Seeing RED (and black and blue)

And it's a good thing!  I've started editing the Delve! Zine manuscript this morning, getting by with a little help from my friends.  Thanks for the great work to my stalwart proofreaders!  So it looks like everything is coming together nicely.  I'm thinking the final release will be in July.  I still have the interior artwork to do and finish the edits.  I'm also working on ideas for Delve! issue 2 in which I'll probably expound on some things in the first issue.  Not to mention, I'll be participating in a crowd funded Lamentations of the Flame Princess adventure.  James Raggi has put together a very cool lineup of folks for a series of Weird Fantasy adventures (check out more here).  I'm going to be one busy dude as I am going to be doing the art, maps and writing for this adventure.  Not a lot to say other than what I'm working on has some elements of the Tunguska Event, the Sir John Franklin's disastrous expedition to find the Northwest Passage, and John Carpenter's version of The Thing (amongst others).  While not directly based upon any of those things, it will definitely be informed by them.  I'm excited about this project and very much looking forward to see what the other creative teams come up with.  Well, I've got a Father's Day treat of hiking in the Italian Dolomite Mountains followed by some work on Delve!  I hope all of  you Dads out there have a great day and happy gaming!

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. 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.   For s

I like pie!

Cyclopeatron made an interesting blog post which I tend to agree with. Most conent posts don't get responses but opinion posts do. I've noticed the trend in my own blogging as well. There is some incredibly interesting content being generated out there in OSR blog land. I think folks tend to react more to opinion pieces because no one really wants to 1) either say your stuff sucks on a blog post or 2) only say "that's cool man". I tell you what, I cherish the "that's cool man posts", it at tleast let's me know folks are paying attention. As to the your stuff sucks, well those are OK too as long as they tell me why they think my stuff sucks so I know how to try and improve it. At any rate, I like pie. It even tastes better when I had to kill an orc to get it ;).
