Before the Kentucky Derby was a spectacle, a formerly enslaved teenager made history. In 1875, Oliver Lewis rode Aristides to victory, becoming the first Derby winner. This #HarlemUnbound, I explore his life & legacy and turn him into a game-ready NPC for Haunted West. History belongs at the table. https://www.patreon.com/posts/haunted-west-bio-146029567?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link

I was also elated yesterday that they had Harlem Unbound 2nd edition! Seeing the other books I’ve worked on in the wilds is is fun, while #HarlemUnbound fills me with pride in a way I can’t quite express. I thinking about all of the rejections and its journey to publication, then 2nd edition. #ttrpg

Dusting off one of my #HarlemUnbound con scenarios for a fresh rewrite! It’s been living rent-free in my head for weeks, and it’s time for a little #MayMythos horror. #GameDesign #TTRPG
