I have thoughts. Well, I have an introduction to write. This has been a project long in the making, and I'm sorta sad that we're nearing the end. But also, the end. Kudos to @patrickswenson.bsky.social for keeping the dream alive.
(Also, love that cover.)

EPHEMERA, the newest Jack Cady, drops in November, & here's the cover. This is the 3rd volume of his collected short work. Once, this was the last volume of the collections, but there will be a 4th after finding more work in archives. Intro by Cady Collection originator @markteppo.bsky.social

So damn sublime. Go listen, everyone.
The next episode of Midnight Radio will be dedicated to David Lynch: spectral 1950s ballads, the murder-jazz of Bohren & Der Club of Gore, a sludgy Chris Isaak, some water, a well, the whites of the eyes, and a big dark hum.

Four days in on the Vortext of Blood Kickstarter. Over 80% funded. Incremental steps, dear friends. Meanwhile, I’m noodling with card designs as I consider stretch goals.

An important thing to remember. Every day, if necessary. Eventually, we'll turn it into an acronym. MSBIF+E+YC.
Okay, maybe not. But do it anyway!

As I noted in Make Your Own One-Page RPG: "Make stuff not because it is perfect and slickly made. Make stuff because it’s fun, and engaging, and because you can. hope this guide inspires you to create your own one-page TTRPG."

I have seen proofs of DOOM & MADNESS, which means it is time to finish up the rest of the stretch goal shenanigans for the Kickstarter. I get to revel in really terrible contract language. #nightoffice #makingshitup #thecreativelife

One of the best parts of being an independent creative is thinking: “Yeah, sure, there’s going to be karaoke nights in this canon. I should make a thing for it.” And then going and making a martini while the printer warms up.

Finished a layout pass on the King in Yellow edition of In The Mansion of Madness, revisiting and rewiring the meta as I am wont to do. Long game prep for the Queen in Red Expansion.
