Switching things up a bit

As you can see, I've been playing with the layout a bit. I kinda like this one so I'll probably go with it (with a few tweaks of course). Gotta get ready for my day job so more later...

A little playing around

So, I've been going through some of my older work and giving it the colour treatment. Daisey does most of my colour work but I do like to play around with the tools a bit. Here's a few of my older pieces that appeared on this very blog some years back that received the colour treatment. I've got some ideas brewing, hehehe. Let me know what you think!

Neurodiversity and Dragons - the adventure begins!

  Tl;dr: Kia ora all! I don’t often post much about my personal life, but as a parent of two neurodiverse teens, I reckoned that I’d post some of my experience in gaming here on our journey. My daughter was diagnosed with autism almost a year ago and my son is dyslexic/dysgraphia with ADHD like presentation.

It turns out that my preference in gaming is maybe moving away from class-and-race-based ttprgs as exemplified by D&D and its offspring. Now I’ve been playing TTRPGs since 1981, so none of these is new to me, but I think in that time, I have identified the aspects of gaming that really don’t flow well for me. Since I’ve been a late-life assessed neuro-spicy person, the masking and desire to just nug through things has just completely evaporated. Character creation seems to be a very challenging process for both my daughter and m...
