Bloody Slippers features gorgeous cover art by @eshpur.bsky.social, trade dress by @alderdoodle.bsky.social, item art by @runesael.bsky.social and layout by me. The full set of PDFs contains everything you need to run the game, including character handouts, logistical guides & player casting advice.

The cover image of Bloody Slippers, drawn by @eshpur.bsky.social. A highly stylized piece of artwork that looks like stained-glass with golden outlines, depicting a road leading through woods to a faraway fantasy castle. Sitting on the road close to the viewer are a pair of white dancing slippers resting on a pool of blood, between an alyssum plant and a hellebore plant. Bordering the central artwork is a decorative frieze containing twelve different flowers and plants in the same stained-glass style.

I have been so sad that my favorite Vietnamese coffee chain doesn't have any locations in San Diego so today my husband drove to Los Angeles and bought my favorite drink and brought it back, a three-hour drive each way through rush hour (full disclosure: he was going to LA anyway for a work trip)

An emergency caffeine infusion from my favorite Vietnamese coffee shop, because I’ll need to be as alert as possible (I’m streaming my very first playthrough of Silksong in about an hour in my Discord server! There’s still time to come join and hang out.)
