I'm happy to share my first #TTRPG! It's free/pay what you want (link below).

In Far From the Fairgrounds, you're a circus kid who is lost in the woods.

Admittedly inspired by #OvertheGardenWall and @gshowitt's RPGs, this was a ton of fun to create.

@DrGabrielGreen Obviously women's bodies are much more highly litigated, but reproductive rights are important for everyone.

@DrGabrielGreen 💯💯💯
When I finally got the referral to a urologist for my vasectomy (after changing jobs and then my new switching insurance and having to start over), I needed my wife to sign a "spousal consent form" for them to perform the procedure. She signed ofc, but still.

@CornellWriter I love this! That said, I often use the aspiring label because it's what I'd love to be able to do full time, but at this point (either because of where my work's at or what the opportunities are or some combination of the two) that's not a realistic possibility.

An absolutely wild ride that is surprisingly dark for a lit mag tale.

Really thankful for In Another Time Magazine for giving my story a home! Here's a quick blurb on why they loved it!

[In Another Time Magazine @InAnotherTimeM]

Why we loved this story: The Dentist of Last Resorts.
We've all been there. To the dentist. Sometimes it's gone just fine. Sometimes it hasn't. This story will be comforting, as you'll probably never have an experience quite like what the characters go through. It will also be

@lapis_lazuli11 Not quite a book, but Strindberg's Miss Julie is so masterful you can read it as a critique of his views. But it's not what it's intended to be and I vehemently disagree with his thesis.

[Andrew Maust (He/Him) @TheMaust]

@Komaniecki_R I thoroughly enjoyed your rankings, and while some of my favorites were not ranked as high as I would like, I think I am about as qualified to dispute them as those film critics who thought Let It Go sounded like a 60's era musical.

Thank you so much for sharing your rankings!

[Andrew Maust (He/Him) @TheMaust]

@mdbell79 Glad to hear that it's all sorted, and I'm sorry that this difficult time has been made even more difficult.

The difference in support I found when I moved from academia to the nonprofit world was staggering. I loved academia but it's ruthless.

@momatoes If microRPGs count, @gshowitt has Retrograde ( https://t.co/EIgHhuPIGj ) and Fetch ( https://t.co/AsmCwwDnK2 ) have some neat memory elements.
