I'm not much of a podcast person, but I absolutely love this one. Great people playing great characters. Thoughtful, silly, occasionally EXTREMELY stressful (positive).

Can't believe it's only been a year! Happy birthday, gang!

It’s been one whole year since we released the first recording of Twilight’s Edge! With over 5,500 listens of the show & a handful of awesome award nominations, we couldn’t be more proud of how the show has grown.

Send a big congrats to our lovely cast & help us celebrate our 1st birthday! (1/7 ⬇️)

Fun fact: Lowen started out as an NPC in my home game. I enjoyed playing him enough to want to explore playing him as a PC, and while the NPC and PC are now two very different people, I'm very happy I made this choice!

Anna plays Lowen, the hellspawn wizard!

@peculiarplanets.com is a queer and neurodivergent writer and AP performer from the Netherlands. Lowen has had a rough time in the second season of the show, but it’s made for some excellent story telling!

When @chrifu.bsky.social asked me to be on this podcast I was instantly excited, but I don't think I could've anticipated just how much fun I would have with this group, this party, and this character. Here's to another year <3

It’s so funny (/s) that I once said that I didn’t really need insurance against injuries as a freelancer bc as long as my brain still functions I can write..

..and then being diagnosed with FND lmao

I would like for my brain not to be mush every day thank you 🫠

I get to roll physical dice when playing on Foundry VTT because it links the result. For my @tumblethrupod.bsky.social friends, it looks like THIS when I win

(This was my 2nd roll for making this video, lucky!)

Hearing @antiquehorror.bsky.social play Warhammer 40k (the ttrpg) in the other room is very fun because I’m getting out of context sentences like “What about a second mechadendrite?” and “Give that girl some tubes”

Yesterday @antiquehorror.bsky.social and I got to see @autoheart-official.bsky.social, who not only gave a wonderful performance but also took the time to chat to fans afterwards!

I didn’t have anything proper for them to sign, so they signed my luggage claim tag 😂

Such a fun night ❤️

fiction is a safe space to think of unsafe things

if you feel it's messing you up, step away. don't assume it's messing everyone up and you need to eradicate it because you caught a case of the feel-bads from something. go sit with that and think about why instead of pissing in everyone else's cheerios.

We've had a fantastic launch day thanks to all of you! So thank you, truly.

Etheres is my favorite story I've written. This book helped me process loss and grief in a way I never anticipated.

I'm so excited to bring it back to print and share it with you all!
