FROM WITHIN
This grouping was selected at random from a communally generated master list of four hundred. It is my hope that these ten items can be used as a forecast or guide to your week ahead. You can also use a ten sided dice to turn each weeks items into a miniature oracle. Whether you choose to take these items literally or metaphorically, it’s up to you to find how these things may help. For a more thorough overview go to Introducing Bottomless Bag and Bottomless Bag 01.

DIGGING DEEPER
Usually you would find a deep dive into one of this week’s items in this section but I’m going to be doing something different here for the next few weeks.
We’re currently two weeks into the pre-order for my dice oracle, The Tethered Elements. I’ll only be printing what’s ordered between now and March 5th. It’s running a little bit like a Kickstarter with a couple stretch goals like extra dice and bigger sizes as we reach different milestones, including these: The Wilson Dice, named after Robert Anton Wilson. It’s a simple trinary oracle dice utilizing RAW’s favorite word, MAYBE. This will get included with every order if we reach fifty orders by the 5th.
The basic set will be a pair of dice and a twelve page instruction booklet with new illustrations by me. I’ve tried to make it similar to an indie board game manual.
Give The Tethered Elements a try. It’s an interesting experiment that I truly think any fan of my other work might enjoy.
That’s all for now. Come back next week for another dig into the BOTTOMLESS BAG.
As always:

DIG DEEP
AND
HAUNT ON
