Hey all!
I'm Peter aka Jimmy Shelter, a TTRPG designer/writer from the Netherlands.
You might know me from my weird city solo journaling games A Visit to San Sibilia & Hiria: the Eternal City, or from my meddlesome kids game Pine Shallows.

I thought this might warrant it's own post.
I quit my job. Free time starting the end of December.
I do have some ideas on what I want to do next (no tech anymore, that's for sure), but first a bit of time off. Which does mean, more writing time!

Also, I quit my job, which means I have a lot of free time starting January.
So, this kickstarter might come pretty soon:

Pine Shallows as written doesn't contain any rules for combat.
Still, people do ask on how to handle combat (and my own players are also known to start a fight).
I wrote up some guidelines!

I don't have the ambition to be a big rpg designer, I just want to be big enough for it to make sense to be asked as a stretch goal contributor.

If you are thinking of gifts for Xmas this year, my book about tabletop games, The Game Changers (UK, other territories) / Across the Board (US, Canada), is out in paperback, audiobook & ebook. I think it is good for anyone who loves boardgames old or new, or who likes stuff on culture & history.

What's your favorite 3 stats array in a roleplaying game?
