I made a small Mausoleum for the graveyard set. Its a simple build but it looks pretty nice ^^ #ttrpg #dnd #dndminiatures

Does anyone out there use #etsy to sell their #zines or digital downloads? I'm thinking of opening a store there and wanted to hear what people think of it. #tabletop #ttrpg #store #shop #book #author

When you're creating a #indierpg, how do you layout your character sheets? I created my first design by hand on paper, but I'm not sure how to make a digital version. #ttrpg #tabletop #tabletopgaming #gaming #games

When running your tabletop sessions, try to make sure the players have meaningful choices that influence the story and world around them. #ttrpg #tabletop #gaming #games #rpg #ttrpgtips

What are some things that you'd like to see in a setting guide? I'm working on a primer/full blown book of the world I run games in, but I want to make sure I include really only useful info. #indierpg #5e #ttrpg #tabletop #tabletopgaming #fantasy #author #gaming #games

How do you try to make #ttrpg sessions online feel more lively? We like to leave our cameras on for the session so it feels like we're in the same room together. #indierpg #5e #rpg #tabletop

I'm looking for some exciting new #indierpg games I can try out (mainly solo rpg's). Drop links in the replies to your wares so I can check them out! #ttrpg #tabletop #gaming #games #osr #rpg

Any artists have some #osr art packs for sale? Looking to spruce up a setting guide I'm working on and I want to make sure I'm supporting artists in the scene! #ttrpg #tabletop #gaming #games #indierpg #artists #art

When you're discovering a new #indierpg, do you like think a quick start pamphlet, a handful of pregenerated characters, and an intro adventures would be a cool free download? Something's brewing I want to show off soon 👀 #indierpg #ttrpg #tabletop #gaming #games #rpg #osr

What's that one mechanic you're surprised to see everywhere? Personally, I'm not a fan of auto crit/fail mechanics. Feels to "gamified" for my tastes, but it's in so many games now. ##ttrpg #tabletop #indierpg #gaming #games #rpg

Anyone else get too attached to the npc's you write? I found myself creating this weird little cult with all this lore and backstory before I remember they're the bad guys and are going to get destroyed the second they meet my players. 🤣 #ttrpg #tabletop #gaming #games #indierpg

What techniques do you use to keep yourself creative? I try to make sure I always carve out a block each day. For me having a creative routine is more important for my long term goals than what I actually write. #ttrpg #indierpg #writing #author #authors #writers #tabletop #tabletopgames

Do you prefer more sandbox style #ttrpg games or heroic, main quest ones? I've been having a blast running a sandbox, the world feels more alive to me. #tabletop #tabletopgaming #indierpg #5e #dungeonmaster #tabletoprpg

Quick #ttrpg tip! Try adding multiple factions to your dungeons. Having many characters all with their own wants, needs, and reasons for being there leads to emergent gameplay from their interactions. #ttrpgs #tabletop #indiettrpg #gaming #games #dungeonmaster #indierpg #rpg

What fonts do you like to use in your #ttrpg books? I've been using a couple I Google Fonts, but I'm curious what everyone else likes to use. #tabletop #tabletopgaming #games #gamer #author #dungeonmaster

What systems do you keep bouncing between? I'm currently deep into a #5e campaign as a player while being the GM for a #shadowdark campaign. #ttrpg #tabletop #gaming #games #tabletopgaming

I'm moving into the playtesting and balancing phase for the #ttrpg game I'm working on. What's the best advice you have/resources you can share so I can learn more? #tabletop #gaming #games #rpg #5e #gamedesign #author

What time of year are you most creative? Early and end of summer are my creative seasons. Can't wait for the cozy season to begin! #gaming #games #author #writing #creative #indierpg

RPG tip from the archive: Modify dungeons as you play should they overstay their welcome. Cut off hallways. Collapse chambers. Move things around. #dnd #ttrpg

What's a piece of advice you'd give to a new #dungeonmaster? Mine is that you can't account for everything your players do, let the game take it's own natural flow. #ttrpg #tabletop #indierpg #gaming #games #rpg
