Aside from the actual PLAYING of games, my favorite things about this wonderful hobby are those two bastions of DIY creativity, zines and blogs. Join me each Wednesday on the Thought Eater podcast as I share the blogposts, zines, and RPG bric-a-brac that caught my eye over the week.

Have you started a new blog recently? Are you working on a zine? Are you a content creator that would like to be considered for an interview on the show? Want to send me review copies of what you're working on? I want to hear from you! Email me at frothsof at gmail, hit me up on Twitter, or use the contact form on my blog (visible in desktop mode in the right-hand column).

Festival Games and Fortunes from Douglas J Coughler

So you want to have a festival? Bring it to life with this great collection of games, encounters, items, and more! Even includes fortune telling. Outstanding.

Multiple Adventures from Peter Kuna

Red Like Blood

Bathhouse Diplomacy

Infiltration

Sewer Snakes 

In Your Parents' Embrace

Peter Kuna BURST onto the scene over the last couple of weeks with a series of really nice one-shot adventures. To be honest, these would be worth snagging simply for the incredible maps, which Peter does themselves. Creative hooks. Good stuff.

Animated Tarokka Cards from Linus

These are little animated files of the Tarokka cards from Curse of Strahd flipping over. Nothing too mind-blowing, but could add a little fun and flavor if you are running it online.

Storm Spells from Whitney Ahn

Short collection of creative weather-related spells. Really flavorful and perfect for fleshing out a sorcerer or druid build.
