I've been in a mast cell flare for a week. It looks like one or two of my core safe foods may suddenly be off-limits. I need to restock my supply of the few things I can eat. All my available funds are going to Oct rent & COBRA. I'd be grateful for some help with groceries. 🫶 ko-fi.com/lynnemeyer

It'd be rare for me to fight anyone on Trove-style piracy sites, but if you're posting my work on Scribd, where the site requires a paid subscription and makes a profit from my work that I don't see any money from, wtf is wrong with you?

In late 2022, an FLGS asked me to run my own 5e adventure (no longer in print). I showed up with pregens, ready to run, looked out at the 9 players (???), and realized I couldn't fake it anymore. I apologized to the 5e fans and spontaneously threw together a hack of 24XX.

NEW FOR SOLO SEPT: 86 by @carrion-comfort.com 🍽️ A fine dining-themed solo RPG w a fiery mechanic. Rise through the ranks then open (and run) a restaurant of your own. Reflect on prompts and burn them IRL. What will you incinerate to come out on top? Your relationships? Your principles? Your health?

The cover of 86, A Solo Game About Losing Your Passion, A Carrion Comfort game. The cover looks like a red-checked tablecloth with a white square napkin on it. The title is printed on the napkin

An interior example from 86. The lefthand page is titled 86 the Chef and gives instructions for using a Joker. The righthand page goes into detail about what The Joker means and gives the player a handful of prompts to answer if they choose to use it. The pages themselves are printed like a recipe book in a three-ring binder, laid open on a red and white checked tablecloth
