MSM knocking it out the park yet again with another incredible discussion.
We're joined by @friede.bsky.social, @itsquinns.bsky.social, and @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social for a wide-ranging, two-hour discussion about actual play's use for teaching games and how we understand skill and learning in TTRPGs and beyond.

Looking for a #horror tale to get you into that autumnal mood?

Wayward Autumnal is a sylvan horror of feminine monstrosity. A dark fairy tale in a lush, twisted wood 🍂

It's completely improvised using Under the Autumn Strangely. It's an audio story, but I put my whole ass into the visuals. ENJOY!
This just makes me think really hard of the Wayward Autumnal AP (put on by @annethegnome.bsky.social, game by @thismaybegraham.bsky.social), which I really need to dig into and finish this season

Honoured to be nominated for best instrumental song at the @critawards.bsky.social for the Wayward Autumnal theme. It's such a great, unique and creative series, and making music for it was a lot of fun.
