Some BIG NEWS from me!
I wrapped up my day job this week to become a full time game writer.
I'll be freelancing for Chaosium amongst other clients. Definitely open to collaborating on cool projects - I'd love to work on some indie games too.
In any case, be prepared for more chaos in 2026... 😸

My desire to matchy matchy all my books was strong, so now I have three signed doorstoppers of The Will of the Many and The Strength of the Few, which will now need their own allocated bookshelf.

If you're in Melbourne, I'm running The Hammersmith Haunting as part of a spooky event at Elder Gods & Dragons in Carlton on Saturday 1 November.
Come along for the gaslight vibes and maybe some insanity along the way...

Headlice is my favourite game of PAX so far.
Absolutely madcap parasitic adventures, but they got the mechanics just right. Hilarious.

Genuinely shocked and amazed to have won the award for Best Scenario for Resort at the Australian Industry Roleplaying Awards.

I am so glad I'm not the first person to think of this in Tainted Grail. Laughed so hard when I got a trophy for turning someone into cheese.
Also you can cast cheese magic, that is all. 🧀

Chaosium Con Australia was an absolute blast.
I ran my game Resort (hijinks ensued), signed books, met some wonderful women in ttrpgs, and played a bunch of Cthulhu and Pendragon. 🐙 #callofcthulhu
