Well hey. It’s me. Alan. The guy who does stuff at Gallant Knight Games, and other places as Northern Lights Foundry. I don’t have a personal mailing list and while I have a blog, I thought this substack thing might be a good try.

I intend the NLF dispatches to be complimentary to my posting and work at www.alanbahr.net, likely doubled up at times, sometimes not. I’m not particularly trying to spread myself around, but managing multiple mailing lists is a lot of work, and I already manage too many.

I’m hoping this will make it easier somehow.

How? I don’t know. I just kinda like trying new things.

Northern Lights Foundry is the personal imprint where I do work and media production for companies outside of Gallant Knight Games. It includes games, podcasts, and more.

I write a lot of games and I can’t always publish all my work at GKG, so Northern Lights Foundry is how I get the rest out. I partner with other publishers and studios to create works (my own) or as a freelancer for them.

So what can you expect? Well

news about my upcoming releases from Osprey Games

Tombpunk news

projects I work on in a freelance capacity

my upcoming work in comics

podcasting (Rich August and I have a non-RPG-centric podcast being recorded now, and there’s at least one more RPG-centric podcast coming)

little bits of GKG news

musings on RPGs and other media/culture

probably some philosophy and poetry (I’ve found the mental capacity to dig back into those loves of mine, and it’s been wonderful)

and more probably.

I don’t know how frequently I’ll use this. Maybe weekly. Maybe daily (that seems unlikely knowing me), but you can expect at least something semi-regularly. I need to get back in the habit of writing and this is part of that effort.

See you down the road.

Alan
