Hello Stranger,
I'm Epidiah Ravachol. You may have heard of my #ttrpg work, like Dread, the horror game that uses Jenga; or Swords Without Master, which can be found in Worlds Without Master, issue 3.
I've been at this indie truly-true role-playing game publishing gig for about a quarter century.

Folks,
The Unwritten Earths Symposium is an publishing partnership betwixt two indie #ttrpg veterans, namely @ndpdesign.com and myself.
We've got an itch store that has some old stuff from both our catalogs and the Adventure & Hobbyist Annual we just released this year:

In self-interest but also general interest, folks: Black Friday is coming up, and small publishers/independent creators will always be a better choice than megacorps.
When the sales drop, please remember that!

Had to install chrome to test some web stuff and that fucker went and made itself the default browser without asking.
I solved it, but looking up solutions all I got were links about stopping edge from doing that shit.
Not a fan of either of these jerks.

As long as we're being Thursday for things, I need tell you how the formation of @unwrittenearths.bsky.social has lit a fire within me.
I am so pumped to get the Swords Without Master fix-up out there, and a lot of that has to do with the talent and vision of my co-conspirators.

I am pretty wildly pumped to get to work with Jabari and Goran - two artists I've been a huge fan of for YEARS, who have definitely had an influence on my own work!
