3. The mentor/mentee relationship itself can establish an authority structure. Emphasize the peer nature of the relationship as much as possible. The mentees themselves also have valuable experience and viewpoints. This is, after all, their project, and they have final decision-making power.

1. Ask questions before telling folks what to do. 2. Assume they're smart. For example, instead of saying "you should...", ask: "have you considered x..." "what are you thinking about x..." "how do you envision x..."

It’s been a while, I’ve been taking a break from social media for a bit, but I’m back… this map is for demiclorissawrites on insta. It’s a town map for the inside of a fantasy novel and I’m loving the vibrant locations in this world, it was fun to draw.

I just published issue two of my broadsheet Say We Do. It has an excerpt from my game/zine Inscapes that I'm launching on Kickstarter tomorrow, a bit about mystical vs occult #tarot decks, an immersive journaling game design problem, and more.

Be With Me is a journaling game about your time on a reality dating show like The Bachelor or The Bachelorette. You use paint swatches to represent the prospective life partners you date on the show.

Found this in a book from a Little Free Library and now I'm thinking I should make a sequel game to Be With Me where you write on the paint swatches.

That turns The Great Gatsby into an instructional text. Reading a novel is an act of human connection. The reason to read a novel is to hear what the author thinks about how the world works and what's important in life, and see if and how your own experience agrees.

Does anybody know about ttrpgs that have to do with pregnancy and/or birth? I tried a google search and search on itch's physical games and got shockingly few results. Like, practically zero. Can't tell if it's just janky search engines, or truly such an unexplored topic in ttrpgs.

A conversation on our Discord has prompted me to say again: remember, y'all, what really sells books is not the author talking about their work, but *readers* talking about it. Word of mouth drives far more sales than advertising or any other engine. So if you loved a book, tell your friends!

"Kill your darlings" only applies if you're holding onto something that actually hurts your story. But jerks sometimes use "kill your darlings" as a weapon to try to break you. Don't wantonly kill what you love the most about your story. That's why you're writing it. Make it work.

Did you see the second game with The Sneeze? It's on the back of a tarot card inside.
Temperance is the other death card, the death that isn't death, the move from one vessel to another, reincarnation. And that's what the game is about.

I'm thinking a ton about The Tower lately. We fear it because we identify with the figures being cast under and their world it's destroying in them. But what if our real affinity is with the tower itself, and its frustrations and the better world it wants for itself and for us.
