I'm making one last push to let people know about this online talk -- sponsored by the British Library in conjunction with their current exhibition on fairy tales. The live stream starts at 7:30 tonight, but if you buy a ticket *before* the event you can watch it any time over the next 7 days.

Ugh, M&S has revamped its Sparks scheme. Instead of discounts coming round on types of product, a spend on types of product gets you a balance to use on future purchases somehow. I suspect usage will go down.
This Is Just To Say
I have turned off
the AI features
that were in
the update
and which
you were probably
hoping
to monetize
Fuck you
they were stupid
so unnecessary
and so annoying

Reminder that I've got a flash sale on a selection of #ttrpg minigames and others in the Silver Branch store. Probably take it off tomorrow.

Absolutely incredible.
NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone.
Watch with sound on.
On this day in 2019, I witnessed one of the coolest things ever. A lenticular cloud lit-up by a setting sun over the Perito Morena Glacier in Argentina.
Gamers! My friend Jodi Black of Pinnacle Entertainment Group and Legacy Game Tables is in a hospital ICU, on the list for a lung transplant, and she could use your help.

Two hooded figures with lamps approach a moonlit, isolated cottage. A woman answers the door. We have come for the child, says the hooded figure So soon? she asks It is time, says the hooded figure. The woman is distraught. We should never have got him a library card! What is done cannot be undone, says the hooded figure We couldn’t see the harm! We just wanted him to enjoy reading! For most, it ends there, says the hooded figure, turning away and walking into the wilderness Oh lord, What have I done! says the woman, the child walks past her and out into the darkness with them. Do not cry mother. I am a writer now.

From our warehouse, won’t be long.
Interesting, thanks. I suspect I'll stick to DriveThru. But here are a few bits of feedback, having taken a look at your site. Could use an About page that says who's behind it; and FAQ info about how you handle taxes (like EU digital VAT). Also the how do I get paid faq doesn't actually say how.
A section from the product cover. At the top, the title 'Savvy and Skill - a class and domain pack' in gold and yellow sans serif font on a dark purple background with a slight texture. Below, part of an image with a male merchant or thief, on a faded-out background of a city scene.

One of those looks familiarly suspicious.

A group of people, including a man holding a birthday cake, pose together in a living room setting.
The image shows two people in a room, one older man and one younger woman, each holding a birthday cake with candles.

I went in a few mins ago and there was no one there.
It's a good idea for me not to stay up too late, but boo.
a. Editors are crucial to the publication process. With just one exception, every editor I've had has either improved my book or notably improved my book.
2. Any publisher using AIs for editorial is not actually editing their books.
Δ. In my experience, AI editorial like Grammarly is often wrong.
What's inconvenient about a CD player? Put disc in, play music.
And Walkmans are literally a convenience device. Don't wait to play music till you're at home.
... In fact, let's have a weekend sale on a selection of minigames. Kapow! (Might take a few mins to show on the site.)
And once you've got Sanction at that fantastic price, you can get my genre setup Wild Hunted. ;]
It's modern fantasy. Characters have been in contact with the otherworld in various ways, and while they have weird adventures it's hunting them down.

From the blog - talking and writing about your TTRPG is often hard. Here are some tips for telling people what they need to know, and not heading off in the wrong direction.

In the UK we call them lifts but in the US they call them elevators, because we’re raised differently.
It's also probably not true, for running costs if not embodied energy. Low-energy buildings exist.
