The Gist is a Blog

Okay, bye.

Honey, coffee, journal, Portland. (at Portland, Oregon)

Fists with your toes. (at San Fernando Valley)

How I use background music to make my RPG sessions sing.

Playing D&D with @hellcowkeith for the Internet. (at Chicago, Illinois)

Sunday morning in Minneapolis. Heading home soon. A lovely fall is falling here, hopefully on its way to Chicago with me. (at Downtown Minneapolis)

This thing is getting some play at @nerdconstories at the CAH booth! I'm learning a ton about it and a fascinating history is unfolding for the Firekeepeers. (at NerdCon: Stories)

Wherein I write a bit about what it was like to haunt (or write a haunt for) the new Widow’s Walk expansion to Betrayal at House on the Hill. The expansion reaches store shelves — like a spectral hand reaching out from a bleak and webbed attic — this week. Somehow, my name is on the box. 

And in half of those scenes, they do not interact (thanks to frostbite or carbonite). That’s a damn shame.

I got a chance to play this at Gen Con. No kidding, this could be a classic, one for the ages. I am mad with jealousy and thrilled to live in a time when magic exists.

The bridges cross cold waters and the hills there touch the sky. #Skye #Scotland #visitscotland
