November is always an interesting month. I thought I'd do a pretty wide variety of options and styles for the Stock Art Theme. This poll will close on October 19th! You can vote as a FREE member of the Stockroom. (But Basic Stockroom Members' votes count double!) www.patreon.com/deeplydapper...

Over on my Stock Art Patreon, the theme this month is Folk Horror! All month, I'll be releasing a new human-drawn piece of art, and at the end, patrons get it all to use in their commercial projects. #folktober #inktober

Aspen keeps leaning over and trying to eat pieces of the pumpkin print on my shirt, thinking that they are carrots from my salad that I dropped for her. She is less amused than I am.

Our pup Aspen was SO happy the sun was out today. And yes, that is the top of the picnic table. Our golden dragon cares not for the laws of man nor etiquette.

I met Nicholas Brendon several times at cons - He was at one of our first shows, and I remember Linz being super shy about going up to him. We made him a custom soap that he LOVED and snagged over the years. He was always super nice and charming. Sad to hear he is gone. RIP

I don’t have any art to share, so here’s a picture of my dog Aspen in front of the fire. She’s tired of winter and all of this…everything. Can’t we just sit in a comfy spot and read a book?

The fuzzy foursome decided that I needed to stop working and rest my injured hand and read. They also decided that I no longer needed legs.

We are going to have to fund a new print run of Tombpunk to replace the defective books we have/to get backers functional books, so we figured a new adventure book would be a great addition to it. I finished the cover tonight!

Smörkhammer, my skirmish madhouse game built on Forbidden Psalm is going to have an option for a 2-player boxed set in the Kickstarter. I know meeples are kind of an outlier with skirmish games, but I cannot wait to see how this does when it launches.
