Hey, long time no LJ post! Anywho...

For those of you who don't follow Twitter, I've started brainstorming ideas for a new edition of Dead Inside (my first RPG) with a group of folks I've dubbed "the Utter Bastards" because they finally convinced me, kicking and screaming, that this would be a good idea.

Because it's not like I'm working on... 3 or 4 other freelance RPG products right now.

GENIUS: I HAZ IT.

For those of you who've read it or played DI, feel free to comment on this post about what it mean to you, what you liked about it, what you hated about it, anything and everything.

It'll go into the hopper o' ideas.

Thanks!

A challenging and thoughtful document. As @gmskarka called it over on Twitter: "Coherent, constitutionally-sound, and soberly adult. So it doesn't fit the "entitled hippy" narrative & has been ignored."

Give it a read.

Summary of Events of Whirlwind Boston Tour:

1) Peacefield = Amazing.

2) I covet the Stone Library.

3) My pimptastic robe is actually the white/black zebra print, as it was available in a larger size.

4) Pleased to meet you, [info]mgrasso!

5) MoS = ZOMG.

6) Fricking CT traffic, both ways. (Got home at 4 am today.)

7) I don't have hipster cred, I have hipster debt.

8) "Hipster Debt" is my White Stripes cover band.


That is all.

So, I'm thinking of spending this Saturday hanging out at the Adams National Historical Park. Seems like there's plenty to do and see there.

My big question, however, is what is the best way to get from Cambridge/Hotel Marlowe to the Park?

For Sunday, I'm pondering both the Old North Church and the Museum of Science. However, those look closer to the hotel and more easily accessible.

Suggestions?

For those of you you missed it last night, it looks like I'll be in Boston Saturday, 10/1, and Sunday, 10/2. I'll be staying at the Hotel Marlowe, next door to the Cambridgeside Galleria. I will be at loose ends most of the day both days, and Saturday evening looks fairly open thus far.

Boston area peeps -- I've never been to Beantown. Any interesting things to see or do, or cool places to eat or drink at, near that hotel? ("Near" = values of walkable or public tranistable.) John Adams stuff or Revolutionary War stuff a plus.

Also, I'd love to meet some of you in person at last, if you're around.

Feel free to leave a comment tellin' me what to do!

Thanks!

In the interests of wordcount, page length, and not overwhelming GMs with too much information, here's some material that got cut from the free Evil Acts scenario for The Dresden Files RPG. This of this as sort of a "DVD extra"!

look behind the cut )

What do you think? Suitably creepy?

EDITED TO ADD (9/7): If anyone has any further questions or comments on the casefile, or further interpretations/extrapolations, feel free to comment!

So, as an update to my post on Chadtoberfest 40, I do know what I'll be doing for my birthday. . .

Working.

This month, I'm behind on bills, so I've been scrambling for more freelance work (my existing gaming-freelance gig and online game sales really won't be paying out much this month).

Managed to pick up another gaming-freelance gig -- which will be cool and fun, but I don't know when it'll pay out. And I have to hurry up and assemble information for the developers, ASAP.

Managed to pick up two pro-freelance gigs (that's at the day-job, standards editing rate) -- however, the first is a quick turnaround (4 days) and I receive the document on my birthday. The second job follows immediately on the heels of the first, and I've been told it's complex. Now, that'll all be good money... that I won't probably see until early- to mid-September, if I'm lucky.

Oh, and the day-job just got crazy-busy this week.

sigh. It could be a lot worse, and I hate feeling "gah" because I did manage to get work.

On the positive news front, this happened. :)

Thus, gah and yay war within me, because while really good things have happened for me so far, I'm looking down the the rest of the month working at speed on 4 different projects (2 of which are time sensitive), trying to spin the plates of the overdue bills for the next 30 days, without anything crashing and burninating all over me.

So it goes.

Due to suffering existential angst, I am not sure what to do for the upcoming (in a little over a fortnight) Chadtoberfest 40.

Hurm.
