I've been writing this blog for five years now, and I am proud to say I have finally hit my 500th post!
I haven't had the time I would like for it lately, but for all the right reasons:
Welcome to the Deathtrap has inspired me to write a number roleplaying games from full OSR clones, to OSR-compatible games with their own Dark Fantasy setting and mechanics, to my own unique 2d6 Weird West system, to a one-page horror game.
I also have published a number of short OSR modules, and I am working towards a full-sized campaign setting.
W2tDT has attracted some friends who share my passion for D&D, it's history, and it's potential, allowing me to participate in many campaigns both short and long.
I have created 2 ttrpg short podcasts for friends and ongoing solo actual play podcast with over 500 regular listeners. Not to mention a complete 41-episode science fantasy audio drama inspired in part by the Gonzo gaming aesthetic I have come to love since starting the blog.
I have all of you to thank for carrying me through the lockdown, through the transitions involved with becoming a work-at-home dad, and through a life-altering central nervous system injury and learning to live with a disability.
I want to thank you all and hope that this blog will still be seeing the off update in another five years.
Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteI just stumbled across your blog this weekend and am happy to hear I have barely scratched the surface of all your posts. I'll also give your podcast a go. Thanks for sharing your imagination!
