I'm good, but I'm not 'try and withstand all the fascism while also properly promoting a kickstarter' good (I live and work in DC it's so fun!). If you've backed anyway, I see you and I appreciate you so so much.
Haven't yet? It's the last day: www.kickstarter.com/projects/str...

$1k!!! I can't wait to put this book in your hands.

It's close to $1k. Like. A couple of backers away. ๐๐๐๐
Splendid Souvenirs funded! I meant to post yesterday but then my house LITERALLY flooded (I'm not kidding. so much water.)
Want to read more about it than my skywriting? Check it out:

Over halfway...
It lives!!! Live and ready to back.
This is some good stuff. I own both books, consult the blog constantly, and will be picking up this one. 10/10 do read
I know I haven't been that active here - I said I would launch my kickstarter Tuesday and I still technically want to, but.
The weight of the world, man. It's a weird time to live and work in DC.
Thinking about a fun promo idea for Splendid Souvenirs (you know, the #a5e magic item book with the Kickstarter lauching next week):
Comment a number between 1 and 49 (the item portion of the book) and I'll tease something on that page. Art, item name, description, etc.

Oooooh I love that! Giving out knacks is such a cool idea.
I love it (although I'm biased, obviously). It's so easy to pick up coming from 5e and it just feels so much better to play! I've not looked back.
I have a Kickstarter launching early February with a ton of magic items, curse tables, and sentient item rules - first of its kind for #a5e but also compatible with #dnd5e!

Also: I would like cool lefty/nerdy/gay patches for my jacket. I already have a NASA patch and a little planet embroidered on, and I have the cross stitch waste fabric for tatreez on my inner left arm... does anyone have recs?
Your support literally is what gets this project off the ground. I hope you'll consider following along so you get notified right when it launches!

A black and white illustration of a bottle. Half of the bottle has an eerie mask overlay with an expressive eye; a splash of the liquid within forms its pupil.
Third: lots more original art! Our artist, Claire Busch, studied product design, so each magic item has a really unique visual look that, if I do say so, makes them really stand out amongst fantasy items. Seriously, look at this potion of deception:
Second: everyone who's writing on it is experienced, both at writing and at doing kickstarters. The book will be in your hands very shortly after the kickstarter ends as a result - it's basically all but a few layout touch ups at this point.
This week has been SO busy, but I wanted to talk about Splendid Souvenirs and why you should follow it (which you can do here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/str...)
First, I'm pretty sure it's the first magic item book for #a5e #levelupa5e. Not 100%, because I'm not omnipotent, but...pretty sure.
As of today, I am able to take the 'paperwork pending' qualifier off of being a PhD candidate! Certificate should arrive soon.
Now I just gotta write the dang thing.
I also do layout (like, for my day job now), actual plays/podcasts (check out the Starcrossed Seaway on Youtube for evidence that I have a problem when it comes to alliterated s-sounds), and I drew the covers for both Kickstarter books. So: that's me! โจ๏ธ if you made it here you get a cookie: ๐ช
Back on #DMsGuild, I also have a zillion mostly system-neutral things under the Dungeons and Djinn moniker. DMsGuild searches still seem to be bad on mobile, but this link should work on PC: www.dmsguild.com/m/?author=Du...
I also threw together a little #a5e adventure that's perfect if you're trying to gently deWizardsify your table. I want to do more of these, so I have two half-written. www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/4...
This is actually my second Kickstarter. The first was for Stranger Sights, a book of monsters and exploration challenges, also compatible with #a5e and #dnd5e:

Why should you trust this team to make magic items? Well, we've all written for Level Up before (although only @steampunkette.bsky.social is on #ttrpgsky so). I'll let her post her very cool stuff, but I'll keep sharing mine downthread:
Happy Friday! I want to do a thread about all the things I do, but we're starting with the big, scary one: a prelaunch #a5e Kickstarter! Compatible with #dnd5e of course, but with more depth and complexity (can I say rare spells?). Follow it!

...unless...friday. ๐๐๐
Saturday it shall be! And if you know of other bloggers/podcasters, I can write and talk ok, or so I've been told. ๐
So...if I, hypothetically, had a cool #a5e project to announce. Like, really really cool.
...What's the etiquette for self promotion? What do I tag things as? Last time I did this it was in the Bad Place
Yay! Enjoy ๐งถ
