Our new book with Stefan Poag's cover, Delicious in Whiterock, is available to reserve now until April 7!

Delicious in Whiterock is a cookbook and survival guide with recipes for D&D/DCC Monsters from Goodman Games' upcoming Castle Whiterock. It's got 21 recipes you can actually cook - with substitutions for monster meat, of course - and tips on how to hunt down these creatures on all of Castle Whiterock's 15 main levels.

Once you reserve it, you receive Delicious in Whiterock when you pledge for a print copy of Descent of the Ancient Fane, our 91-area megadungeon that links with Castle Whiterock and reveals Whiterock's secret, diabolical history.

Your $5 reservation is applied to your pledge. This means Delicious in Whiterock is complimentary!

Delicious in Whiterock not only features Stefan's art on the cover, it has art for each entry from top indie TTRPG artists like Goran Gligovic and Scotty Monster (seen below).

You only have until April 7, when Descent of the Ancient Fane launches, to grab Delicious in Whiterock at this price! So head over now and don't miss this amazing, unique work by Stefan Poag, Goran, Scotty and more!

Lost an order? We like to think we leaped right on the issue.

Now, those of you who haven't received your books yet will have replacement orders sent out on Tuesday of this week!

In other exciting news about The Witch's Wyrd, Archie and I are working on the sequel, Ruins of Resurrection, set in the nearby Elven ruins of Nar-Vedryn.

Ruins of Resurrection is slated to be a 2nd Level D&D 5e/Level 1 DCC adventure that explores the philosophical dilemmas around the nature of the self. We look forward to many thought-provoking sessions next year!

Also in the Witch Pleas Publishing world, we launched our Pre-Order Store for our latest module, When the Stars Cried Despair. It's a thrilling, horror-themed funnel that serves as the prequel for our Castle Whiterock tie-in, Descent of the Ancient Fane, coming in April 2026!

So, if you missed out on When the Stars Cried Despair, or want one of the Witch Pleas Publishing adventures at a discount - like our classic, narrative-focused campaign, A Tale of Two Sisters - head over to the Pre-Order Store.

And don't forget to follow Descent of the Ancient Fane! Its Follower Count goes a long way to making this ambitious project, the most hellish megadungeon ever, a success. Plus, you'll enjoy exclusive Follower and early Backer rewards, like Delicious in Whiterock, the exclusive cookbook survival guide companion to a Castle Whiterock campaign!

Most importantly, may your holiday season be merry and bright, friends! We appreciate each and every one of you!

On the occasion of Thanksgiving, 2025, we want to thank you, personally, the person reading this email.

You did something amazing this year. You helped create a little game that's going to cause someone joy, inspire a new idea and get someone excited.

You helped make someone cheer, or fall asleep thinking of something cool that happened, or even look at the world in a new way.

So, thank you. We're grateful to have you on the team. We hope that we treat you as special as you are.

And we wish you a beautiful day, basking in gratitude, feeling blessed.

- Matt, Gina and the Witch Pleas team

We'll keep it short and - hopefully - sweet, Old John Stuart Mill Backers!

If you've not received your books, you should have by now. Please reach out directly at [email protected], as we're compiling a list of those who have fallen afoul of a delivery mishap.

The same applies for Roll20. We sent out codes via BackerKit's Digital Delivery early last week, and so you should have received your redemption code. A handful of people have reported that they didn't, so we'd like to help you personally. Reach out at [email protected]

This is all to say, if you lack reward, we will help! Contact us at our main customer service address, [email protected] and we'll set things right.

As we're going to be unavailable due to family matters from Friday to Monday, we'll start mailing out missing books next week, prior to and immediately subsequent to the Thanksgiving holiday here in the States.

Thank you very much for your patience and for any extraordinary outreach!
