Just signed the contract, so I’m happy to officially announce that my story, “Hard Times at the Four Pines Motel,” - about how cool it is when they invent teleportation…until it isn’t - will be published by Short Édition. I look forward to sharing it with you all soon.

You see games very differently when you start making them.
From a player's perspective: Mario travels across the Mushroom Kingdom!
From a dev's perspective: Mario is banished from the universe when he touches a flagpole. A perfect Mario clone is birthed and dropped into level 2.

An interesting part of the start of any new ttrpg campaign is that no one knows the players' characters yet.
The DM hasn't met these characters so they only know them as descriptions.
And the same applies to the players.

Everyone starts off thinking they want writing advice but slowly finds out what they're really looking for is writing _confidence_ to get in the chair and do the work.
