![]() ![]() 2.2 Pokémon GO Tour: Johto Battle Challenge.Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.My husband, Rick Barrio Dill, and I have also recently launched a podcast studio and network called S.L.A.P., and we have LOTS of things lined up for the rest of the year… you can keep up with all of what's going on there at. The whole game is so intriguing – Im as excited to play it as I am to be in it. Then, The Lamplighters' League launches on October 3rd, and this one is just great fun – my character, Purnima, is described as "a disarming cheerful sniper" – she's a paradox for sure and complex and wonderful. I'm planning to be doing a few things at San Diego Comic-Con, my shooting schedule for other projects permitting, and I'm extremely excited about two games that will be coming out – Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical launches on August 3rd, and it's the first game of its kind – a musical RPG where your choices as the player completely change what songs you hear or don't (not to mention Laura Bailey is the lead in the game and she's phenomenal). What else can we expect from you over the rest of the year? I can't wait for the full system to be out there. There is just so much possible with this system. ![]() Credit: Critical RoleĪs wonderful as you could expect…people seem to be really enjoying it and all of the characters, and most of all, I just hope what they walk away with is a sense of excitement to play the game. It was surprisingly simple – which I was grateful for because we got to the fun of playing very quickly! We had a playtest where we learned about the game, and then a session zero, and it was so fun figuring out what was possible. What was it like for you to get used to the new game mechanics, especially with it being an in-house design? Plus, I've never seen Critical Role do something I wasn't interested in, and I always know it's going to be a fantastic time with amazing people when they call. And after playing D&D for so long, I loved the idea of stepping into a world where the supernatural and magic did exist, but still weren't the norm – the sense of wonder about it was still strong. ![]() I also loved the fantasy time period that it was set in – while it was clearly fantasy and wasn't taken directly from history, I loved the turn-of-the-century feel, and the aesthetic that surrounded it. I'd never played anything in the horror genre before – the closest I can remember was We're Alive: Frontier using the Outbreak: Undead system, but that's more survival horror than this seemed to be. I really wanted this book to let people know that simple thing because it is something that is so easy to forget when we're in pain, but it's such a powerful help to know. The reactions have been overwhelmingly positive, and I'm happy to say that the thing people seem to be taking away the most is exactly what I had hoped they would – the confirmation (or, for some people, the new knowledge) that they aren't alone in their struggles and that even if their circumstances aren't the same as others, there is always someone around who has been through something similar or who will walk beside them while they experience them. What's the reaction been like from readers, and what do you see people take away from it the most? Truly unexpected, and I'm extremely grateful for that. And even more blown away that we hit so many bestseller lists – The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Barnes and Noble, and Amazon in 7+ categories. I was already excited about getting the book into people's hands after the Kickstarter, but then when we did the public launch, I was blown away by the response. It's been a wonderful whirlwind and continues to be so. ![]()
