I once wrote a blog asking the Question are we really all in this together? https://agameraday.blogspot.com/2020/12/the-adventures-of-chantel-26-and-this.html.

And as you can tell by the title of this blog, I still wonder are we all in this together? If we are to busy fighting about what makes a family on Twitter, I don’t think we are. Now I know that Twitter needs the Drama of us fighting about stupid stuff like that. But we can do better and if we really believe we can beat the math of Twitter and Facebook and any other Social Media we have to do better.

I Know it’s short but that is all I got, and tomorrow is this week in gaming so maybe there will be more thoughts on this subject. So until than keep gaming.

I turn 38 in 10 days, you wonder why that matters? well it’s simple that means I have a year and a half to make it on to the 40 under 40 list. I don’t think I am going to make it, and even if I did, I don’t they have a list like that for writers of RPG’s. And I guess that is okay, because I have already said lists like that are dumb and I don’t even remember why I wanted to be on that list. I guess it’s because there was a time in my life that I cared what people thought.

I heard back from Anchor and they are still working on the issue, I guess that means we follow up again next week or at the start of next month, we will see.

Now it’s time to get on to the part of the blog that we have all been waiting for the three goals that I have that are going to help me take over the world one game store at a time.

This week is all about The King’s Castle. https://www.lulu.com/en/us/shop/chantel-jones/ch1-the-kings-castle/paperback/product-7dg5y4.html?page=1&pageSize=4

One Goal is to get 50 dollars or to sale 10 copies of each book. I would really like to sell the PoD’s on Lulu, but There is still one day left for the Small Press Spotlight on Drivethru. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/14046/Chantel-Jones?term=Chantel Plus if I sold them through Drivethru I would maybe have enough points to submit a deal of the day.

This week I am going to get the adventure for Ice and Dice done.

There are some other Business things that are not writing, that I am going to get done this week, that will help like getting more stuff on eBay.

There you have it, so until next time keep gaming.

It’s been a few days since I have heard from the people at Anchor, so I sent them an email, more updates coming as I know.

I went to drivethru last night get get a link for Trick or Treat and found out that Drivethru is having a small press spotlight sale. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/14046/Chantel-Jones it last for the next four days.

I use to work with this guy and every day he would tell me how much he hates is life, he had a full time job working where we worked, and then on Saturday he had a part time job working for the Post Office. And every day I would tell him to find a different job, He had a degree in Film making so he could go do that.

I saw him today, and I am not sure his life is any better, I mean being a manager at a Thrift can’t really be better than working at Nu Skin can it? I don’t think so, but the point is if it works for him and his family than it’s good enough.

I have a pretty good life, I mean it would be nice if I could pay all the bills with my writing and patreon, and maybe some day I will so I don’t have to go to a job I hate. but at the end of the day I am doing what I enjoy and that is good enough for me.

Happy Thor’s day to all of you. Aside from maybe playing a game or two of Magic, I don’t know how much gaming as gone on since last week. Ok I lied I did get a game of Phase 10 in with the family.

The Facebook crash was nice. I was not going to talk about it a lot, but saw someone ask if it was really that big of a deal? Yeah for some of us it was, there are people that use it as a means to talk to people, and others that use it of business. I mean it sucks as a place trying to promote your work, but it’s a way.

The Final Dream: The Temple of Zeus is coming a long, it will be done this week I think, there are somethings I have to do for my wife’s business, so we will see. And then I will just need art.

Ravenloft: Yes well here we are. I really need to get The Temple of Golden Nuts done, so I can focus on this all the time.

Alright that’s it for this week, so until next time keep gaming.

Alright it’s a new week, I’ve got this Right? I think.

For a minute I thought I have figured out the issue with Anchor, but it seems I had not, so we will keep waiting to hear back from them. If I don’t hear anything by Friday I will email them.

VGC2 has come to an end. it was a fun weekend of gaming. I was able to run Castle Roan for a group. They killed the White and the Blue Dragon, and The Red Dragon never showed up. https://www.lulu.com/en/us/shop/chantel-jones/adventure-module-r1-castle-roan/paperback/product-p4en28.html?page=1&pageSize=4

I was on a twitch show, and I should have had the show on in the background so I could have shared a link to the website but I did not even think about that until I was getting dressed today. So something to remember next year.

Next up on the con events is Ice and Dice on January I don’t remember the dates, and I am lazy to look them up, but I know there will be other blogs where I talk about it so it’s ok.

It’s a new month and I have not talked about it yet, but this month the goal is to get three goblins to join the Goblin Forces. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true.

In September I made 6.66 dollars from Patreon. 2.08 on Drivethru and 0 dollars on Lulu. and I think I use to track Ebay, I have not got the report yet, but I think I made about 200 dollar.

Alright my friends I like that is it for today, so until next time keep gaming.

This week I am going to be Promoting Castle Roan. It will also be the Item for Two for Tuesday. https://www.lulu.com/en/us/shop/chantel-jones/adventure-module-r1-castle-roan/paperback/product-p4en28.html?page=1&pageSize=4

The First Goal this week is to get The Temple of Golden Nuts done. I have one more Cat of The Round Table to do in the morning and then, I can get the rest of the adventure typed up. I might need to get a new artist, but we will figure that out before my post on Thursday.

The second Goal is to get going more on the Adventure for Ice and Dice. I need to get it done because the guy doing the maps, wants a copy so he can get a feel for my style.

The last goal is only related to gaming, because I will look good for Ice and Dice, but I really need to get back to working out so I can be a different shape than round.

There you have for this week’s goals, so until next time keep gaming.

It’s been a busy but good week, let’s start with I got a new Goblin and that means I am half way to meeting this months goal. There is still time to join the patreon. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true. Today I will be adding two more Cats of the Round Table.

Virtual Greyhawk con is tomorrow, I think I am mostly ready. I will hopefully everyone’s characters so I can set up roll20 tonight.

The Final Dream: Work on the Temple of Golden Nuts is coming along, when I am done with this blog, I will get more work done on the Cats of the Round table. Then once that is done the rest of the rooms will take like a day, and we will be done with level 3.

The Ice and Dice Adventure: I just sent of the concept for the cover art, now I need to get to writing it.

I think that is it for this week, so until next time keep gaming.

There is so much to do before the con this weekend. I have to do my Patreon stuff for the coming month. Still trying to find a job, and so much other stuff.

I don’t think I am going to get everything in the Temple of Golden Nuts done before the end of tomorrow. The things I am doing with the Knight of the Round table is turning out to be bigger then I thought but I should have known that was how it was going to be.

That being said, the Temple of Set will come out in Q4, so I guess getting to adventures will be a good deal.

When I sat down to write this blog, I thought it was going to be longer, but I think that is all I got so until next time keep gaming.

Now if you know me, some would think when I ask do you remember you’re going to think the next part of the question is the 21st night of September. but this time you would be wrong. Today I am going to ask Do you remember when I said if WotC wanted to make the most money they could they would make a D&D 5.5? If you don’t it’s okay I got your back. https://agameraday.blogspot.com/2021/02/wizards-first.html

https://agameraday.blogspot.com/2021/02/wizards-part-two-or-what-are-we-to-do.html

I don’t think this blog is going to have two parts. But let’s get into it, everyone should have seen this coming with all the rule books that were coming out, and when they sent out the survey asking about what you thought of the Classes in the PHB?

I guess the biggest thing I want to talk about is that it will be D&D 5.5 and not 6e because if they brand it as a new game, they are going to lose all those people that I talked about in the first blog, and will have to start rebuilding what they already have. but if they brand it .5 like they did back in the day with 3, those people that have decided that 5e is their game will start buying the .5 books.

The other thing about it not being 6e. This is just a cash grab like I said it would be. How do I know this. the Gift set that is coming out in January, will later in the year be sold as single books. If it was going to be a new editions they would dump all their 5e stuff in a mad dash to get ready for 6e. There is also the always you know a new edition coming out sign. They have not said anything about a Manual of the Planes. the white flag that an edition is dying.

Now there are some people that say how do you know it’s 5.5 and not 6e they were really vague While they have to be, if they came out and said that in 2024 we are making 6e, everyone would stop buying the books that are coming out between now and then even if they are backwards compatible.

Side note the first. what does backwards Compatible even mean these are books not a Play station 5, you can convert any book you want to fit the system you want, it’s always been that way. It’s one of the things that makes the game so Great!

Side note 2. They have to be vague because if WotC said we are coming out with D&D 6e in 2024, the Production of PF 3 would start tomorrow and would come out before 6e and might just might take the spotlight from WotC again. and wizards can’t have that.

Alright I think that is all I have to say about that, so until next time keep gaming.

This week, I am promoting the Bundle for The Final Dream I. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/361392/The-Final-Dream-I-BUNDLE?affiliate_id=1559598. I don’t think The Temple of Golden Nuts will be ready for the Bundle this week, even if I was able to finish all the typing I am waiting for the art.

I have some things I need to update on the Patreon, so it is my goal to get those done on Thursday before I get in to VGC2 this weekend. https://www.patreon.com/user?u=14964776&fan_landing=true. there is still time to become a Goblin for this month.

When I finish the Temple of Golden Nuts, I can start working on The Temple of Set, but it is almost done, so I think I am going to focus on the Ice and Dice adventure. I really need to get a lot done on that.

I think that is it for this week, so until next keep gaming.
