See you at Pax Aus 2026!

I’ll be attending Pax Aus again this year, but things are going to look a little different this time round.

If you’ve kept up with my shenanigans at convention, you will know that I normally spend most of my time of a con in the TTRPG area, running one shots of Vampire the Masquerade. Many of you have skipped the queue hall of Pax and run to the far end of the tabletop hall to book in with one of my games.

Well, this year I am not going to be running one shots in the TTRPG zone.

Instead, I am going to be busy in the theatres!

That’s right – I am part of 3 panels across the weekend in October!!!

The PaxAus panel schedule has just gone live, and you can find my name on three of the panels!

Saturday 10 October. I will be in the Fruitbat Theatre from 6:30pm, talking about “Being ‘old’ on the Internet” with Icy, ToastRackTV, Backyardis and FurySevenSix.



On Sunday 11 October, I’ll be back in the Kookaburra Theatre from 5pm, talking with Ann-Marie C, Hayley G and Nicole K, about books that have been made into games, in “From Pages to Play.

And a Very Special Announcement…

Saturday evening, from 8:30pm (yes, right after my earlier panel) in the Owlbear Theatre, I will be taking four forever DMs through a very special one shot of Vampire the Masquerade set at the convention itself, in “PaxAus by Night“!

Join BarmE, Hexes & Vexes, pr0mythean and Ben as they navigate their first game of VtM, Pax and potential vampire hunters amongst the Enforcers. Delightful vampires in the audience will have the chance to roll some dice to either aid or complicate our new fledglings as they deal with being fresh kindred. Make sure you’re in the Owlbear Theatre for 8:30pm on Saturday to join in the shenanigans!

If you haven’t already secured a ticket to Pax, they’re running out fast, so head on over to the website and grab one now! I’ll see you at Pax Aus!

The 2026 Social Media Planner

It’s baaaa-aaack! The 2026 Social Media Planner is back – and with new features!

If you aren’t familiar with the social media planner, it’s a simple spreadsheet that allows you to plan out the themes, links, copy and content of your social media posts ahead of schedule, so you aren’t scrambling to come up with content ideas. You can also see at a glance what has been planned for what channel, meaning you don’t have to scroll through each platform to find that one post.

This year, I’ve been working on a new feature that means you don’t have to manually hide columns for social media platforms you don’t use any more! Don’t use paid ads on social? Just make sure the “Do you do any paid social media posts?” checkbox is unchecked and all those columns will be hidden (you can always come back later and unhide them, if you want). Use Facebook, but not Tumblr? Simply check the boxes next to the social media platforms you do use, and your planner will only show those columns!

This is where the Social Media Planner comes in.

The Overview sheet helps you see major events throughout the year, like conventions or sales, while each moth goes into as much or as little details as you’d like.

I’ve also added columns for Australian public holidays, because so few tools exist for us. If you aren’t from Australia or if you interact with a few different countries, I’ve also included a link to international public and bank holiday information, so you can tweak those columns to suit your needs.

So, if you’ve grown your social media to a point where planning would help lessen the daily posting process, download it today and, if it works for you, might I suggest buying me a Ko-fi?
