I'll be at Gen Con! I'm mostly there to assist two of my clients, but I do have a small bit of availability if anyone wants to talk shop. Steve has decided my company should be "Mary Poppins of Sales & Marketing" but I'm lacking flying umbrella skills 🤣 DM if you wanna see if I can help!

Charlie is a thoughtful and articulate board game reviewer who never fails to give me ideas that improve my designs. If you love board games, I think you’ll enjoy and appreciate Charlie’s reviews. Sometimes ebullient, sometimes brutal, always fair.

Jenna Felli's latest is a joyful battle of cooperation against an evil coterie of witches. They just happen to be your mothers. It's weird, it's normal, it's a lot of things. My review: playerelimination.com/2026/07/21/r...

✂️🎲 Big shout out to all the content creators and publishers in the hobby gaming space that attribute the designers and artists who worked on the games we love to play. I, for one, appreciate it.

What I find fascinating/bemusing about this is that it doesn’t reflect our sales. For the Marvel set, burned by Spider-Man and TMNT, we drastically reduced our order and reduced our prereleases, and that proved to be the right decision. It seems to be all being bought by collectors not players.

Caelyn has such a wonderful voice and eye for detail when discussing her passions. She made reading about wargames and miniatures a joy that was only seconded by editing her work and sharing co-host duties on podcasts. Any editor should be champing at the bit to work with Caelyn! Snatch her up!

I'm sad to say that I'm no longer working with the team at Rascal. It's been a great couple of years, but circumstances have dictated that it's time for me to move on. That does mean that I'm now (quite desperately) looking for freelance work, so if you need words for/about games, my DMs are open.
