Today’s #RandomRPGCover is my favourite RPG of all time: the first edition of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. Grittier and more realistic than D&D and AD&D, my gaming group and I absolutely loved it. #wfrp #warhammer #oldhammer #rpgs

The UK countryside is full of interdimensional portals. You just have to know where to look. I've decided to make a thread here of some of the best ones I've found on walks. 1. JRR Tolkien's Psychedelic Lime Kiln.

I can never resist getting inside an old lime kiln. This one was near Newton Abbott. The view up through the hole in the top of it to the overhanging trees on the ledge above is, I have to assume, even better than listening to the second Doors album on acid.

16. This is the kind of thing I live for on walks in the deep countryside: a 200+-year-old abandoned walled garden, totally overgrown and teeming with wildlife and ghosts. Finding lost magic places like this, untouched and undeveloped, always fills me with weird kind of hope.

The entrance to the walled garden I found the winter before last in north Nottinghamshire, with its broken door and big ivy hat.

A wide doorway in the same walled garden, still here, hundreds of years after being built, even though its accompanying manor house has been knocked down. I hope some bastard doesn't redevelop this.

Ruined potting sheds in the same walled garden, forming a selection of sequential portals, each of which leads to more vegetation and staggeringly beautiful dereliction and decay.

This month was set to be one of my worse sales months, which correspond strongly to my health...and, then, someone went through and bought every book in my sci-fi series. I don't know if that person follows me, but, if they do...I saw that and you're amazing. It was a horrible day and you fixed it.

A few months ago, after a few difficult days (weeks?) at work, I stumbled across something that struck a great vein of nostalgia. It was a recently released collectors edition (part 1 of 5) of an old role playing classic for Warhammer Fantasy Role Play, The Enemy Within campaign. 1/3

With everything that’s going on in the world it feels strange to be trying to promote a book. But FUTURE’S EDGE is available in paperback, ebook, and audio, and I think it’s one of my best. Grab it now from @titanbooks.bsky.social or your favourite #book seller.
