The new year is fast approaching and I am getting into a TTRPG mood thinking about #hexcrawl25
and how hard it was to bring myself to opening the journal and penning something out.
I don't have a routine, I'm a music student finishing their final quarters of college, and the #dungeon23 #lore24 #hexcrawl25 challenges have been abysmally hard to maintain. I lasted about a month this year, albeit with very cool entries.

My goal with #hexcrawl25 was to follow the freeing medium of hexes, and be allowed to make each entry whatever I liked, but it wasn't freeing. If I wanted to insert a character or piece of lore, it had to come with physical territory/landmass to match. It caused too much overthinking, and a fear of not reaching perfection (and where there's musicians, there's perfectionism). The urge to make each entry one piece of a fleshed out system was too much to bear for one of my schedule.
