Hi Reader, Welcome! It's good to see you again. Please, sit down. All the irises are in bloom, so I've put a few in a cut-glass vase. Spring is in its full glory. It's on a beautiful day like today that I had to cancel the original Defy the Gods Kickstarter. It just wasn't going to hit its goal. Not the way I'd set it up. Valiant backers (like you) kept pledging, even as it became clear it wasn't going to clear the tree-line. I admit it, I got cocky. My raccoon empire made me proud. I imagined printing a lot more copies of Defy the Gods than I really needed to. So I'm relaunching soonâprobably in about three weeks, but as soon as I practically canâwith a more modest funding goal. I know we'll hit it. Especially if you and the other backers come back. Can you tell how much I want this game of queer sword & sorcery adventure and romance to become a reality? How much I want to put it in your hands? Canceling is tough, but it's all about the experience you can have with the game. I want you to get to play it. So. We're going to finish it. The new Kickstarter page is at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hecticelectron/defy-the-gods-rpg. Please sign up now so you don't miss out! Cheers, P.S. Last Monday, I sold my last copy of the Raccoon Sky Pirates box set! All physical raccoons are awayâthe end of an era. But you can still get the complete PDF! P.P.S. The new home for the Defy the Gods Kickstarter is hereâgo check it out! |

Hi Reader, Welcome! Please, come in, make yourself at home. On the table, next to some humble, xeroxed character sheets, is a tiny ceramic pot holding a lush orchid. I've been thinking about the densely packed experience lately. Like movies. Even though they're today's prestige storytelling format, even a great movie is just two hours (okay, two and a half) of light and sound. But in that time, it takes you on a rollercoaster. When it drops you off at the end, you feel richerânot twenty...
Hi Reader, Welcome! Please, come in. Make yourself comfortable. On the table, we have peonies and sheet cake. I'm celebrating (re)launching the Defy the Gods Kickstarter! Sorry I already ate half the cake. I lost control at 2 a.m. after I uploaded the last assets to the Kickstarter campaign. (If you're sick of hearing about Defy the Godsâor you're just mad about the cakeâclick here. I haven't tried it before, but my email service should take you off the list.) To make it up to you about the...
Hi Reader, Welcome! Please, come in. I've put some pink daylilies in a vase for Pride month. Dayliliesâpretty, but impossible to kill. We're all saying "Happy Pride!" with extra daylily-determination this year. It's a happy Pride, but with grit. Before it was a party, Pride was a protest. sorcerer discovering the occult properties of the rainbow And 5,000 years before that, in a land you build at the table, it was a battlecry against the gods! If you can't tell, I'm pumped to be re-launching...
