Slowly I Turn, Step by step...

Yes, I'm still alive and kicking!  I've been incredibly busy relocating Team Bingham and Ostensible Cat HQ from Italia to our new home base in New Zealand!  We've been incredibly busy traversing the globe and for the past two and a half weeks - getting settled into our new home in Wellington.  Lots of changes - new day job, new country, new continent (or microcontinent I suppose), new hemisphere, 12 hour time change, opposite season (it's winter here), and well, just about new everything.  We're still settling in, but I feel that I'm now to the point where I can start re-emerging into the scene a bit.  Found an art store so I stocked up on supplies.  Now to seek out the local RPG scene (so glad they speak English, it'll make it easier for me to get my game on).  I've got some commissioned work lined up and I'll get back to work on Delve!  issue 2 - it exists!  Also wanting to expand my operations a bit because I am no longer under the constraints that were imposed upon me in Europe.  So, as I get settled and into my routine, I'm looking to doing things like offering original art, stickers, zines (of course) and other stuff on my Etsy site.  More to follow gang, and it's good to be back!

    Thanks guys! It's been pretty much written for some time. Just some odds and ends to catch up with and art to get done. Steve Zieser did some great pieces and I have a few more to do. Ron Redmond did the proofing and some editing. I actually need to buy a new scanner/printer so that's on the agenda along with a few more art supplies.

    Yes, winter there. I always think it's neat that there's winter somewhere always, in the world. Glad you all made it there safe. Please tell your honey bunny that I said hello.

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 ;).
