#COMEONIN hits crowdfunding October 2026 in partnership with @plusoneexp.bsky.social.

Thanks to @scragend.bsky.social for this fantastic cover.

The cover of COME ON IN, A Southern Fried Small Town Mystery. It showcases the title, subtitle, and Wes Franks as the writer. There is a yellow ribbon with the Carrion Comfort Crime logo. The main cover has a smiling vampire woman with twinkling diamond eyes. She looks like an angel. There are overlapping images of skeletons, a red crucifix, two detectives, the swamp, an oil refinery and a car's headlights.

Still awestruck to see LEGENDS in the Gauntlet & CfB community not only listening to my scrappy little show, but enjoying it!

I’m so proud of the work everyone is doing at Kitten Marlowe, and I *do* think it deserves its flowers. But AP is such a huge ocean, I’m still surprised when we’re noticed!

I’m about to get on a five hour flight, and wouldn’t it be super cute if I landed and saw that some new people checked out Kitten Marlowe, which just celebrated a download milestone and is currently playing through an AP of The Between ttrpg?

I think it could be pretty cute 💕

One of the moves in @jasoncordova.bsky.social’s The Between is Taketh Away, which requires you to destroy a Side Character physically, spiritually, or socially. And yet, nothing could have prepared us for the social devastation that was laid upon Dame Teasdale in our latest ep.

I love this game…

It’s hard out here for a fledgling non-DnD show, but I can’t be thankful enough for all of the early support Kitten Marlowe and Shadows in the Smoke have received. We are even getting love from people who have only listened to DnD! Carved from Brindlewood really is that girl. kittenmarlowe.com/smoke

"We have far more TTRPG systems than we could ever need."

Correct, 100%, no notes.

"We need to do something about that."

Yes, we need to make more.

We're just starting to get good at it.

I love it when I can watch TV and guiltlessly call it GM Prep.

What is your favorite thing you’ve watched in the name of ttrpgs?

I would love for TTRPG reviewers to remember that “this game is very different from 5e and D&D DMs might find it challenging to understand” is not a universal negative.

Character studies of three characters from The Critshow's Unsinkable miniseries. It has the Stoker, Elga, who is a big strong woman with suspenders and curled hair. She is singing a song. There is the Viscountess Burgundy, draped in dura and finery. Joined by her friend and servant, Freddy. Then there is Dr. pierce. Who is tired, smoking a cigarette and feeling the effects of too many drugs
