Anything more focused on reading or writing than clicking or playing: storytelling RPGs, essays, books, zines. And that aren't in other themes/continuities.
Working in a middle school English classroom introduced me to the beauty of the verse novel. I dabbled in the form as a way to wind down a day and discovered how much I enjoyed verse poems myself. One of the bonus poems, Where Sea Urchins Sleep, was a song that came to me in a dream.
I read about Ol' One Eye, the Nessie of Texas, in a travel magazine when I was a kid. He sounded cool. Another thing that was cool; limiting myself to twelve words for this project. That was a great limiting factor.
A tie-in to a videogame I never actually finished. Kinda weird and nonsensical. My old lady cat graced the cover, though, so I still like the project. :-)
My first journaling RPG that wasn't me trying to emulate a specific one I'd seen. Started my love for using dice to randomize a story. The cover was an early AI generation back when that sort of thing was used just for funny memes; the prompt was "Mass Effect 7: The Robot is Romanceable."
My first dabbling in a journaling RPG. Shamelessly modelled after Sweaters by Hedgehog, which is the game you should actually play; that one is SO MUCH BETTER.
The only essay I ever wrote voluntarily. It made for a nice trip down memory lane. But you can't really feel my disdain for that second puzzle. I hated that puzzle so much.
