Mother Goose's book: preserves stories; seems to have its own prescriptive opinions about the 'correct' form of those stories, but does allow Tim to make his own decisions about which stories to preserve and which to leave walking the world

The Stepmother: voraciously (indiscriminately?) devours stories to empower herself at their expense, trapping and torturing them in a screaming amalgam; inserts herself into stories, warping them to her own ends

Indie TTRPG designers: look over here!

Are you a TTRPG game designer who would like an example of play for your game but have no means to produce one? Or maybe the Actual Play example on your itch page is one of you and some friends, and you'd like to feature someone ELSE playing your game? I'm streaming one-shots of indie games, and I'm looking for games like yours to play!

My name is Taylor, and I've been streaming TTRPGs on Twitch for a little over two years, focusing on one-shots and indie games. My favorite thing is introducing guests and viewers to games they've never heard of, and watching them fall in love.
