About

After reading so many RPGs, playing so many RPGs, and thinking about everything that is the medium of RPG, I decided I needed to put my money where my mouth is, and actually create an RPG. The following are the posts of me detailing my thought processes.

NOTE: All references to games and RPG systems are to be considered “as of writing.” New versions of games might render some of my comments inaccurate.

Here is a collection of all my short stories:

Bright and Terrible

This story was made using the solo RPG Bright and Terrible, by Rose on Mars.

Welcome one and all, to my collection of all my books, short stories, posts, musings, and other little oddscrawls that crawled across my brain. This website may change format semi-regularly as I experiment with format and schedule; I appreciate your patience as this repository evolves.

Currently, I am involved in uploading the following projects:

Short Stories

Whether old or new, I am constantly writing short stories. Some of them are created through solo RPGs, others are made without such structure. Some of them are from many years ago, written on my commute to work.

The Ever Lord Series

My white whale; a setting and project that I’ve struggled to finish for almost a decade now. Instead of writing a series of books, I am instead trying to write it as a series of short stories. We’ll see how well it goes.
