Hello everyone (Hi Mom!)!
It’s very likely you know me but just in case, I’m Chris Mennell, and I’m a creative writer who loves generating content for tabletop roleplaying games — new worlds, weird creatures, interesting characters — all sorts of content. I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was 15, in the 25+ years since I haven’t wasted anytime dreaming up new and weird ideas I want to explore via gameplay.
For the past year, I’ve been sharing my ideas and content via a group on Facebook, called CHRIS MENNELL PRESENTS: TABLETOP ROLEPLAYING (TTRPG) IDEAS AND ART (which you’re welcome to join if you haven’t done so already). I finally decided I wanted to expand a bit, and start reaching out to people via email, sharing my ideas directly to their inbox.
I’m planning to start sending out the actual newsletter this Sunday, and continuing forward from there with original ideas and insights every week.
I want you to know I love conversation, and part of the fun I get is sharing ideas on Facebook and getting feedback from contributors. You can reach me anytime via email at thesecretdm@gmail.com.
Over the next few months, I’m hoping to evolve this newsletter in different ways, growing the kind of content I share to include interviews with game designers, contributions by other guest writers, and even original art, available with a license for you to use with your own personal or commercial work.
Thanks so much for your interest, have a great week and weekend!
