#d23 Day 1 and a General Update

Waiting to get in my journal, I am thinking about what to make. I will jot down a few notes today and continue to keep them together until my new notebook comes in. I’v been quiet the last two weeks not putting out my usual weekly posts. This is because the holidays are hectic and work stuff has kept me preoccupied.

The good news is that I have had the last week and a bit off and it has been a nice little rest for me. I needed the downtime to relax, watch kids sports, eat way too much food, start a new workout routine, and generally enjoy time with my family.

I’ll be back next week with a better update and a little more insight into my dungeon 23 progress. Also I released a very rough first thing (Forest Bastards) this past week for the Bastards. Jam that Micah Anderson was running, It is probably not even really even in the vein of Bastards enough to be a bastards game, and quite frankly it is not even really all that good of a thinking in the first place, but it is mine and I am proud regardless.

I am looking into Affinity to get some real layout done, I was very quickly aware of the limitations of using google docs for creating RPG content ready for the public eye. It is on sale right now for 40% off and that seems like a great opportunity to try it out and see what the world of publishing actually looks like. Free 30 day trial here I come, I’ll try using it to relayout Forest Bastards and see how it goes. I’ll be sure to report back here as well.
