The Day before GameHoleCon. Had 🚗 probs but got here safe. Got the AL Hall set up. Went to A Taste of India …great biriyani! Ran into too many RPG superstars to name. Just glad to be here among everyone! In bed after workout to get rested for my session tomorrow! Wardens of the Eastern Marches!

Participated in game demos at Omaha’s AfroCon 2025! Refreshed on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Dice Masters, learned Forest Shuffle and Burger Battle! No D&D Starter Set takers, but fun was had. Learned from the ALCU; PoC creative experiences were spotlighted in many insightful and uplifting ways!

I say my three thank you’s: to my mother, the Lord Buddha and my sobriety. Exercise every day for at least 35 minutes. At night I go over my gratitude list for the day. Repeat. Keeps me in a positive state of mind most of the time.

I used a soup sock for the first time tonight to make Thai noodle soup. I needed one more bouillon cube which I added later, but got the star anise, cinnamon stick, green onion and ginger perfect!

Did absolutely nothing I had planned and a-lot done that I didn’t plan, and STILL ended up in bed ready to re-read this Grim Hunt: Burning Vengeance adventure for GameHoleCon!

Spent most of the afternoon spinning up on GhostFire Gaming/Grim Hollow’s The Grim Hunt OP for GameHoleCon and it reminded me that our GH:Transformed work is on D&D Beyond!

For the love of all things wonderful in this community, write it! We’d certainly benefit from the insight. Maybe also benefit from responses to what you have to offer as well.. from project leads in our space.

Marcello the Valiant DM is at GameHoleCon ‘25 @mdvaliant573.bsky.social · 22d

Go get it! I hope it’s a wonderfully rewarding experience for you and everyone else that you will help by having it.
