In episode 49 of Game Design Unboxed: Inspiration to Publication we talk with Roberta Taylor about her game Creature Comforts published by KTGB. This game was initially inspired by the changing of the seasons in Canada. The worker placement with the interesting dice mechanics came shortly after. Roberta talks about her design process, having Helaina Cappel look at her design then sign it after the Gathering of Friends. From the cute woodland creatures to the concept of cozy game design described in video games she was playing, Roberta designed a game that sold out immediately after it was delivered to backers. Both a good and bad problem to have!    Featuring:  Roberta Taylor - Guest  Danielle Reynolds - Host

In This Episode, Darlene and Roberta Taylor discuss: Transitioning in the second half of life gives room for opportunities but not always an easy journey. There is a greater need to promote this part of life. Roberta offers her expertise around this. One of the groups she offers is ”Embracing Seventy and Forward.” Key Takeaways: As women get older, they experience themselves in a different way which can be confusing and lonely and could benefit from the type of services Roberta offers. Retirement transitioning which Roberta specializes in can also be challenging for individuals and couples. It is important for women in this age bracket need to talk to other women. Having a purpose is so important. Some adult children have difficulty with their parents’ desire not to retire. Having a balance between staying independent and knowing when to ask for help. ”You bring women together and they talk and they engage. We get attached in a positive way.” - Roberta Taylor Connect with Roberta Taylor: www.Pathmaking.com www.pathmakingforlife.com  Connect with Darlene Corbett: Website: DarleneCorbett.com Book: Stop Depriving the World of You: A Guide for Getting Unstuck Please visit my website, sign up for my newsletter and receive the first few chapters of my book, Stop Depriving The World of You.  Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

Dacre Stoker is the great grand-nephew of Bram Stoker, author of Dracula. A long-lost journal written by the young Bram Stoker was recently discovered in the attic of his great grandson. The notebook reveals some of Bram's private thoughts and his developing style before he wrote Dracula.
