Hello Readers!

It's been a long March and not much has been happening here while all my energy has been on the launch of my TTRPG Kickstarter (see @emilygreymoore.bsky.social)

Apologies for the quiet but you should start seeing more news very soon!

March Edition Update

Hello Readers! February has been a busy (and short!) month and I'll be honest... I haven't even started Ed#4 yet!

Some of you may know that I also have a TTRPG called The Cunning Folk, and on Feb 28, I'll be launching a Kickstarter to finally see it in physical print. 🧵

Things are getting tense in this episode... and the world is starting to show more of it's shadows.

One of the best parts of the month is when we receive the monthly horoscope readings from our anonymous oracle.

A really great reminder that layout is just as important as the writing itself.
Recently, I came back from a work trip and took the time to write a blog post I'm very proud of about how TTRPGs have to cater to more than one audience and how designers can use layout as a tool to do just that.

Question to all fantasy and fiction writers:

Do you have your story set out at the beginning, and you write confidently, guiding it to the conclusion you designed?

Or do you have an idea of something, and as you write it evolves a life of its own, pulling you to the end it wants?
January 27, 2025 at 2:56 AM
You know when you see something that you just have to make a note of for your writing later? If this isn't worthy of being in a fantasy/horror story I don't know what is!
Ever wonder what snow in the swamp would look like? This is 5 miles into the Louisiana swamps in the Atchafalaya basin... it's unreal... having lived down there for the first 28 years of my life, we never saw anything like this.

Smashed records.

Hey fantasy writers of BlueSky... do I count as a fantasy writer?

I'm not writing a novel or anything, but it's a genuine project that I love.
January 26, 2025 at 2:41 AM
With issue #3 coming out next week, I thought this was a good time to remind people what it's all about.

One thing I've learnt over my tenure as a creative. No story is unique. Everything is a reincarnation of something that has been before. And you know what? That's okay!

Let that story have a new life through you!

Our illustrator (also editor, journalist, social media manager, and intern) @emilygreymoore.bsky.social out did herself with this incredible capture of Chronogate!!

Pay no mind to the posters... probably nothing.
