I think I'll just eat some pie

Wow, lots of crap slinging has been going on around the OSR Blogosphere. I am a bit saddened that Stephan Poag decided to not stick it out since the fun had been drained out of it. Well, as for me, I'm choosing to keep it light and just kick back and have some pie and put some adventure ideas together for my soon to be formed game group! I hope to be back at the DM helm when I get back from GENCON. I hope all's well with everyone else!

    Woohoo for pie. Surprised Cake hasn't been here yet. I beat him here. Go me.

    As for the drama, I'm not sure which you mean but I hope you don't let whatever it is get to you. You know, you'd probably feel better if you let Daisey make you that cape.

    Ha.

    Yep, it's sad that some people have been forced out by the negativity, but I reckon the best way to fight it is to keep your chin up and just carry on regardless, if you can. So yeah, keeping it light and having some pie sounds just about right to me.

    Why not a pork pie? You'd kill two birds with one stone.

    @Whisk: Get your mind out of the gutter! Here's some pork pie info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pork_pie

    The Pork and Cherry picnic pie looks ... well, English, I guess.

    I've never actually tried a pork pie. I'm a pretty adventurous eater though so I'd definitely give it a shot.

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!

Image
  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. Both are incredibly bright and very different from each other (my son has lots of friends and is very bright and gregarious if also very lazy while my daughter is very retreating and shy but incredibly driven and motivated). They both love fantasy and fantasy literature, movies and gaming has been a way for us all to connect. Though often what works for one, doesn’t necessarily work for the other. This brings me to my point, I am working on trying to best accommodate the needs of my neurodiverse daughter and include her in an experience that she very much wants to participate in, but often feels frustrated and overwhelmed by. This is an introduction to our journey so far. ...

Ostensible Cat Update – State of the Cat and Looking Forward

Image
Wow, it's been three years since I’ve posted here. I’ll be honest, I’ve been doing a lot less gaming and a lot more art. Since my last post regarding gaming with my daughter, I think my daughter and I have found it very frustrating to make much progress in playing D&D 5e. Now, before this comes off as an old school gamer bashing newer systems, I think it has less to do with 5e and more to do with my evolving views on what works for me in gaming. 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...
