Page Break Podcast Episode 29: Runesmith

The twenty-ninth episode of my new podcast Page Break is now out! In this episode, my guest is YouTuber Logan Reese, better known by his online handle Runesmith.

Logan gives viewers his comedic take on writing and Dungeons & Dragons on his Runesmith YouTube channel and has a liveplay series called Tall Tales. He also writes and produces supplemental modules for Dungeons & Dragons including the wildly successful Kickstarted “Stibbles’ Code of Companions” and “The Seeker’s Guide to Twisted Taverns.”

Logan and I chat about Logan's YouTube channel, creative collaboration, writing for tabletop gaming, the burnout so common amongst weekly creators, and how algorithms and fan demand inevitably steer our professional lives.


Page Break with Brian McClellan is a collection of casual conversations between me and fellow creative professionals—like two friends sitting down over lunch to discuss career, craft, family, and hobbies.

Authorhood is a quiet sort of minor fame where the person behind the words is often obscured by the works they’ve created. I aim to use this podcast to find out more about my friends and colleagues.

Look forward to weekly conversations with creators like TV writer/producer Joseph Mallozzi, epic fantasy author Robin Hobb, science fiction author Pierce Brown, Twitch streamer Mark Hulmes, and many more!
