Hey tabletop gamers it’s the last 30hrs to support this rad solo journaling RPG created by @sulasullivan.bsky.social if you can, please boost this post and share it with your friends! 💖 www.kickstarter.com/projects/sul...

A Black person wearing an orange and green , oversized stripped T-shirt smiles at the camera. Behind them is the text

MEET THE CREATOR OF SINCERELY, LYING A SOLO JOURNALING RPG

Sula Sullivan is a chronic daydreamer who loves creating cozy and magical stories. When not scribbling or hoarding fancy notebooks, they're chain-drinking cups of tea.

A mock up of what the RPG book will look like. On the cover is a Black woman with a red hooded cloak and wolf at her side. The title says Sincerely, lying in fancy white font. There is a notebook with the words: what is a solo journaling RPG? A crash course.

Text on a light and dark brown background:
A Solo Journaling RPG...
Is A tabletop game you play
alone.
Is part storytelling, part
journaling.
Uses prompts, dice, or cards, you create an adventure one word at a time.

Sula Sullivan made meme.
A woman sits daintily on the kitchen table with a thanksgiving spread in front of her. Above the picture it says: Me trying to entice you into supporting my solo journaling RPG.

Seasonings have the text: homage to black southern culture.

The greens have the text: dark academia aesthetic.

The macaroni and cheese has the text: open ended prompts.
