  • I am not living under an ancient Chinese curse (Currently).

    Nope…it’s been pretty boring. This came to light due to some earlier posts making a reader cry…and I realized I haven’t had much of that lately. Life has been quiet and relatively free of that ancient Chinese curse: May you live in interesting times. Which is okay. I have several web projects going (yes, go…

  • Writing the time away…

    I suppose I should write something longer than “I’m Here” statements. We’re at a lull in work…just a lot of little things that take no time to do. I’ve quit Pagan Pantry. It was fun for the last year…but Paganism isn’t a food religion…there’s only so many times I can say: Be kind to those…

  • Genghis and Story

    I was at Genghis this weekend. Lots of fun. But really, who cares: My short story was accepted! It’ll be published in March!!!!!!

  • The Progress Meters are Breeding!

    Ah yes. Three new modules for Ghengis. Nanowrimo. An idea for an RPG. And a web comic who still needs solid character sketches and a script written. Plus I am working on WH again. (Really I am). I’s Crazy.

  • Thinking Ahead

    Tacticon was extra fun. Had a few weird moments but I’ll get to those. The Serenity game, both slots, were just awesome…the players really got into it. I think it’s a little too weird for J. but he had fun. Throughout the con I got the most comments from that game. And really for those…

  • Cars and Pulp!

    The Serenity module is done. Just needs a print out. Well two print outs. I have my next Pagan Pantry column to finish before Thursday too. Paranoia is coming along. I have to add the histories to the characters and get them into the correct sheet for Friday morning…and I have to write out the…

  • Modules, Back, Bed and Data!

    More on writing Modules: Character generators! Don’t scoff ’em. Creating characters for a BYOC game is the most important and the most time consuming part. But having a computer either randomly generate the base numbers or pick and choose using a character program for your chosen system speeds things along immensely. Once you have the…

  • (Re)Writing Modules Part II

    こにちわ！ おげんきですか？ I figured out a long time ago that I needed a template to write modules. My first foray was in Dungeons and Dragons 3.0 modules. Let me tell you…the RPGA template sucks. It lacks a time limit structure and there is too much room for fodder that you don’t need in a four…

  • (Re)Writing Modules is Hard

    こにちわ！ Rewriting three modules has been hard. All were in various stages of doneness. To date I now have only one complete module done….and really it still needs tweaking. The Witch module is the hardest. I have the least experience in this and so it had the least done. Sure the book is available online…

  • Sooo Tired

    This weekend start with making characters for a pulp game using FATE rules. Like many gaming systems that have popped up over the last few years, it uses changeable attributes to define character. This is bit more loose than Serenity RPG or the Unisystem. Where else but pulp can you have an adventure called Jenny…

  • Phoenix Con, Cat and Passings

    The weekend was good. Not great, good. It started with a two hour flight delay. The first day we were fully there my games were canceled. So I painted. Alot. I found Crunch Waffle. Their minis are amazing and have so much detail. I’m behind on mini pictures because my friends camera’s have been unavailable…

  • Ghengis 2007

    Serenity went awesome. There will be some character changes in the next one. I promise not to traumatize any more martial artists. Pimping is up to the players. I have a few other ideas for games as well…lets see how many I can write for TacticonBencon is still an unknown factor at this time.. I…
