"The cruelty of life in America seems like it has reached a fever pitch. It's not easy to be a writer, programmer, or artist in 2026."

Absolutely gutted not to be at #NarraScope in #Albany this week. Hopefully next time. I so, so thoroughly enjoyed the last 2 years of attendance.

Repeating last retwoot:

NarraScope online registration closes tonight at 11:59 pm Eastern! If you want to follow the streams live (on Discord) and participate in the conference chat, you must register *today*.

I was up late for #NarraScope anyway, so I'm doing #Monsterdon once again. As always, mute the hashtag if you don't want to hear about the movie (Class of 1999)!

Knocking together a very quick Twine project for a #NarraScope workshop tomorrow. Be sure to keep an eye out for the finished thing! #ScreenshotSaturday

The NarraScope talk schedule and speaker list is up now:

Finally getting around to sharing the video of the talk Francisco and I gave at this year's #narrascope —all about how we prototyped and "telotyped" parts of Rosewater with tabletop RPG scenarios and a fully playable Twine model. (It includes a link to try the model for yourself!)

Could be a fun watch if you're curious about new ways to test out parts of your narrative at any stage in development—or if you just want a peek behind the scenes of Rosewater!

Today is the last day of #NarraScope 2025, so after the conference you can listen to Jason Compton and me interviewing @zarfeblong about some of his earliest works of #InteractiveFiction.

Safely back home after a wonderful #NarraScope, meetings, and an incredible #NBPy! Was lovely to be surrounded by friends and people interested in what we’re up to. But it’s amazing to be home!

Honestly, thank you for running events that have a #COVID19 safety policy, which means I can worry slightly less about getting sick via doing one of my favourite things: attending events to shitpost on social media. #NBPy #Narrascope

One of the many cool things I learned at #narrascope (not even in a talk but rather in the kind of accidental side conversation at a bar that makes conference-going worthwhile) is Colin Post’s project to acquire and read *every one* of the dozens of hypertext novels published by Eastgate in the 80s and 90s—works that are totally inaccessible on modern operating systems.
