What's this? Moi? Winning the Banquo Award?
I was so surprised and honoured to receive this award that it took nearly all my willpower to not bawl like a baby on stage.
Thank you @conpulsion.bsky.social @gregorhutton.bsky.social and everyone who has supported me in this journey <3

The duct tape was actually us. We were concerned that the mailers we bought would burst in transit and decided some tape would help prevent that :)
The damage was Royal Mail though! XD
Thank you so much Robin :)
That's a really cool idea :D

This is so exciting :D Can't wait to see what the EUphoria crew get up to <3
I feel that so much. It can be easy to fall into the self employed trap of "Time Spent On Business = Good" to the point that everything else ends up getting kicked aside. I've been trying my best to remind myself that I do Blackwell Games to give me the freedom to do all that other stuff.
