When I'm running games for kids, my priority is everybody at the table having fun. So I will sometimes fudge a roll to keep a player alive so they don't feel excluded. Or subtract some monster hit points because combat is starting to get boring.

"the "six C's" that kids need to succeed — collaboration, communication, content, critical thinking, creative innovation and confidence."--all stuff offered by TTRPGs!

Sunday, October 27, we are having a spooky game day/fund & awareness raiser at a T-accessible location in Boston. If you'd like an invite (it's free to attend! But I will hit you up for a donation!), DM me your email!
The donations I got today were amazing, and so was the moral support. If you know someone trying something new, telling them you think their idea is great is a good and important way to contribute.

Tech Gives Back's impact can be felt all across Boston at youth-oriented nonprofits like @eggboston and @Elevate_Youth1! #TechGivesBack2019 #BostonTech #BostonNonprofit
Also: we're doing a fund/awareness raiser game day in Jamaica Plain on October 27, so if you wanna come play horror-themed games, hit me up! And if you know any rich people, bring 'em!
It's very challenging trying to start an organization while also holding down 3 other jobs. Hence my erratic tweeting. But I'll be running D&D for kids in Roxbury on Tuesday!

This is one of the reasons I founded the program. (Though I don't believe standardized test scores touted in the article are valid measures of learning). kqed.org/mindshift/51790/how…

What happens when a writer gets too successful to edit: they think you need 2500 words to say "I'm not sorry."
2 great games of Mysterium last night with friends. Games are good. Friends are good. This is basically the heart of our mission.

Fantastic 13th Age game at @LuckyGoblinLLC tonight. I may have gotten a wee bit too enthusiastic about role playing the curse that made me attack my companions!
