Just a friendly FYI to all my pals here at the Sky o' Blue. I began this account solely for RPG talk and general nerditry. I get enough politics and doomscrolls at my other socials. This place is my escape. So if I unfollow you, it just means your posts have tipped the scale from "Fun!" to "Ugh..."

All right, dammit. I live 50 minutes away and I miss it EVERY. DAMN. YEAR. Next year, I'll be at Origins for the entire event, running a bazillion games in my friggin' backyard.

For Free RPG Day, I cobbled together an adventure for the Monty Python Cocurricular Medieval Reenactment Programme. For fans of the not-an-RPG, I present "Dead of Knight"! Curious what became of The Black Knight after his duel with King Arthur? Play it and see!

And once again, I *completely* miss out on Origins, although I live an hour Noirth of Columbus. I swear, my feeds are always FILLED with announcements and discussions of Gen Con, Gary Con, and every other gaming com in the Midwest, but Origins manages to ALWAYS slip under my radar. Is it just me?

As I wrap up yet another RPG project, I went through my list of on-going writing projects and was kinda stunned at the number of concurrent adventures I have underway. Without naming RPG systems, here's a list of adventure titles I have written or are in process of writing:

OK, so HERE'S a "blast from my past"! Years ago, I was really into LARPing. I was a member of the IFGS and edited/wrote for their newsletter. I even had a cartoon that appeared, "Sir Tendeth". Here are all 15 of 'em in their amateur glory. Some of the jokes are *very* LARP-centric. Enjoy!

Whoof. I started my Kickstarter with a laughably small goal that I thought I'd reach in a couple of days. At the halfway point, and I haven't reached 50%.

-sigh- I started a Bluesky account to *escape* the doomposting. Even have a wordlist set up to avoid any/all mentions of certain topics and folks. But even with all that in place, today has been fairly intolerable around here.
There will be no escaping this for the next four years, will there?
