Autism, Agency, and The Witcher
February 2020
Behold, the long march out of winter continues. This month, we’re leading with social justice posts, which is a pretty standard move for us if we’re being honest. Juliette Dunn wrote us a fantastic post on autism in storytelling, and we also talk about sexism in the new Witcher show on Netflix, because nothing is sacred!If you’re after more technical advice, Chris explains why urban fantasy masquerades don’t work. After that, we dive into one thing the latest Star Wars film did right (surprise!), and then we finish up with agency and the latest in our Unearthed Arcana series. We hope you enjoy it!

Fantasy Racism, Bad Writing Lessons, and Barbarians
January 2020
2019 is finally over! In the name of leaving the past behind, we have three posts with a social justice bent. We covered fantasy racism, women and agency, and why some dark subjects are more sensitive than others. For technical advice, check out that post on character agency or read the newest entry in our Lessons From Bad Writing series. And for roleplayers, our article on D&D’s newest edition to the barbarian class was all the rage last month (ba dum tish)!What Makes an Antagonistic Group Problematic?
