Also the producer for DIE, Hollows, and Voidheart Symphony at Rowan Rook and Decard. All views are my own unhinged ideas, and are not RRD's fault.
Four books to get to know me.

I am composed of way more than four books. But these are the books and authors I, and @critlore.bsky.social, most often see the impact of in my writing.

Going to a small, local comic and nerd con tomorrow. It's not that I don't enjoy explaining what a TTRPG is to new people, but it is an 8 hour day, and not everyone wants to talk to vendors anyway... so I have made an introvert-friendly sign.

Ahem. *taps mic*

WE'RE NOW AVAILABLE IN FRENCH!

The brilliant minds at Neoludis have translated These Wretched Tales - our three solo horror RPGs - into French as La Trilogie Horreur.

The release is at OctoGônes in Lyon, 10-12 October.

Get 'em fast, folks.

You doing #SoloSept?

My solo games are my bestsellers by a LOOOONG shot, and you should give 'em a go. Particularly good for:

23: A unique mechanic (wanna do Wretched & Alone without a Jenga tower?)
24: A journalling RPG

Another week, another convention I'm not at... but THE BOOKS ARE!

Compose Dreams are at @tabletopscot.bsky.social, and they've got the Orpheus game, the zombie game, and the urban horror and Victorian ghost system-neutral adventure anthologies.

The Halloween decorations are out in TK Maxx, so it's spooky season. Them's the rules.

Here are some spooky TTRPGs you can pick up, on itch or on the designers’ own websites. Many of them are free, all are A-grade, certified scares.

Many of them are by my mates, because I have cool friends. 🧵

@ipr.bsky.social has One More Song - the only solo tabletop TTRPG where you get to fix Orpheus's mistakes, and make a cool playlist to do it with - at PAX West.

You've still got one day to get it!

I'm bad at timezones. You may still be able to get it today.

I got a tattoo as a little payday treat. And now, for being such a brave boy*, I feel I deserve a takeaway, or perhaps a new binder, as a follow-up treat.

*It took all of 20 minutes, was painless, and I really enjoy the sensation of being tattooed, I was not in fact a brave boy.

Heartbreak lovers of Bluesky!

Retrieve your lover from the arms of death?
Deceive yourself that it might end differently this time?
Do it all to a playlist of your favourite tunes?

Great news!

You can - and with @ipr.bsky.social's help, you can now do so in print.

Same sentiment, but for this bad boy.

It's 1995 again, folks

I did in fact buy some cheap bits of pine and make... a box.

It's not glamorous but it sure is a box.

I am of course professionally obliged to remind you that Monty Python's Cocurricular Medieval Reenactment Programme is NOT a roleplaying game but a serious set of historical educational material.

There are many brilliant things about #Pyrkon but today's highlight is this squig I could have fit my torso in.

One More Song is a journalling game that uses a playlist to plot and describe scenes from Orpheus's journey to save Eurydice. Only this is your take on Orpheus, and Eurydice, and every other character and location from the myth.

It's a love story. Sometimes a complicated one.

I know, I know, talking about how shitty AI search summaries are is a waste of energy, but look at this. I mean... look at this. All I wanted was to see whether the attendee list for the UKGE Creatives of Colour mixer was online. And... come the fuck on, Google.

Umm... I dunno if I can sell Apparition anymore, folks. Ghosts gone. #UKGE

On Saturday at 2pm, which is very much NOT the advertised time of 12pm, @loottheroom.bsky.social, @irny.bsky.social, @voxparlour.bsky.social and I have a panel on fun ways to use folklore in your TTRPGs! We're in Hall 4 on something called the main stage. You probably can't miss us!
May 28, 2025 at 7:41 PM
This time tomorrow I'll be in Birmingham for #UKGE, so this is THE LAST CHANCE to announce/forewarn you of my movements!

We went to KFC. The staff member who handed us our food threw in a free popcorn chicken for Spud.

Spud was NOT ready.

Is this anything?

(Fairly obviously, the humanoid and the dungeon door are traced, I'm not pretending otherwise)
