A swirling pool of slithering things. A dinner party gone wrong. An anomalous garden tended by strange beasts. Here's another encounter from the upcoming volume of DRINK. More to come each week on my blog. Snag community copies of volume 1 over at my itch page! shortrestpress.com/2026/08/25/f...

FRINK! was featured on Skeleton Code Machine. I’ve been reading SCM for years at this point. It’s hugely helpful and I recommend it to pretty much anyone with an interest beyond just playing games. Thanks Exeunt! www.skeletoncodemachine.com/p/d6-onepage...

Wrote a blog about frinkin' it up and letting it rip. How I think about making games. shortrestpress.com/2026/08/03/l...

LET IT RIP!

That’s kind of my mantra these days. All-out. Whole-ass. Just do the dang thing.

Body parts weren’t the only thing left on the cutting room floor when we were making FRINK! I’d make process videos of how much writing is just taking a hacksaw to things, but that’s not nearly as interesting as watching Merricat do her thing. #1prpgjam #ttrpg

DRINK Vol 01 made it to #3 on Itch's New & Popular page. The algo skews really heavy for new releases, so it probably won't last long, but it's still really cool to see for my first zine release. I'm putting community copies up for every purchase! Go and snag it! It's free! #morkborg #rpg #zines

I’m so inspired by what the tenaciously imaginative folks in the indie TTRPG sphere are creating everyday. It’s really a marvel.

Got the zine into actual hands. Said hi to a bunch of people that make cool stuff. This was an awesome #adepticon, but I want to do and give more for next year. See you all around!

It's incredible finding @chaoclypse.bsky.social on youtube years and years ago, now seeing their name attached to more and more great work that's coming out. 1000% deserved. THIS LOOKS RAD.
