sic infit

Salve, fidelium! artsword, here. This is my blog where I can get my head around all things gaming, art, and life. Like many, I discovered TTRPGs during the pandemic, and have been voraciously consuming since then. Thought it was about time to start creating, or at the very least, reflecting on this hobby that has me in its thrall.

I also have long harbored the desire to write and create... something. In a former life I was a classically trained musician, and still get much joy from playing and performing. But over the past 15 years, the urge to create with the written word has been very strong, but I have been met with Resistance at every turn.

When it's not normal life stuff, it's that internal voice of fear, self-doubt, and self-disqualification...

Well, no more! I'm here to practice the art of writing using the vast landscape of TTRPGs, game design, and Sci-Fi/Fantasy art of all kinds. Whether or not that results in anything of note is yet to be seen, but for now, I'm here for the 'work' of art. Because this is important to me, and so I should do it.

I've learned that I don't need to set a hard goal for myself, other than 'write as much as I can with the time I've got... hopefully a few times a week.' So I'll go with that.

If you happen upon my little corner of the interwebs, welcome, and fruatis!
