Hi. I’m Samuel Rondón, and I started Ludic Pen years ago as a small creative project that grew thanks to the people who believed in it and helped shape it along the way.

Today, due to the current situation in Venezuela, I want to let you know that I am alive and safe for the moment, as is Samuel Emilio Castillo, a Venezuelan writer and icon designer who is a member of the Ludic Pen team; his work and voice are deeply embedded in many of our products. We’re both currently living in Venezuela, and while the situation remains uncertain, we’re holding on.

Because of this, we’ve decided to reduce the prices of several of our products, both in their digital and printed formats. Additionally, we’re joining the New Year Sale by offering a 20% discount on Ancient Wonders, our most wishlisted title, as it celebrates its anniversary. This isn’t about asking for donations or free help. It’s simply a way for those who want to support our Venezuelans work partners while still receiving something meaningful in return — our supplements, materials, and creative work. Your purchase helps keep this publisher going during a hard time.

 Thank you for reading, for your support, and for being part of Ludic Pen in any way. It truly means a lot to us.

With gratitude,

Samuel Rondón Acevedo
