Here are some of my coding projects:
You can find more projects of mine on BOLT80, my coding portfolio.
To get in touch, toots or emails are best (depending on the length of message). Here is a more exhaustive list:
I post articles infrequently on The Stochastic Game, my personal blog. Here are the most recent entries:
I’m back to reading the classic RuneQuest 2nd edition boxed set! See the first and second articles in the series if you missed them. Today we are reading the “Basic Role-Playing” booklet, written by Greg Stafford and Lynn Willis, with a couple illustrations by William Church. This “introductory guide” to fantasy role-playing (FRP) and the […]
If there’s a sure way to get my attention, it’s including some good looking maps in a game. But a sure way to get an instant buy is to include a big-ass cloth map in a game. That’s what Dragonbane did with their original crowdfunding campaign, and so of course I backed it at the […]
Welcome to Open Box, the part of the blog where we look backwards to look forw… wait, no that’s not correct. It’s the part where we open the 2nd edition RuneQuest boxed set, like I said we would in the preamble! Let’s be careful with those corners, lift the lid, and take in the wonderful […]
I started playing RuneQuest with the latest edition, “RuneQuest: Roleplaying in Glorantha”, colloquially known as “RQG”. I had fallen in love with the setting via its gigantic, critically acclaimed, system-agnostic “Guide to Glorantha”, so using the official game to bring it to the table felt like the next logical move.

Chaos in Glorantha started as the pretty clear-cut mark for the “bad guys”, a tool for gamemasters to scare their players, and for those players to kill some monsters without remorse. But I’m a Call of Cthulhu and Delta Green player at heart, with some early formative years spent on Vampire and Cyberpunk, so I […]

Chaosium may have a problem: Glorantha became the very thing that its critics warned us about. It’s mostly just a bunch of lore, now. How did that happen? And what does that mean for my RuneQuest games?

Here's my microblogging feed, published on my blog, and syndicated to Mastodon and Bluesky:
VanCAF haul! Great little comicbook convention once again. Thank you to all the artists who came.
VanCAF and Japadog, winning combo
In addition to being a rhubarb addict and chocolate zealot, I’m also a honey snob. It’s hard to find anything else than shitty liquid or creamed honey that just tastes like sugar. If I can’t taste what flower the honey was made from, I’m sorry but it’s crap.
While throwing away old CDs, I found a couple of very old cassettes from when I was a kid and didn’t have a CD burner to copy stuff! Here’s my copy of the soundtrack to the cult 1994 movie “The Crow”! Can’t do this shit with MP3 files.
