My cartoon for this week’s Guardian Books

I love the comics by Tom Gauld !

I have a quite severe fever, 40 C (104 F). I am eating paracetamol like crazy. Have spent the day looking at Unconscious Mind explanations. It looks very promising. I have so many things to do. I can’t spend my weekends sick! That sucks!

Please consider submitting one of your board game designs to SAGA. The Swedish Annual Game design Awards (SAGA) is a newly started competition for those who have found joy in creating board and card games. saga.boardgamedesign.se/sida/home.html

I have a new prototype that requires players to drop small people onto the table from height. I found these scary babies to use. They're freaking me out 😂

📢 SPEAKERS ANNOUNCED! Shameless plug for my Men in Business Conference 2025. I'm thrilled to announce the final list of EIGHT expert speakers for this very special event (pictured). Book now to avoid disappointment!

Which designers are the most fun to follow on social media? Who do you feel most engaged with? Name names. I'm asking because I'm looking to find a guest for a show that is better at it than me :) AND because I could do with learning a thing or two!

I have five contracts pending for my board game designs! Wohoo! I’m super happy to be appreciated by publishers. I hope next year’s releases will meet gamers around the world and that they will like the games as much as I did creating them. All love, Erik

Things are brewing! Just submitted several new mini modules to the publisher of Whirling Witchcraft, Alderac. Let's see where this rabbit hole leads us!

I just saw a first draft of the graphics for a game that @magnusuptime and I have designed. Fractal Juegos are really great with their graphics! I look forward to seeing the entire end-result! #spiel2025

We played a first game of Unconscious Minds tonight. The game stays in the house for more play throughs. We had fun and decided to add some of the simpler extra modules for next game.
