- Maggie Studio: You know what? I do like that. And so many fun ideas, too. Because that game designer brain is always chugging along, right? And it's like, ⁓ yank, yank, yank. Those are fun. But between that and then also just sometimes, like we were playing ⁓ a game the other, it's been a few weeks now. ⁓ One of the players just mentioned, because we kind of keep up this little bit of conversation about, ⁓ no, this is happening, or yay, I did the thing, or what's this rule mean? But it came about that one of the players, their character wasn't going to make it. ⁓ They were going to get lost on their way to this place. But another player was like, well, I'm totally going to make it. But I keep showing up at this location where you're getting lost. So they decided that, in truth, all the things, well, maybe we're cousins. And so one of them successfully made the journey and then was headed back to find their cousin. And so it was just so cool to have these stories suddenly start intertwining, even though we're all playing our own game. ⁓ So there's just some really fun experiences that can come about. Plus, it's a time blocked in my schedule, so I'm gonna get to play and it's gonna happen. ⁓ That's been very helpful in terms of making sure I get some time. Yes. So try those out ⁓ if you're looking for some way to get into them. 100 % agree. We have our own solo RPG book club that we've started doing once a month. ⁓ It's been the most fun thing ever. Being able to do a solo activity as a group is so surprisingly wholesome and fun. Like, it's been great. And having a community around this hobby that I love so much is so important to me. And yeah, highly recommend. We do have a solo RPG book club that you can join virtually if you are interested. I will have that information in the description box below. But yes, it is such a fun time. My last question for you. Is there anything new in the works that you would like to shout out? ⁓ goodness. ⁓ I mentioned earlier a possible trilogy. I'm working on a hack of Two Hand Path from Mikey Ham ⁓ that is, I think it's going to be about the people the librarians turn to ⁓ when somebody refuses to bring something back. They checked it out. ⁓ or perhaps it got stolen. Something was removed from the library and it's not coming back of its own accord. This is who you talk to. And so you get to play, it's a solo game. You get to play as one of the Inkbound ⁓ who are the folks that go out and retrieve the things. that's, that's keep an eye out. Maybe, maybe next year that one will be available, hopefully. So, so exciting. I. Literally can't wait. I will be playing it as soon as I can because I yeah, I'm so excited Awesome. Well, thank you so much for taking the time to talk with me today. This has been such a delight ⁓ I really do enjoy your games. I'm excited to see what else comes out from this world ⁓ And yeah, I just had a great time Wonderful. Yeah, I had a good time too.
