I started out with “I’m just gonna write a quick trashy mafia romance just for funzies on a dare aaaaaand it’s turned into an empire building crime drama with romance and family secrets and high stakes crime politics with witty banter and dark humor sprinkled liberally on top”

@cedarlili If it’s any consolation, I got 100k words into writing a “lite mafia dark romance” before the two main characters finally kissed.

I'm at 3400 words and I haven't introduced the dragon yet. This... might not be a quick little short story?

New sticker design. My son requested I make him a “grumpy rain frog” and this was the result. Kid is super happy about it.

@trolllordgames Usually in campaigns I have to use some blend of classes to make a Pirate PC or NPC, like rogue, fighter, bard, or even ranger. I think it’d be much better to have a specific class that takes a mix from these classes in a way that’s balanced and doesn’t require multiclassing

@trolllordgames Pirate class! Basically a blend of fighter/rogue with a few flavorful special abilities related to piracy, like reduced movement penalties while climbing obstacles & fighting, mapmaking, dirty fighting, small animal companion, bard-like moral affecting ability.

You are the newest writer for TLG. We need you to create a totally new Character Class from scratch. What do you pitch to the rest of the staff? #ttrpg #gamemaster

"Oh look, a STAWBRREY!" Was working on a strawberry sticker, but I got frustrated as nothing looked good to me. Then I shouted "EFF IT!", tossed the digital pen across my desk, then drew the following using my mouse. It's terrible...but--I kinda love it...

West Virginia has had a rough winter and potholes are everywhere. I thought this illustration of a Cardinal that I am turning into a sticker sums up most of our state’s collective mood after emerging from Winter into Spring.

It's quiet in the office today... too quiet. The interns are unsupervised! You know that that means, right? It means we're giving away autographed copies of .@Marisa_comeaux's (Marisa Wolf) science fiction novel, "BEYOND ENEMIES" That's right, simply comment below and let us know you want one, and we'll randomly pick one person to get a FREE autographed copy of the book shipped to them, on us! ******* Sometimes the only way forward is to burn it all down. Talinn Reaze and Bee serve as “Breezy,” part of the United Colonial Force’s elite Artificial Intelligence Troops. Trained for full integration since before Talinn’s birth, they exceeded expectations and became one of the premier heavy tanks, leading assaults on several fronts of the long war against the Interstellar Defense Corps. When they’re thrown to a backwater base without cause, boredom becomes their main enemy—until the world falls out from under their treads and they begin to question everything they’ve ever known. As they orient to their new reality, they have a decision to make: Uphold the status quo, or risk burning civilization to the ground? Talinn and Bee always did have a fondness for fire. #BeyondEnemies #MarisaWolf #ChaoticInterns

@TimothyImholt @ShellbackBeau It is definitely one of those “hidden gems” where it is very good but gets a bot overshadowed buy the extensive stack of excellent Cary Grant movies out there, so most people don’t remember it.

@mottfolio @ShellbackBeau Sure, but how many people that hand out here on X have actually seen it as compared to the other ones in the polls?

Because I ran a poll yesterday on the best submarine movie ever and people got upset I left a movie out. The winner, up against the popularly requested film. Let's see who wins.

@ShellbackBeau @TimothyImholt YES, this is my favorite too. It’s a total comfort watch. Cary Grant captaining a pink submarine. It’s hilarious, heartfelt, and just so rewatchable.

Back in college, to help improve my illustration skills, I drew a webcomic based on my grumpy French Lop rabbit named Cookie. This is my favorite holiday one-shot I drew.

I stopped at a food truck I regularly order from. My husband likes refried beans added into his soft tacos. The lady cooking said “Ah, you have the husband who likes his frijoles!” Apparently they remember me, lol.

Why is it that disposable napkins get less functional the ‘fancier’ they get? Big pack of Great Value napkins work great, but a pack of fancy party napkins at twice the price can’t absorb anything.
