Find a mentor!

That's my (unsolicited) life advice for today.

Everyone is talking about Avery's thread re: game jams and crunch. It's a good thread; please go read it (I'll link to it at the bottom of this thread).

I want to talk about the importance of mentorship.

(thread) Avery's thread is directed at people who wish to make a living (or at least supplement their income) by making ttrpgs. Making a living at ttrpgs is definitely not easy—there are just basic market factors at play—but if you really want to have a go at it, try to find a mentor.

I wanted to post a follow-up thread about our statement yesterday re: Zak S. These are more my (Jason's) personal thoughts than official Gauntlet thoughts, but still highly relevant to the overall discussion.

(Thread) First of all: still waiting to hear from @DriveThruRPG and whether they are going to continue to carry his books in their marketplace. I have a feeling they will try to just ride this out in the hopes it will blow over, but I hope I'm wrong. The time to do the right thing is now.

Indie ttrpgs, a space I frequently to take to task (mind you, it comes from a place of love), suffers mightily from a syndrome I call the Same Five Dudes.

(Thread) Which is to say, no matter how diverse or woke or inclusive or anything else we aim to be, all of the benefits in terms of sales, social media love, convention appearances, etc., flow to the same small group of men, my “Same Five Dudes.”
