I’ve had this nagging fear for the past several days that the time I’ve spent doing system design is a lot of time spent trying to shoehorn “good game loop mechanics” into a game that I think might be a much more straightforward narrative game.

Really excited for this!

Hey pals, one of my contracts wraps up in September, so I'm looking for new writing, narrative design, and creative direction contracts, short or longer term. Remote, most timezones except Australia. Preferably USA (I'm a night owl!). Flexible on days per week. Reach out! 💜 hannahnicklin.com

On a brand new Acela train and I gotta say, it’s pretty swanky.

I saw The Odyssey. It’s over-edited.

There used to be a hand dryer here.

Oh this looks pretty cool! www.gamenarrativereader.org Excited to go through the contents, some really great essays and blog posts are included.

What’s the typical etiquette for someone replying to your email 13 years later?

Platforming a known narcissist and troll contrarian on a substack podcast dedicated to “how and why we love video games” is like a good summary of the state of things.

Do I owe it to myself to try and see The Odyssey in 70mm?

I’m on the chattiest Amtrak train heading back to NYC from family vacation and I swear I accidentally boarded a singles cruise or smth.

This is the last weekend to vote for A Land Once Magic by my amazing colleague @vidityavoleti.bsky.social in the “Best Rules” category for the ENnies. Viditya is a champion of small, independent TTRPGs, and I admire his design sensibilities so much! vote.ennie-awards.com/vote/2026/

ENnies voting is still up and if you've haven't already considered A Land Once Magic for Best Rules I'd love for you to vote for it! vote.ennie-awards.com/vote/2026/ I have a feeling that to some "Best Rules" is an odd nomination for ALOM but it's the one that means the most to me!

It’s my partner’s birthday today, and even tho she’s not on bsky, I still want to celebrate her everywhere I can.
