Book Realm Revisions turns 9! It has been a wild roller coaster ride and sometimes I didn't know HOW we stay on the track but we have made it. I have fun upcoming appearances and announcements in the last few months of the year. So stay tuned!

Theme: Friends and Supportive Partners Wrapping up the week, I am celebrating one of the main reasons why Gen Con is one of my favorites. My husband and I fell in love with the games and the bonus was the friendships we build along the way. I have the best husband.

Theme: Tornado Day One of the wildest events at Gen Con this year was unscheduled: a tornado hit the downtown Indianapolis area. I was rushing to my next event in the Lucas Oil Stadium when I snapped this photo and told my husband to wait on taking our goodies to the car. The rain was too bad.

Taking a breather to celebrate the big & small things in July: • I played Spirit City: Lofi Sessions, Spiritfarer: Farewell Edition, Wanderstop, Moonlit Peaks, and Pal World. • I met two LinkedIn acquaintances at GenCon (shoutout to Mila & Laura) and networked with several publishers and creatives.

Current projects: F-Infiniti, War of the Imperials, and (TBA) Plus One Exp game.

My video & podcast episode with F5 Collective was released this month, you can listen/watch it on YouTube, Spotify, or Apple Podcasts.

Turned in the latest D&D homebrew supplement for one of my independent clients.

Wizards of the Coast announced Nauctis: The Sunken Realm, Kamigawa: Titanbreach, and Zhalfir coming to 2027. These sets were amazing to work on!

I read nine market research books in July.

My website has been revamped and revitalized just in time for Book Realm Revisions' 9th anniversary in August! Thank you Hyper Digital Marketing for the level up.

A tool that I have used consistency for 102 WEEKS is brain.fm. It is mind boggling to see that number. Whether for focus, relaxation, or sleep it has certainly been well worth the annual subscription. No I am not a paid marketer for them, I just love the music. Call to Freya is one of my favorites.

Copyediting is reviewing an agreed upon style rule 500 times throughout a story or TTRPG to make sure you are editing it right. For example: Emerald-green tie but their tie was emerald green. #Editor #Copyediting #StyleRules #TTRPG #Fiction
