Free journaling games workshop at 2pm TODAY!
Some days, fate is on your side.

@games.mothspire.com, @junkfoodgames.bsky.social, and I are running a journaling games workshop at @peoplesbooktakoma.com this pm. I was pondering, "Where am I going to get some scrap paper and pens" -- then stumbled across this trove of discarded office supplies!
