This is exactly the news I’ve been hoping to hear about UKGE, kinda wish they’d announced it on their comms, but this just proves that change CAN happen if you shout loudly and proudly about something. 💛

So precious! The Hatchlings crochet prototypes are here. Each one will be cuddling a teal d20. If they prove popular at the SPARKS shop, we’ll commission handmade dice for each dragon!

Over the last 7 years @luseals.bsky.social has contributed some joyous characters to our TTRPGs. Next year we’ll be producing the Inspired Edition of INSPIRISLES and adding many more illustrations to the already vibrant pages of the original game. Thanks for your dizzying imagination, Lucille! 🫶🏽

What video game series have you played since childhood and will still invest in when a new title launches? For me, it’s always been The Legend of Zelda, but I wish I’d discovered the Persona series earlier than my 40s 😅

At the SPARKS shop launch we’ll have… - Hatchlings RPGs + anthologies - Elemental pup pins - Cryptid pins - Scout patches - Journals - BSL tea towels - Greeting cards - Crochet dragons - A3 prints - Sticker sets - Custom dice sets Exciting range of awesome human-made products coming to Bristol!

Going to post daily writing progress with my overall mood and a snippet from BENEATH SILVER STITCHES. I hope this will provide motivation for myself and other aspiring authors. #YA #WIP #WordCount #WriterLife #AuthorCommunity

I backed up behind a wall, not taking my eyes from it, not even to blink. A regular wolf would’ve been scary enough, but the Barg stirred an uncanny fear in me, something I wasn’t supposed to experience growing up in a country free of dangerous predators. Was this how Bilbo must have felt confronting Smaug in his lair?

Haven’t had that type of emotional reaction to media in years. I bought the gold box and cartridge of Ocarina of Time on its release in 1998 from Woolworths when that was still a thing. Seeing the remake today, with the obvious passion and resources dedicated to it, has left me a happy wreck!
