I guess it's 2024

trying to find where the time goes

I published a thing:


It's not entirely finished yet, but I managed to brush up the main bits I have playtested into something that can be run at the table, a full year and a half after I first wrote it.

I think it's a wonderfully spooky and silly sort of dungeon. I did some collage art and have been playing with layout. DIY lifestyles mang. Any feedback would be appreciated, as I am fairly new to the layout stuff.

I had run it three times over the course of maybe 8 sessions aggregate. There's a greenhouse section in the works, about as many rooms as the mansion, with some weirdness I need to sort out. Which brings me to the main point of why I am writing this....

Which brings me to this wonderful article by Roll to Doubt, which has been inspirational. And it has brought me back to what I had been considering as a method by which to do the sadly abandoned #Dungeons23. I will try to craft adventures. No strings, no expectations, no plans. My ambition is often a source of sabotage. I was best at poetry when I flowed with the vibe. Then I chained myself to the muse, recently I have chained myself to ambition. By working at a craft I can entertain whimsy, I can revel in the mercurial impish nature of my mind with the only expectation of creation.

Quality will come, and I can cannibalize as I see fit as I go along.
Fragments and palimpsests, this is how I will vibe.
