Hire Yvris to write for your project
Yvris's storytelling is deft and bold in equal measure. With a deep understanding of the interactions between character, motivation, and setting, she never loses sight of either the player or the GM when crafting her adventures, leaving an intriguing trail of breadcrumbs that always lead to an explosive conclusion.
Yvris did a fantastic job writing a setting guide for the Isle of Pelops. She wrote an excellent piece with a tonne of research, plenty of hooks to engage the GM, and new stuff for the PCs to do. She even provided a map of the city! Total pleasure to work with and incredibly enthusiastic, will be hiring again as soon as I have something available.
Consistently creative and original submissions and a pleasure to work with
In addition to my own work I've had the pleasure of writing for other people's cool projects. I'd be happy to do so again if the timing and project were right.
I charge 12 British pennies per word (so around 16 cents in American money at the time of writing)

The Enemy of My Enemy (Gallows Corner Tales of Old England #3)
I wrote this zine for Three Sails Studios as part of their initial launch of Gallows Corner, a TTRPG set in the years before the Peasants Revolt of 1381. In The Enemy of my Enemy players are invited to travel back to medieval Barking, the site of one of the richest and most well-connected abbeys of the period, presided over by Katherine de Sutton, one of Britain's earliest female playwrights. The richness of this historical setting was a gift that just kept on giving.
Aegean: The Isle of Pelops (Chapter 9: Olympia)
Aegean is a heroic mythology TTRPG set in ancient Greece. This book is an expansion covering the isle of Pelops, home to Argos, Sparta, and Mykenai and the birthplace of the Olympic Games. I had a lot of fun researching the shrine at ancient Olympia and the sacred rites of the first games, then making those even spookier.
Beside the Lesser Travelled Road
Not out yet, but I contributed a creepy campsite to this collection. I got to flex some eldritch horror muscles that are now seeing more use in my own work.
A one-woman indie TTRPG studio from Yvris Burke, based in Manchester, UK. Whimsical, weird, and wonderful tabletop games.
