Hurrah! My article on the Twilight 2000 RPG in the Journal of American Studies is now open access (OA), so anyone who wants to can have a read. OA is important to me, as I want my work on RPG history to go beyond the academy and reach the gaming public.

Postie delivered some goodies today (I had a mini-splurge following a conversation with @joebankswriter.bsky.social re an upcoming episode). Flicknife Records releases of 12" Hawkwind Zarozinia and 7" of Mike and the Deep Fix's Dodgem Dude/Starcruiser. Time for a spin!

This one's a bit out from release but it's starting to come to form.
This is turning into a one track song, but instead of the usual drone/neoclassical bummer music, I am trying my hand at prog rock odyssey style simply because that's where the improv is going. Ha.
