I'm enjoying Fallen Empire, but man, every poncho I find is uglier than the last one. I'm not sure how that's possible
I probably won't write this much in a single day after January is over, but I'm very excited to cover February's topic, the Lychwood, so no promises.

Did a bit more writing on #dugeon23 today, creating two new articles (in my attempt to catch up to my January goal))

So today we get Regent's Tower, the central Castle (https://garden.cultoftheturtle.com/regents-tower), and perhaps the most important article to date, The Wall (https://garden.cultoftheturtle.com/the-wall)

I'm digging the tools on this: gastby.js static site generation, obsidian not taking tool as a CMS. Need to do some work to keep markdown frontmatter updated, but it's a good interface for writing, coupled with a good api for design, since I'm comfortable with React.

Also ditched the template's tailwind for open props and styled components for a much less verbose and focused development experience.

After some medical setbacks, my #Dungeon23 project is going online. Not a megadungeon, but a fantasy Dutchy I've been thinking about for a while. I'm hoping to do something different.

It's up at garden.cultoftheturtle.com/qedivar and will update pretty often, both content and design.

I've had a shit three weeks, but right now my daughter is helping our bonus granddaughter with her math homework and I couldn't be happier with my family right now.

Found some interesting pipeline ideas for going from obsidian md to a gatsby ssg and then on to netlify or vercel. Need to figure out how to do some automatic frontmatter, and I may have a simple solution for publishing my #dungeon23 project.

Had to stop my self from going into too much detail today. This isn't like NaNoWriMo where you can finish early, it's a daily practice of creativity and I don't want to burn out.
