Geoff Gander
@geoffgander.bsky.social
Writer of horror and dark fiction, creator of TTRPG madness for Gallant Knight Games, Sentinel Hill Press, and others. Not an evil cultist - honest!
One of the best moments for me during @canconsffh.bsky.social was getting my copy of Year’s Best Canadian F&SF, edited by @ourmankoto.bsky.social. 2024 was a lean year for me, fiction-wise, but I’m so happy “A Vine Entwines Them” (which first appeared in Abyss & Apex) made it in! #writerslife

Doing some work on a #CallofCthulhu project for @sentinelhillpress.bsky.social while commuting to the day job. Fitting in what I love to do into what I must do.

Really looking forward to @canconsffh.bsky.social this weekend! #writerslife #ttrpg

Ripley will always be the real female action hero archetype to me.

Home safe and sound from @canconsffh.bsky.social!

Thank you to the Con Committee for providing a wonderful event that’s often the only time I see my favourite people, and to everyone who attended my panels and workshop. And a hearty hail to new friends!

Now to plan new creative endeavours….

Another first for me! Issue 50 of @gallantknightgames.com's TinyZine has an article I wrote introducing six NPCs for Tiny Cthulhu! Each has a backstory and motivations, and just because some might be "good", that doesn't mean they're helpful. Likewise, the "villains" could be unlikely allies...

#amwriting for the next #TinyCthulhu adventure for my gaming group. The scenario is set in Canada’s Prince Edward County in the 1920s, so historical research is a must. There was a lot of rum-running there during Prohibition, and it’s a place I explore on the page and in reality.

I have a new dark fantasy story in the next issue of Abyss & Apex, coming July 1st! #newfiction #amwriting

@fionaplunkett.bsky.social has a much better camera than I.

We saw some last night.

Enjoying the weather today while I get over a seasonal bug. More #ttrpg writing this weekend. While @fionaplunkett.bsky.social explores Salem, I’m reading folktales from there for inspiration.

Prep for another session of #TinyCthulhu. What better resource than Arkham Gazette, from @sentinelhillpress.bsky.social?

Full-on research and writing mode for my latest project. Digging down into the rules to cover interesting scenarios in the final battle of an adventure. #ttrpg #amwriting

Great news!

“Woods over Yonder”, a spooky/cozy, rules-light #ttrpg that I wrote for @fatgoblin.bsky.social, is now available in print! Travel the Forestways between towns and villages, and discover the truth behind those old folktales…

Prep for my next session of #TinyCthulhu (a great game by @gallantknightgames.com) requires research on the setting for my adventure (Canada’s Prince Edward County in 1925), as you do. #amwriting #research #horror

I can say, with absolute certainty, that no shenanigans, conspiracies, or madcap creativity took place @canconsffh.bsky.social. We were just having a social call.

So excited to be returning to @canconsffh.bsky.social, and connecting with writerly friends old and new! The road is not so long, in the end.
October 14, 2023 at 12:28 PM
I’ll be at @canconsffh.bsky.social tomorrow! But today I’m working on a #ttrpg project. What will it be? There may be cosmic horror elements to it.

Maybe.

When I’m not trying to create things, I help Mother Nature with whatever She chooses to grant me. These are not the biggest pineapple tomatoes from my garden, and there are still more growing. I never thought I’d enjoy gardening, but it’s satisfying. #FarmCraft #killertomatoes
