As the Kickstarter campaign to reprint Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire THE COMPLETE SERIES Volume 2 enters its second week, I’ve noticed something start to happen. As word spreads as best as I can make it, there’s been an increasingly sweet response to folks discovering it. The words are always a little different but the … Continue reading “The Kickstarter’s Sweet Side Effect”
On Monday I launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund the second printing of Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire THE COMPLETE SERIES Volume 2. The funding goal is very high in comparison to the 2020 campaign to reprint Volume 1, thanks to the increased cost of… well, everything. It’s moving along at a good pace, and … Continue reading “Slow and Steady Goes the Kickstarter”
And here we go! The Kickstarter campaign to reprint Dominic Deegan: Oracle for Hire THE COMPLETE SERIES Volume 2 is now live! It’s a big goal to reprint a big book, but I know we can do this!

I play tabletop roleplaying games remotely with my friends. I’ve spoken before about this and I love that we have the option to play from the comfort of our homes, in our pajamas. I love that the programs built for this do some of the complicated math required so number-crunching is lessened and goofing around … Continue reading “There’s No Dice Jail”
I was introduced to Pathfinder many years ago, back when Dungeons & Dragons launched their fourth edition. It was not the tabletop roleplaying game people had come to know and love, but rather felt like a board game masquerading as a tabletop game.
