@GoblinMixtape Haha, we could have talked forever! We're an enthusiastic bunch. It's nice to hear you enjoyed the chat!

[Rebecca Strang @bexagons.bsky.social @ToPlayIsHuman]

@GoblinMixtape A group of librarians were chatting about zine month today and Outliers got some love on stream and in chat! https://t.co/xv9lQ0b57r

[Rebecca Strang @bexagons.bsky.social @ToPlayIsHuman]

We're funded! Still two days to back if you haven't already!

[Rebecca Strang @bexagons.bsky.social @ToPlayIsHuman]

A peek into my brain! 🦝🦝🦝

Just a few days left to back Tiny Library: Modern Fantasy (51 cards with custom TTRPG rules for pets, items, characters, etc. that you can add to nearly any game)!

'Tiny Library: Modern Fantasy', compiled by @Long_Tail_Games, is currently crowdfunding! I wrote an article on it in which I spotlighted each of the 51 fragments included AND even did a card pull and created my own game! Check it out, and the creators tagged below!

[Rebecca Strang @bexagons.bsky.social @ToPlayIsHuman]

It's me! On a podcast! Talking about gaming in libraries! And cats! And @Long_Tail_Games Tiny Library: Modern Fantasy project!

[Mork @ColdWinnipegger]

What's the nerdiest thing I've ever seen?
What special powers would our guest's cats have?
What exactly does a gaming librarian do?

@ToPlayIsHuman is on the pod this week!

Other cards in the deck outline magic systems, character creation prompts, creatures, magical items, & some are artistic inspiration for settings or stories. I'm proud to be part of this amazing project. Help us bring it to life by backing it on Gamefound! https://t.co/hEXudB5lWD

[Rebecca Strang @bexagons.bsky.social @ToPlayIsHuman]

I made a thing and it's crowdfunding right now!

https://t.co/L6AKoiPxxz

Tiny Library: Modern Fantasy is a deck of 51 TTRPG modules that you can insert into just about any role-playing game. 51 creators are involved in this project, including me!

[Rebecca Strang @bexagons.bsky.social @ToPlayIsHuman]

My card is an animal companion module. You meet a raccoon who can also be a pigeon and they have different abilities in each form. They are mostly helpful but sometimes mischievous.
