Quick Note – Pyramids, Light Houses and Horns … Oh My!
Today I finished the Temple of the Fallen God dungeon for my “Pyramid of the Lost King” adventure/mini-sandbox! This puts the adventure at 25 pages with no monster stats, maps or art. I will hopefully be able to get the pyramid itself done by the end of the weekend and go into proofreading and mapping! […]
Quick Note – What I’m working on today.
As everyone has probably figured out between a family issue and other things I’ve fallen behind in my patreon managing … Today I work on partially fixing that with both the text and editing for the complete anthology those patreons who are in for a $1.00 or more.

Quick Note – Two Things
Been a quiet week over here at Genius Loci. The little guy broke his leg and Code Name: the Wife has been working crazy hours … so why it has been quiet on the blog life itself has been anything but. So, I wanted to say sorry for that and also say two other things: […]
