I recently completed my 100th game project since starting freelance in 2011, and it felt important to say thanks to some very important folks: game designers. Without your enthusiasm and craft, the last decade of my life would’ve been much less awesome.

GAMA did the right thing to cancel Origins Online, and made a bold and righteous statement to meet the moment. However, their official statement unintentionally erases the POC who took a stand, and this is teachable. Long form response attached:

I know the show is sadly on hiatus, but do you know what is still fun and not on hiatus? Birthdays. Specifically, the birthday of our amazing co-host @cgsunit. Consider popping over to her twitter account and wishing her a fantastic day! 🎉🎂

Congrats to @MarriedMeeples who won Brew Crafters and Microbrewers!
Hello Friends! I’ve been saving these for a themed giveaway, but now seems as good a time as any to just give them away. Like, retweet, or reply to enter. That’s Brewcrafters, Microbrewers, Homebrewers, and the OverkilledStorage insert for Brewcrafters. etsy.com/listing/561069336/b…

Our first winner is @erked! Congratulations! And yes, I said first winner. As Eric already has Brew Crafters and Microbrewers he's asked that I share the love more, and so I get to give those away separately.

Last chance! I’m be doing the drawing and announcing the winner Monday morning. They’re starting to lock things down more here, and if I’m going to get it mailed out it has to be soon.

I’ve been asked how long we’re leaving the giveaway open. Rebecca pointed out April 7th is National Beer Day and would be a fitting time to do the drawing. Should we wait until then?
67% Yes, National Beer Day!
33% No, next week.

Putting my money where my mouth is: I will match the first $1000 on GoFundMe for this scholarship seeking to diversify the pool of board game designers. Please RT. And please make me write a big check when I get back from playtesting this afternoon.
If you’d like to help us give some designers the chance to experience Unpub 10 or future events, you can do so at: gofundme.com/f/pathways-fell…

Congratulations Rebecca! Amazing things for an amazing person.
The arrival of my MSLIS diploma in the mail today couldn't be more perfect, as just this morning I interviewed for a 40hr Children's Librarian position in my current dept and 2 hrs ago HR called me with a job offer, which I excitedly accepted! Today is magic. 😭🥳🦄😻

In the past ten days I've been working on implementing a solo board game, which is not accessible out of the box for blind people, as an Alexa skill. It's currently in beta, message me if you want to try it out. #blind #accessibility #BoardGames

Many people think ASL is structured just like English. Here’s part of my working script for Wingspan. Spoiler alert: far from English! 🙃

Interviewed @moregamespls for @PlayabilityPod. I've admired Ross' work for a while and our talk today made me admire him even more and also made me sad that there's an ocean between our game tables. If you haven't seen his work, look: moregamesplease.com/
