Not following the news has been a wonderfully therapeutic and calming process for my brain. I highly recommend it. The less noise, the better.

After entirely too long of a wait, I've finally uploaded the audio files for Enora Online Book 9 for approval. For any of you who have been waiting, it's almost here. Thanks for all your support and patience while we got it produced.

We should all be willing to poke a little fun at our insecurity, if only to adopt the ability to have a therapeutic laugh at ourselves. This is gold.

TTRPG development is a daily delve down one or two of myriad rabbit holes. But unlike writing novels, I'm finding I'm consistently juiced by it. I think it's because the natural bounce between creativity and mechanical works for my ADHD brain, so I don't get bored.
Enora Exiles is going rock.

I decided I was going to take rare time off for this holiday to be with my brother and his family, who I rarely get to see.
But as we stand on the AirBnB's back porch overlooking the sound as the cold wind off the water causes shivers among the family, I'm thinking about elemental resistances.

I'm starting to think 'alignment' is too mechanical of an expression of species natures. My TTRPG is a narrative-based experience drawn from the locations and politics of my LitRPG novels. I'd rather have the shades of gray than defined alignments. What do you TTRPGers think?

As a LitRPG author who employs voice actors to narrate his books and, as a TTRPG developer who likes to see how people play games, I can't imagine more entertaining content than @criticalrole.bsky.social They make me laugh while serving my business purposes. :)

Yesterday it was feats in the TTRPG, today it was listening to audiobook chapters my narrator sent back to me while jotting musings about feats into Xtiles. There really is no escaping this work, but at least I do it out of joy in what I'm doing. There isn't enough joy these days.

It's nice being on a platform that isn't designed to distract me every 1/100th of every 1/2 revolution of my scrolling mouse wheel.
Could we please keep it that way?

One thing that's kick ass about writing a #TTRPG based on my books instead of a book is I can take a break from monotony and make a map of a place I envisioned seven years ago. It's a WIP, but it has potential.

When I worked for the man, I looked at the clock and wondered why time had to drags its ass. When I'm writing a LitRPG book or working on my TTRPG, I look at the clock and wonder where the day went.
I prefer the latter.

#Oura Ring is easily top ten of the most incompetent companies I have ever ordered from. Wrong size of my wife's ring, no sign of the second ring I ordered, jumping through hoops for over a week with customer service, told the ring I didn't get was activated, CS doesn't understand me. AVOID THEM.

I guess I better introduce myself!
I'm the author of seventeen #LitRPG novels in the Enora universe.
I'm currently developing a #RPG based on that world for a Kickstarter early next year.
I live in NC with my wife and editor and friend and goddess.
I worship at the altar of curiosity
I'm inclusive.
