Seizing a day off to make some cozy goblin food - and what’s more goblin than smashing things?! 🪨 😈

Smashed potatoes baked in a rich “blood” sauce alongside roasted fowl legs and some swamp greens (🥦broccoli!).

Well, that was a busy day! I took part in the @britfantasysoc.bsky.social BFS Online event, interviewing the charming Philip Reeve, managed to squeeze in some words on Rise of a Witch Queen, then chatted all things folklore with @worldanvil.bsky.social for @worldanvil.com

Game night at The Thirsty Dragon! We’re between campaigns right now so we pulled up to a local tavern, grabbed a cold ale, and strategised about our next quest! 🙌✨🥰🥳 Our new party is called Investigators of Metaphysical and the Paranomal… or IMP for short 😅😂

Song of the Loom by Janet Forbes I Sang to the loom, the day my mother died.   My hands were an echo of hers. Heavy with grief, they wove eight hundred threads onto the frame, a hundred for each string of her Lyra. ...

This story out today by @worldanvil.bsky.social is incredibly beautiful and spoke to my grief when I needed it most this morning.

I've never done this on social media before but...

...my brilliant assistant is moving on to pastures new after three years. I am looking for someone to help me out. They need to be able to *get to North London easily, regularly*, energetic (it's often a dashing-around/carrying stuff job)...
