About me
✨Hopefully, if you've seen me around on Twitter or at a show, you said hello because I love meeting new people and making new friends!✨ ⭐I'm currently the Lead Editor at Steamforged Games and Social Media Coordinator and Community Committee for Baldman Games, plus the RPG Director for MomoCon (which is an amazing show in Atlanta that you should check out)...all of which sounds like a lot because frankly, it is. 📚For those of you who want to check out my work, the easiest way is going to be by heading over to the DMsGuild or DriveThruRPG where I have numerous bestselling titles available. 📣I've done a LOT of DMing at conventions and for various charity groups, leading to a vast knowledge of how to understand and engage a variety of players and keep things on track. 🆕I LOVE RUNNING D&D FOR NEW PLAYERS! Ever wanted to try D&D but know nothing about it? I'd love nothing more than to teach it to you and your friends, and show you first-hand why it's one of the fastest-growing hobbies in the world. Bring yourself and an open mind to the table - I'll do the rest! 🏳️🌈I am queer and my tables are 100% trans, queer, LGBTQ+, and POC friendly. My NPCs will include people of color, queer folk, trans folk, elves with the Blessing of Corellon, same-sex married couples, and/or inclusion of a broad representation of the human experience. 🦺Safety tools are available and I can walk through how to use those for any group. My goal is to give my players full empowerment to stop the game, skip over content, or change the tenor of the game so that they are comfortable.
GM Style
My style is highly influenced by what my players want. I can craft a rich story full of depth and intrigue or I can run a traditional dungeon crawl full of combat and exploration while keeping things moving. While I may not be the best at character voices, I try to give life to all of my NPCs and create unique personalities for them allowing for as much or as little roleplay as my players want. I also highly enjoy utilizing props (costumes, handouts, physical items) to enhance a game and make each experience truly unique.

I've had the pleasure of playing in four different games with Ginny - two in Theros, one in the Forgotten Realms, and one in Ravenloft. She's great at details, articulate, and engages with the players throughout the adventure. Whenever I see she's running a game, I always see if I can sign up for it, even if it's not a game or setting I'd normally play. If you see she has an open spot in one of her tables, you should sign up.

No players in our party had ever played a TT RPG before, but Ginny was a great teacher. Her characters were engaging and fun. It was like having a friend who is also a professional DM. Now we're kind of hooked and want to do a whole campaign.

Ginny has a very relaxed style, but she does a great job of maintaining the flow of the game. She was very helpful with acclimating me to Roll20 . She has a great sense of story and it was easy to visualize what was happening in the game, based on her descriptions.

Ginny has an effervescent personality that really shines through when running her games. She is lively and energetic, and empowers her players to "just try it, what's the worst that could happen?" She's a deviously capable powergamer, too, when the situation requires it - if that's what the players what, that's the kind of game that the players will get! (something something too many slimes)

Ginny is an amazing GM. I have personaly played in a couple of her games and she always did a fantastic job. Her games were very fun and entertaining. I enjoyed myself both times. She is extremely knowledgeable about the game she is running and plays her part as gamemaster wonderfully.

Ginny is a blast. I've known Ginny for a couple years through conventions and I've seen her DM a few times but this was my first opportunity to play at her table. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Ginny's style is exciting and also relaxed. I felt safe and respected at her table and she was helpful and supportive with some of the connectivity issues I had while setting up the virtual tabletop. She is also a content creator and I have enjoyed several of her adventures. I look forward to the opportunity to play at Ginny's table again soon.
