I’m involved in two upcoming Vaesen books from @FreeLeaguePub: A mystery book set in Stockholm, and a setting book about Carpathia. #Vaesen #NordiskaVäsen

I am involved in yet another TTRPG project. We are bringing Magnamund, the world of Lone Wolf, to Dragonbane. I’m onboard as graphic designer and layout guy. Link in comments.

I may be an old fart – but I, for one, like to welcome newcomers to the hobby.

For ‘The Ghost Knight’ adventure for The Troubleshooters RPG (from @Helmgast), I got to design a flag for a fictive country, a coat of arms for a fictive town, and a tourist brochure for a fictive castle. #TheTroubleshootersRPG #TTRPG

For ‘The Great Champagne Galop’ adventure for The Troubleshooters RPG (from @Helmgast), I got to design a fake 1930s Champagne label. This is why working with TTRPGs is way more fun than whatever I was doing at the ad agencies I used to work for. #TheTroubleshootersRPG #TTRPG

Yesterday I finished typesetting a 256-page book about the Swedish role-playing game hobby/industry/wonder. It’s in English and aimed at an international audience. Written by my old friend, and industry veteran, @MagnusSeter, and published by @FandrakeBooks. Release: October 19.

Saturday’s #GenCon loot. I had to check out Outgunned by Two Mice from Italy. It won silver ENnies for Best Game and Product of the Year. And when I went by The Arcane Library booth to congratulate Kelsey on Shadowdark RPG winning FOUR gold ENnies, she kindly gifted me a copy.

I’m having such a great time at #GenCon. Big heaps of thanks to all the super friendly gaming nerds I have had the pleasure to hang out with these past couple of days. You are amazing!

Friday’s #GenCon loot. I managed to unknowingly pick two ENnie winners. (But the real treasure was the amazing and friendly people I met along the way.)

So great to see Hellguard: Curse of Caina from @graniteglyph in the ‘flesh’. I did the graphic design, layout, and prepress – and it turned out really nice.

I’m the only representative from Stockholm Kartell this year, so if you see a tall Swede in a Stockholm Kartell battle vest, that’ll be me.

A delay due to bad weather made me miss the first day of #GenCon. I have now been traveling for twenty-one hours, and I’m not there yet. But tomorrow I will be.

Happy to see that backers are receiving their copies of ‘Moria – Through the Doors of Durin’ (and/or ‘Moria – Shadow of Khazad-dûm’). Layout and prepress by me. #theonering
Got my gorgeous deluxe edition of Moria, the new #theonering book from @FreeLeaguePub - to call this a "supplement" feels almost wrong, it's so stunning and jam-packed, I can't believe how beautiful it is😭 Into the mines! #ttrpg #TOR #TOR2E #Tolkien #LOTR #middleearth
