The Vorrh

B. Catling

The Vorrh stretches imagination until, as Terry Gilliam says, “it hurts.” That fearless strangeness keeps my sense of wonder sharp, so the book earns a permanent place on my list.

Eye, Film and Camera in Color Photography

R. Evans

Evan's cutting insight and wit on the topic of photography is unmatched. The clarity with which he presents the topic and his wholistic perspective makes me envy anyone that studied or worked with him. I can only hope to be half the genius he was.

The Open Boat

S. Crane

This is a work that I thankfully happened upon in a garage sale. Its short but deeply cutting narrative immediately pulled me in, and left me with a long lasting memory of nature's unrelenting force.

Mothership

Tuesday Knight Games

Mothership has changed me. I was unfortunately very late to the world of TTRPGs, but very thankful this was my first step. Bathed in the spirit of OSR and the mythos of Alien and Event Horizon, Mothership throws you into the depths of space without a towel...

Survive, Solve, Save. Choose One.

Moonbase Blues

Anodyne Printware

A one-shot for the Mothership RPG. This served as the first game I wardened (DM'd) and will last in my memory for a long time. A wonderful compact mystery horror, a moonbase overtaken by an azure aura.

Warning: may induce color related trauma

Cloud Empress

Worlds by Watt

Although I have yet to run a game with this ruleset spun off of Mothership's Panic Engine, I am already absorbed into the imaginative world of the Hereafter. I cannot wait to dive in.
