The Unfair Advantage of Being a #Librarian

All a librarian needs is their keyboard – and someone to teach them how to tag if they didn’t grow up with the knowledge at their fingertips – and the world will be theirs for the taking.

The Shipper’s Tipping Point (Full Moon Flu Special)

Why yes, I have the flu, glad you asked. And since I have been forced to leave the loving and dedicated care of the co-alpha, there is no one to stop me from indulging in some shameless feel-better activities. One of those – yup, you’ve guessed it again – is talking about shipping. Disclaimer: Semi-spoilers […]

The 9 Ports of Shipping (Full Moon Special #12)

Thus it came to pass that the twelfth Full Moon has risen above this humble larper (and larping writer) as she goes on with her monthly howling celebrations. This time – for this awesome year’s last Full Moon – we discuss the practice commonly known as shipping, ships, and everything else that rocks your ocean. For the […]

Do You Speek Geek? The Great Geek/Muggle Language Barrier (Full Moon Special #11)

The other day, one of my geeky colleagues (currently I’ve got but three) dropped by at the children’s department and we undertook a few minutes long chit-chat about random stuff (such as, what’s that you’ve got printed on your shirt – oh, it’s that and that fandom because of this and that ship – etc.). […]

Imagine, Build, Create Together – Getting Ready for Astra Larp (Full Moon Special #10)

Astra Larp, a twelve day pervasive larp designed and run by the co-alpha and I, starts in exactly seven days, on Wednesday, October 15th. As we near launch time (on the 15th, sometime during the morning), wrap everything that’s left to wrap (err… many things), the Full Moon will slowly start to wane and hide […]

Larp Management (Full Moon Special #9)

Bear with me for a second – after all, I’m an information specialist. (Yeah, its’ what it says on the label – instead of pointing a sniper at you, I’m gonna hit you with random facts and categories.) Do I really want to use such a bombastic term as management? I’ve come to believe I do. […]

The Importance of Writing What You Love (Full Moon Special #8)

Please note that I’m no professional in terms of getting paid to write (although writing, luckily, is a part of my current job). Therefore, I can be all “write what you love” etc. hippie. I would never suggest it’s the only way to be happy as a writer – it’s just a MO which currently […]

My Larping Is Not Your Larping (Full Moon Special #7)

Welcome to a brand new Full Moon Special here at the SnW! The title seems pretty self-explanatory, but to make stuff extra clear, it’s a list of things to keep in mind when you’re joining a game with people you haven’t previously played with – a list of differences in the players’ approach, which can cause misunderstanding […]

The Fanlarp (Full Moon Special #6)

Happy Full Moon! And it’s a thirteenth. And Friday, to add to that – plenty of scary fun to be had in the Moonlight… or anywhere else, for that matter. They say the next Friday Thirteenth Full Moon will be in 2049! So you better take good care to honour this one. Let me add […]

The Wolf Book of Larping for Couples (Three Years of Full Moons)

updated Oct 14th, 2017 The pack I used to belong to was a larping one through to its core, along with quite a few others among our friends, and that brought us both excitement and challenges unimaginable in our everyday lives. In this short ebook – a roundup of the Skirts ‘n’ Wolves first article […]
