Thanks to a writing competition on Raspy Raven I wrote a scenario for @paulbaldowski.bsky.social's #deesanction (3rd place! 😱) and now it's available on DriveThru.

It's set in free royal city of Kežmarok where a strange malady has fallen upon Count Laski... www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...

Inching ever closer. Here's a sneak peek at the layout!

Couldn't be happier with the results so far. Our layout artist, HTTPaladin, is working on some flourishes of their own design that we are looking forward to!

A year ago I started an experimental monthly event of story games on Raspy Raven discord (thanks to @jwmuk.bsky.social) and now a year later, we play 2 story games each month - we tried 16 of them. So much fun in all different genres was had! Can't wait what the 2026 will bring 🙂

Ran Public Access, The House on Escondido Street. A Carved from Brindlewood style mystery, soaked in nostalgia for the 80s/90s with creepypasta vibe.

Interesting emergent mystery rules, interspersed between watching VHS tapes from a defunct Public Access channel.

Could there be a British version?

I run a free #TTRPG Discord called The Raspy Raven (link in bio) that organises a diverse range of games across the globe and occasionally we even produce scenarios to buy and meet up face-to-face.

It sounds like a promo, but I'm very proud of the community we've created & the many gaming memories.
