rpgKids at Gencon

July 27, 2011 by

My ADD sometimes gets the best of me, and this is one of those times… You’d think a guy with a role-playing game for sale would want to do anything possible to promote it at the largest gaming convention… Geez. Anyway, I’d like to see if there’s interest in me running rpgKids at Gencon.  If… [Read more…]

My Gencon Schedule

I’ll be attending my third Gencon this year, and unlike previous years, I’ll be attending solo… If you want to hook up while I’m there, the easiest way to reach me will be through my twitter account, but I’ll be checking email throughout the weekend as well. I found out that as far as today… [Read more…]

Last month marked my third anniversary as a full time DM, and I still enjoy it so much that I haven’t passed the baton to someone else.  It’s actually pretty incredible that I’ve been able to do it for so long without losing much interest (and the same goes for running this blog), as I… [Read more…]

When tiles can’t help me, carefully drawing vinyl maps is a close second in the glee department. I’m a busy DM though, I don’t always… [Read more…]

On August 1st, buy something at a bookstore

July 14, 2011 by

I grew up around books.  Shelves and shelves of them.  My dad is an avid reader, so is my brother.  I have to admit that as a kid, I read a lot less than them, but books were always a part of the scenery.  My wife has a masters degree in reading education, and when… [Read more…]

Okay, back from a wonderful 2 week vacation… but now it’s time to get back to the blog… A year ago I was pleasantly surprised when this blog, and its accompanying podcast, where nominated for a pair of ENnies.  Never in my wildest dreams did I expect to be nominated, and I’d be lying if… [Read more…]
