Song of the Week

Memphis Minnie & Kansas Joe McCoy, “When the Levee Breaks”

Happy Monday! It’s cold both inside and outside my apartment today. I hope you are safe and warm, wherever you may be.

There will be a new chapter of The Book of the New Moon Door this week on Thursday or Friday, so stop by again! I’ll also be on Twitch this evening and on Saturday.

Have an excellent week.

Bill Withers, “Ain’t No Sunshine”

Happy Monday. 2020 is almost over.

There will probably not be a new chapter of The Book of the New Moon Door this week, but don’t worry! If you’re already caught up, there are more things to read under the Stories and Modules tabs above.

Have an excellent week.

Ben Howard, “In Dreams”

Happy Monday!

The enforced closings of restaurants and public places have arrived where I am, and it looks like we’ll all be isolated for the foreseeable future. Please take care of yourselves and each other and wash your hands.

I have plenty here on this blog if you’re in need of something to pass the time. My Call of Cthulhu module, The Well Below the Valley, is now complete! You can start reading here or go to the table of contents under the “Read my writing” tab above. Beyond the Frost-Cold Sea is a free story that is about halfway done; you can start here or see the table of contents under the same “Read my writing” tab. I’ll be back Wednesday with Chapter XIV. And if you need a new twenty-second musical verse to time washing your hands, I have a new Song of the Week every Monday.

Good luck, stay safe, and have an excellent week.

The Silent Comedy, “Bartholomew”

Happy Monday! Please enjoy this song. You might recognize it from the trailer for Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition.

I’ll be back on Wednesday with the rest of Chapter Three of The Well Below the Valley. We’re coming to the end of the module! When it’s done, I may start posting another project, or I might just post chapters of Beyond the Frost-Cold Sea until it’s also done. I’ll have more updates on that later.

Have an excellent week.

Song of the Week

KALEO, “Vor í Vaglaskógi”

Happy Monday!

Midwinter Gaming Convention went really well! I didn’t get as many players as I would have liked, but I did learn a lot about game-mastering. I’m going to be making some edits to Chapters One & Two of The Well Below the Valley before I put them back up on Wednesday, so I’ll keep you posted on that.

Now that the convention is over, I’ll be back on my usual schedule of posting chapters of The Well Below the Valley and Beyond the Frost-Cold Sea on alternating Wednesdays. Barring any unexpected catastrophes, this should continue until one or both of them are complete.

Please enjoy this song, and have an excellent week!

Hozier, “In the Woods Somewhere”

Happy first Monday of 2020! Please enjoy this song.

Midwinter Gaming Convention is in FOUR DAYS. If you’ll be in Milwaukee, I’m hosting The Well Below the Valley on Thursday and Saturday evening, 5:30-9:30. Tickets for the games are free, but you’ll need a con badge. If you’ve never played Call of Cthulhu before, no worries! I’ll have premade characters and a quick & easy intro to the rules ready. All you need to do is show up and be ready to solve a mystery.

Here is the event page for Part One (Thursday).

Here is the event page for Part Two (Saturday).

Here is where you can get convention badges.

I’m hoping to have the next chapter of Beyond the Frost-Cold Sea up on Wednesday, but I may be too swamped with game prep. All the hidden material for The Well Below the Valley will be up next week, and we’ll return to our regular schedule of alternating posts until all chapters are available.

I hope everyone has an excellent week.

Song of the Week

Hozier, “Movement”

Happy Monday!

I’ll be busy this week preparing for Midwinter Gaming Convention and getting some more chapters of Beyond the Frost-Cold Sea ready for you. The next chapter will be up Wednesday. The Well Below the Valley is on hold until after the convention. If you’re interested in playing Call of Cthulhu with me, there’s more information and links here. I’m so excited and nervous to run this module again!

Have an excellent week!
