I’m a white South African who grew up gay and nerdy in a small town; today I find nerdy shit to obsess about all the time. I joined my first tabletop roleplaying game in my 20s and I’ve been hooked ever since. I write and edit for a living, but in my free time I blog about boardgames, RPGs, crafting, the creative or gaming-related projects my friends and I are involved in, cool shit that’s happening, various things that I think are great, and things that piss me off. My pet project is a series of posts filled with GMing advice for new players and GMs – people who, like me, came into the hobby late and did not always feel welcome. I also run and play as many RPGs as I possibly can. Social justice iop.
