About

Alone in the Dungeon is my journal, hobby log, and live play archive of my journey through solo roleplaying. I will also feature some solo friendly wargame coverage, tips on how you can jump into the world of solo tabletop gaming, and the narrative stories that come from doing so. I also believe that TTRPG are a form of self transformation and hopefully, self development and improvement. I want to share my experiences with you.

Matt Gilbert is Alone in the Dungeon. I am husband, father of four, artist, fledgling author, and apparently a miniaturist. Whatever that means. I'm just here having fun with it. I also run a daily hobby vlog and indie tabletop related youtube channel / website called The Hobbinomicon. You can check out all my projects by visiting mattglbrt.com.

I also sell 3d printed and resin cast miniatures that I do all by myself over at Yellow Imp Miniatures. Original sculpts from me coming soon.
