Playtest of Haunting of Larvik Island DCC officially started!
Last night we officially kicked off the playtesting of Haunting of Larvik Island DCC! Playtesters include Cat Harkins-DiNardo (Think Skull Adventure’s fine graphic designer who’s getting behind the dice!) Devin DiNardo (Thick Skull Adventure’s web designer), Sarah Bunker, John Bunker (pictured on left with me) and Karen Siegel. All of these fine folks are also on my hockey team and this is the first time they’ve helped me with playtesting. (They played Attack of the Frawgs, but only after it was published.) Each player...

Hello Thick Skullers, So, as I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, I read that our beloved Attack of the Frawgs was going to be played at ConNooga 2013. I’ve since been in touch with the judge/DM that ran the adventure, Mr. Kim Swanson. He has been kind enough to provide me a couple of highlights from their session: had seven players! and six of them had never played dungeon crawl classics before!! the sailor swam. the healer saved who he could. the grave digger dug plots for those he couldn’t. the squire bravely led the charge. the...

Happy 2013 Again! So, first of all, I wanted to wish you guys again a Happy New Year. As I’ve mentioned in the previous post, I’m feeling much better from an “emotional health” perspective. It has been nice to be able to clear my mind of some of the personal issues that had clogged my brain and be able to re-focus again on my writing. Very pleasing indeed. Cat and I got a chance to hang out at a post-Christmas Christmas party which is where that lovely photo on the right was taken. See how happy we both look. Her newly...
read moreWelcome 2013
Hello there, So, I wanted to give you guys an update as to where things were in the world of Thick Skull Adventures. 2012 was a good year in terms of gaming in that we were able to release Attack of the Frawgs and it has sold better than I’d ever expected. As of this writing (Jan 1, 2013) It has reached “Copper” status on both RPGNow.com and DriveThruRPG.com. As I know both of these sites track their sales independently I’ve been extremely pleased with their popularity. Similarly, the print copy of Frawgs has also sold...

Over the Labor Day weekend here in the US, I went to my first gaming convention: the conveniently located Pacificon Game Expo which is held at the Santa Clara Marriott just a few minutes drive from my house. It was a lot of good fun with plenty of vendors selling RPGs, board games, miniatures, accessories, trinkets and art and many tables of games of all sorts going on. The experience of being at the con was interesting on several levels: for starters, the people watching was fabulous, the costumes, the energy all very fun to take...
