Does anyone know of any good RPGs that dip into
themes and aesthetics? I want to find a game to DM for my group.

@SKleefeld Oh I am sure I could run a 5E slasher game or whatever, but I am more interested in seeing what gameplay systems exist, especially if they are designed around the concept.

Three of my articles for recently dropped. The first one is about figuring out good character design and I walk through the process using my character: https://characterhub.com/blog/character-resources/bad-character-design

Bad is just a character design that needs a little work.

The next article for was about drawing mouths and lips using anime-style cues: https://characterhub.com/blog/character-resources/anime-mouths

I ended up drawing a lot of fun mouths and lips, most of them floating and disembodied. Also, I got to highlight some and artists I learned from.

Just how the hell do I draw hands anyway? This article I wrote for
shows my tools for drawing cartoon hands in different styles: https://characterhub.com/blog/character-resources/cartoon-hand-drawing

Plus, I got to draw a creepy disproportionate hand on a cartoon character for the header, which is always fun.

Saw an anthology looking for Santa-based horror but didn't allow violence against kids. How the hell am I gonna tell a story about a Mall Santa that goes on a rampage to kill the kid who shit on his lap during a photo, then?

There is tremendous untapped potential in an ensemble comedy with actors playing settlers in a chaos playthrough of The Oregon Trail.

I have access to three invite codes for that will allow you to skip the registration queue. I have been writing articles for them for months and they provide a fun system to track and develop on top of an active community full of activities and .

Hit me up for a code.

@Hika See if you can DM me. I don't see an option to DM you the code.

Nothing drives me up the wall like students citing and IMDB entry as a substitution for citing a film as a primary source.

Most of the time, it shows they haven't even watch the movie they are writing about and that is why their papers have nothing to say.

So you'll give us as Wolverine (which I admit I am a mark for) but you're still not brave enough to integrate and into the 616 continuity?

I had a column on a horror site where I was doing a retrospective on the original run of called "Just Swamp Things" and really miss writing that.

It was a spinoff of my horror comic reviews, "Graphic Content." I want to get back to writing similar stuff.

Are there any , , , or sites looking for an experienced writer?

I have an extensive background in reviews, editorials, interviews, and more and can easily get up to speed on the particulars of any publication's style.

It has become too expensive to look for work on . The amount of connects required for even basic jobs is insane. Considering you only get about 10 a month and most jobs are now going for 12 to 16 connects on average, my income has catered on the site.

@dzedus 163 jobs with $10k in earnings, top rated, with a 100% JSS and a 5.0 rating since 2022.

The invitations I tend to receive are for writing ebooks for less than $10, or AI projects that pay less than that. I would happily take a $50 logo job as it is easy work for me, but I cannot afford to purchase the 20 connects it takes to apply for them.

@dzedus I haven't found any agencies on Upwork that seem appealing as they tend to make their money by passing on pittance work to freelancers, which they take a cut from as they are hooking those contractors up with the work.

The problem lies in these agencies farming out sub-$10 jobs that are rendered even less because the agency takes a share, on top of Upwork's fees.
