Take 10 minutes today and #write something.
Anything.
Every little bit of writing strengthens your communication skills and bolsters your creativity.
I know 10 min might sound like a lot to us ADHD folk, but I promise once you start, 10 min won't feel like enough.
Start with a single word.
A black dog looks at the camera, yawning.
Here's my sister in law's dog, Liza!
A blonde woman in a dark red shirt smiles at the camera, holding a book called Burnaway.
A picture of the credits page from the book, Burnaway.
It's here! It's surreal to hold this book in my hands-the 1st TTRPG I project managed from start to finish. It's been a long road, but I'm happy it's here! (And we shipped early! 💪)

Hey #ttrpg entrepreneurs and creators! I'm working on my interview schedule for next year, and if you're interested in chatting about your work & processes, let me know! I've got a contact form on the website to help streamline the process:

We’re still in the holiday season. If you’ve been given a game or product from a small #TTRPG maker, you can give a wonderful gift back:
A 5 star review on their site.
Why 5 star? Because anything less tanks them on search engines. We live & die by these reviews, so please be thoughtful.
Hi from Bowser.
Today, we're slowing down & thinking of next year.
Something that helps me focus is picking a theme word for the year. Listen to today's episode & then let me know what your word is!

A poster with a green background with the title, “Lexathon Stream-tastic Raffle-bration Holi-ganza”. Underneath that the subheadline reads, “a wonderful weekend of holiday fun, nonstop tabletop, a Strix U reunion, and a gigantic raffle! Your donations will help them get from Columbus to Chicago!” Beneath that it lists the dates of the streaming events, from Friday November 20th to Sunday November 22nd. On Friday it is listed that there will be Video Games, Holiday Music, and guests at 4pm EST. On Saturday morning at 10am EST, Magic: the Gathering, worldbuilding. On Sunday, in bigger font, the label reads, “Strix U: The Night Before Strixmas” at 1pm EST. Lastly, on the bottom eff of the poster, there is a small text that reads, “and a mutual aid raffle featuring some of the coolest people in TTRPG’s and Magic: the Gathering”. And to the left is the url for Lexi’s twitch channel, twitch.tv/blackgirlmage, and to donate early there is a kofi link. Ko-fi.com/blackgirlmage.
HAPPY HOLIGANZA!!! I have been trying to afford my move to Chicago (and being able to quit my job) for the past full year. This holiday season I invite you to help me get my holiday wish, raising enough money to get there and afford living while I find a job!
It was lovely chatting with you!
