Wait, y'all did Back Again from the Broken Land?!? It was your husband I met / played that game with at Gencon?
What a small world.
Though I suppose the world of orthodox weird Catholic feminists is probably smaller than one would hope, and I did find out about the game from Tushnet.
In any case, I love that game. It's currently tied with "Kiss Me Before the World Ends" as my favorite short-form narrative RPGs. Such great vibes.
Ah! How delightful. We're going back this year and running a three table (lunatic) session of Masks. It's three tables, three different time periods, and the possibility of warping and e.g. fighting alongside your teammates' parents!
Too bad! That was actually my biggest criticism of your book - it's SO pink, it was almost like the publishers wanted to make sure men would never read it. (This is sort of a back handed compliment - I really liked your book!)
Yes please! You can venmo me @leah-libresco or paypal at leah.libresco@gmail.com. Then fill out the form and attach the screenshot. Maybe write down in the memo line for either form of payment that it's for Back Again, so I don't get mixed up :)

Very cool! We won't be there this year, but if y'all are there next year, let me know!
Alexi usually goes every year, and I go about every other year :)
I like these magnets but I just can't do the hot pink. Do they come in any other colors?
It's a little less lurid in person—it's roughly the color of the book. But, alas, I can't really swing the cost of multiple colorways.

Haha, yes, I know exactly what you mean.
You can slip off the dust jacket, at least, to read it discreetly on the metro.
OK sorry apparently "back handed compliment" means exactly the opposite of what I was trying to convey!
I liked your book a lot. I didn't like the pink.
Just ordered 3 copies on Amazon... Two for our married daughters. Amazon offered a three for the price of two.
Beautiful. And congrats! Can’t wait to read it.
Is DoD coming out in softcover anytime soon? I already have it on kindle and want a paper copy but not hardback.
(Also, I kind of love that the acronym is DoD)
My hope is yes, but I don't think I'll hear an update from the publisher until this fall.
Leah, how do I buy the RPG directly from you? I have a child who neeeeeds it 😁

Leah! I am guilty of poor reading, and I didn't read the part about the memo line before I rushed off to PayPal. I apologize 😔
I would rather you ask and get to play the game than give up in silence!
