It feels like an age since twenty hardy souls helped raise the first funds toward the original softcover of The Dee Sanction.

Now, as I edit a new adventure, one of those folk who chose a feather trader by the name of Rupert Dalton has found a home in the Ossulstone Hundred.

The first line thing. Anyone can make a compelling first line of a novel by adding "and then my grandmother exploded" to the end. Try it, you'll see.

"It was a crisp Autumn day, the clocks were striking thirteen, and then my grandmother exploded."

Hooked.

In TTRPGs, if you like making huge, detailed character backstories...try a game where you come in with no backstory and let your GM and players give ideas!

If you never do character backstories, come up with a really cool, developed one for your next game!

Try new things!

Karen & I did a sister game to Clades: Clades Prehistoric. It's the same game but with extinct animals, such as pterosaurs as "sauropsids of the air" instead of birds. Kids love dinosaurs! You can play both versions separately or together. #evolution #kidsgame

I hate Linksys Velop so much, they took a straightforward procedure and wrapped it in so much black box it makes it impossible to troubleshoot. Mesh networks were a mistake. I don't want to replace it though because next year we're moving and our new place is going to be smaller.

Anyone have any good book recommendations on Storytelling more related to business/leadership and less on things like RPGs? I have a friend looking for a place to start. (thanks!)

Huh. Now that I got some tips on Affinity (huge thanks to @rpdeshaies.farirpgs.com for the guide), IronFrame is more or less ready to go! Now all that's left is to determine a release date, so stay tuned!

Heard that "Anything worth doing is hard" quote again today and I'm not your dad but that is some toxic bullshit in my opinion.

You know what's worth doing?

Democratic Senator Shaheen says ending the shutdown wasn't a failure because it achieves a later vote that will get Republicans on the record.

That it IS conversational speech is important precisely because it's part of WHY it's so resistant to firm adherence to novel structures; because it's *your conversation,* and games aren't written to directly shape it NEARLY as much as they think.

Resign right now, you useless, ineffective, Quisling little coward. Go count your money and get out of the way for someone who cares about saving America from this tyranny.

You did this, and we all know it.
I will not support the Republican bill that’s on the Senate floor because it fails to do anything of substance to fix America’s healthcare crisis.

I was just thinking about a company I worked for that was always short-staffed, but insisted on 90 min team calls every Mon & Fri, where they would make "exciting" announcements of new benefits for staff nobody asked for...which they'd never actually deliver.

F that company. I'm glad it's dead.
