Looking to follow other #women #creators #authors #artists #designers #theorists in the #RPG #ttRPG space, especially other #WoC. Cis and trans, queer, lesbian, hetero, and ace welcome.

Me: Middle Age, former founding staff of d8 Magazine, creator of #TapestryRPG System, favorite non-#DnD games that aren't mine: #TheWindow #MIMgames #ICRPG #Whitehack Decidedly #NewSchoolRenaissance, not #OSR

Setting aside the #OGL brouhaha for a moment, I'd like to point out that #Asian-inspired settings and cultural themes have always been super popular in #RPG #ttRPG circles, but there are very few, if any, materials in this community actually produced by #Asian people who are cultural experts in our various heritages. To date, virtually everything has been produced by cishet white men. #Hasbro, with all its money, has done absolutely nothing to improve this.

The same holds true for #African and #Black American cultural themes in #RPGs #ttRPGs, as well as virtually all of the #GlobalSouth.

It occurs to me that a sufficient amount of time has passed that people might not actually remember or even know about d8 Magazine.
