So proud of all my Royal Academy of Music students. Assassins was absolutely brilliant, followed by a lovely cabaret. Bravo!

My latest light-hearted Thespian Gamesmaster guide to #Daggerheart - looking at the Bone Domain, much to my dog's delight.

I've attempted a lighthearted #daggerheart video - an antidote to minmaxing tierlists, it's a thespian guide! More to come if it's popular... www.youtube.com/watch?v=mu98...

My #Daggerheart campaign has started! I love the freeform combat, and the improvisational feel. Congratulations to @spenserstarke.bsky.social and all involved.

Just finished @timclare.bsky.social 's wonderful tome about the story of all of us, "The Game Changers". Emotional. Bravo to a fellow autistic player of games.
