Watched Brand New Day with my parents today. Here are some spoiler-free quotes from them: "Why does Spider-Man have electronics?" "Is Kobe McGuire in this one?" "Shia LaBeouf was my favorite Spider-Man." (loud whisper during an emotional scene) "ASK HIM IF HE WANTS ANY SODA." *cup rattling*

James and Wes are two of the brightest minds in the TRPG industry. They are also two of the nicest and most hardworking people I know. If you're going to be at Gen Con, come and learn from them! I get to every day, and it's a real treat. :-) #dnd #WOTCstaff

One thing I’m doing at Gen Con: talking with Wes. Which I do all the time. But this time you get to listen in! And even ask questions! www.dungeonsanddragons.com/gen-con/

In this Designer Insights article, we update you on the fates of player options from two previous UAs. Going forward, we hope to give players a peek behind the curtain about how playtest content performed among survey respondents.—and which designs you might see again in the future! #WOTCstaff #dnd

I made it back to the states in one piece! What a wonderful trip. Shout-out to the Takenaka Carpentry Tools Museum in Kobe; it was one of the coolest museums I've ever visited. Here is me using a Japanese hand plane in the workshop there. Bonus picture of Osaka Castle, which was breathtaking.

Last year when I started my blues course, I also began working with an LA-based luthier to build a replacement for my electric guitar, whose weight was causing problems for my back. Not long ago, this wonderful Show Pony arrived at my musical lair, courtesy of Tone Ranger Guitars. She's pretty!

Like many other Iranian Americans, I spent much of yesterday glued to my phone. In the evening, however, I spontaneously volunteered to man a "bluegrass petting zoo" for a few hours at an opry in Kenmore, WA. It was delightful to see people of all ages interact with instruments for the first time.

Hold that Dimension Door! We have one more new Game Designer on the team. Taylor is the latest member of our adventuring party. 🧙 It has been wonderful to expand our already incredible team of designers with a few new faces. I can't wait for you to see the circle magic we're cooking up. #WOTCstaff

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

We recently added a few new faces to our adventuring party, and Erin is one of them! I first worked with Erin on Journeys Through the Radiant Citadel. I was amazed by her keen sense of narrative and worldbuilding then, and she's done a ton of great work since. We're lucky to have her! #WOTCstaff

Finally got around to updating ye olde profile page with some fun news: I’ve joined Wizards of the Coast as a Game Designer for Dungeons & Dragons. Much love to everyone who has been part of my journey through TTRPG writing and design land so far – excited to see what this new chapter brings!
