  • What's your favourite paper?

    Simple tastes, here: uncoated 80 lb. interiors, and a simple 100 lb matte laminated cover.

  • What's your favourite binding?

    I'm a dirty dog, I like staplebound zines. Hardback smithsewn is nice too, but it's gotta be worth it. If I'm going to get fancy schmancy, a stitchbound zine is cool too.

  • How did you get started in games?

    Not counting the high school no rulebook space pirate nonsense (which was a lot of fun), my first real ttrpg was in 2016/17, running/playing Joshua A. C. Newman's Shock: Human Contact. I'm a sf lit nerd, and I wanted more Le Guin and this game promised to scratch that itch.

What's your favourite game on our store?

I'm working with Eryk on Zone/Stalker-inspired Milk Bar, and well, this game rules for those vibes.
