Brotherwise Games Co-Founder. Geeky dad. Game designer, art director, and chief Cosmere officer. Trying to make the world a more positive & joyful place through games.
Earlier this year, my wife and I went to see a 90's cover band and had a total blast. So we found a similar band and did it the next weekend. Then we found a dive bar with live music, and another local venue with a great DJ. Then we realized that nothing stops us from doing this every weekend!

One of my professional dreams is working on an Avatar board game. Brotherwise pitched for the rights twice. The second time, we got so close that we started art! We planned original pieces, but we were also working with @dmacalvert.bsky.social to paint over stills from the show. Here's an example!

Today I was invited to give a career talk at my son's high school, which was supposed to include a section on your career path. I presented mine like a board game, and I think the result is pretty cute.
My message for the kids: don't expect your path to a creative industry job to be a straight one!

I've lived in the LA area for almost 20 years and somehow never made it to Frank & Son until yesterday. It's like the merch stalls at a con, but always there! My son and I had fun checking it out. I got a few Magic cards (including some lucky pulls) and he got Pokemon cards and Demon Slayer merch.

Took the day off to celebrate Beverly's birthday! We spent the morning biking up and down the Strand, ate steamed crab and Korean noodles for lunch, then enjoyed a lazy afternoon. We've been celebrating birthdays together since we were teenagers and life just keeps getting better. 💕

This week's hike: going off-trail in Lunada Bay. The little guy did a great job traversing some pretty vertical areas, and we were rewarded with awesome tide pools full of baby crabs.

My 16-year-old is interested in getting into politics, so my parents gifted him their collection of political buttons dating back to the 60s. Here are a few of them.

Saw Grandaddy in concert last night at the Fonda. They played all of the Sophtware Slump (which came out 25 years ago! 😭) and a selection of great songs from other albums. Pedro the Lion opened and Conor Oberst was in the audience. It was a very indie rock night with @dzevans.bsky.social!

This week we're dropping off our 18-year-old at college, so there have been a lot of goodbyes. But the toughest was with Jack's 16-year-old brother, D. Here's what they said, through tears, as they hugged each other.
D: I don't know how to be without you.
J: You're better than me. You'll be great.
D: I don't know how to be without you.
