it is a BIT true. But it's missing context. In this video I talk about the thing a lot of people get wrong about Strahd... 🧛🏻 #CurseofStrahd #Strahd www.youtube.com/watch?v=mh5B...

Big love to one of my subscribers for letting me know about this. It's so annoying - especially as I tested them a while back and they worked then... 😤 I dread to think that people have messaged me and thought I've simply ignored them... 😨
If you've messaged me via the contact forms on either the Anti-Sell or SteveMorganAuthor sites recently, it's just come to light that the forms randomly stopped working at some point recently & I've not been receiving messages. Sorry! I've not been ignoring you. 😅😫 Trying to fix them ASAP. Thanks.

• Host more ‘intro to D&D’ taster sessions for new D&D players,
• Look into getting into paid DMing,
• Keep doing the CoS/Ravenloft videos! 🌫️

Last night my players defeated Hazlik (Darklord of Hazlan) in a three-phase battle. They'll probably have another session or two wrapping up & leaving Hazlan, and then I can do my Hazlan Part 2 video. It's mostly fully prepped notes-wise, so hopefully I can get it out quickly... 🪄🌫️💥 #Ravenloft

Last night, my player-who-also-DMs-for-me wrapped up her homebrew campaign, which has been going monthly since early 2022 (IIRC). Hence ends the story of Ammi, my Gem (Amethyst) Dragonborn Wild Magic Sorcerer. Godspeed, Ammitak - you were a lot of fun to play. 💜
