I was really pleased the audio drama got some award attention. I’m particularly proud of the best writing nomination from the Webby Awards. I had such a fun time working with everyone on this. Long hours and little rest. 10/10 would totally do it again.

How do you know you’re an old person? When your car is doing something weird, and you immediately grab the manual from the glove box — responsibly stashed there since day one — only to spend five minutes flipping through it before remembering you have a phone and Google exists.

A lifelong inspiration. I’ve watched his movies since I was a teenager. Blue Velvet and Wild at Heart to Twin Peaks and (of course) Dune… the world just got a little less trippy. And I’m sad about that. 🥺 Go have yourself a PBR or some coffee and slice of cherry pie. #davidlynch

I dreamed the guys @ Reverie Studios invented a Miskatonic toaster that darkened your bread to the level of your corruption. Now I’m thinking of the innocuous home goods that could drive you insane. The corrupted ice machine in your fridge. A favorite fork or coffee mug. reverie.studio #cthulhu

After watching #ThePenguin my very first thought was: Sofia Falcone is a feminist icon for our current era. Cristin Milioti was amazing.🤩 Give that woman an Emmy. And Deirdre O’Connell, too. The writers did such an incredible job getting you to root for these despicably villainous characters.

If you’re looking for new shows this #audiodramasunday please consider giving Clawmoor Heights a listen! It’s a Downton Abbey-ish ghost story with a sprinkle of courtroom drama. Just released the finale last week for Season 1. ~4 hour binge. #clawmoorheights #ourbrilliantruin #audiodrama

Great article from Wargamer about #OurBrilliantRuin #DnD folks-- I talked about a lot of things, and of course, they pick: “Our character creation mechanics allow players to flesh out their character in about 15 minutes,” claims Rachel Wilkinson; “Let’s see DnD top that!” 😇💕😇💕😇

This free, Bridgerton inspired DnD rival is weird on so many levels

Strange, Edwardian fantasy horror RPG Our Brilliant Ruin has art-deco vibes Dungeons and Dragons can only dream of - and weirdly, it's free.

Congratulations to my friends at Journeys & Tales for Seraph. It was a lovely weekend, and I've seen up close how much time, creativity, and energy they’ve put into the larp over the past year. I'm proud of them and grateful for their commitment to building these experiences.

Signs of a Workaholic #73: Take the day off work because no one needs anything from you. Sit at desk anyway, handle a work question, and respond to work email. Then, wandering aimlessly, turn on Star Trucker to do pretend work for free. My truck is cute tho. #startrucker
