Backup phone now set up as a Bookhouse Institute phone. Means, other than creating things using my laptop, I should be able to run the Institute from this one phone.
I would like to see that in action. So let’s try it for a bit.

The Bookhouse Institute does not use AI. Why would we use the slop machines? We use tarot cards if we want to add abstractions into creativity and self-reflection.

Sorry I haven’t texted back. The old world is dying, the new one is struggling to be born, and apparently *now* is the time of monsters.

If I am not responsive, it is because I am putting the finishing touches to a small 1970s British #folkhorror one-shot #TTRPG.
I have hidden a #treasurehunt in it.
The prize is a one-of-a-kind rulebook for a tabletop RPG called Department 23.
It will never be reprinted or recreated.
Solve the puzzles and find the location in the UK first and it is yours. And its publishing rights.
The only way to get this FREE one-shot is to add yourself to our waiting list: https://bookhouse.uk/waiting-list/

Our first publication to be released is The Grimpen Affair. A small folk horror roleplaying game based in 1970s Britain. Think X-Files meets The Wicker Man. Only not that.
Hidden in that small free game is a treasure hunt that will lead you to somewhere in the UK. Find that location and what is hidden there and a unique treasure will be yours. To keep. To do with what you will.

I am on the hunt for people who make things. Physical things. Physical things in a workshop. Or at home. Or in a studio. Or outside. But they have to be physical things. And you make them. Handmade or with machines.
I’d like to follow you and see what you make.
Please can you boost this post so that I get some reach on this post.
Many thanks.

So the idea of Bookhouse is basically inspired by this book from 1979 called ‘Masquerade’ by an artist called Kit Williams.
He hid a golden hare in the UK and wrote this book and filled it full of paintings as the clues to where the treasure is buried.
I’m trying to do the same. But different.
