In the panel above you should see links to pages about the games I’m currently playing. Those pages will have links to blog posts with actual play posts, technique thoughts and houserules. Other pages that aren’t at the top of the blog at the moment are:

I wrote a few Medium articles that might be helpful to DM’s:


In which I have a conversation with you about techniques that are shaking out at the tables where I sit and inspirational media.


And sometimes when I’m really lucky I get to jump on the Actual Play twitch channel and stream games with friends. Here’s the youtube channel where our games are archived.

Below is our Classic Traveller Playlist. At around episode 5 we began playing the scifi megadungeon, Gradient Descent.


Something I've been thinking about regarding GMing:

The essence of it is - describe something to your friends that puts them in a position to make interesting decisions.

Everything else is just details and chrome.

The quote above is clearly me not remembering the famous Sid Meier quote about game design: “Games are a series of interesting decisions.” Thank you to those who have pointed that out.


At the bottom of most blog posts you might notice links to my Threadless shop. A few years ago I started combining my librarian’s passion for finding old out-of-copyright pics and general geekery with the Affinity Art Suite and this Threadless shop was born. I set up the shop so the proceeds that would go to me go to amazing organizations. As of November 30th, 2023, the shop has earned $710.67 total for organizations like Medshare India, Fair Fight, National Queer and Trans Therapists of Color Network, National Center for Transgender Equity, National Network for Abortion Funds and many more.
