    About Me

      About Me: Gamer mom, started DM'ing in H.S. with AD&D. Gave it up when I got married. Encouraged my oldest to try it when she got invited to a gaming group in H.S. and she fell in love with the game. Her sisters and one of their friends decided they wanted to try it a few years later but couldn't find a DM. (Believe me my oldest had been trying for several years after she left for college and her H.S. group broke up.) I said, "Well, mom can re-learn the game so that y'all can see if y'all like it until y'all find a DM.) They LOVE the game. Like mother, like daughters, (insert seriously proud happy face here). I've remembered how much I LOVE the game, and I'm back to mod. writing which I always loved. Don't understand why people would rather play than DM. And what started out as every intention to join the site to catch up and play online with the dau's away at college (yes, I'm definitely that old) has turned into trolling the site for ideas and chatting with other gamers. (I have really missed the geek speak over the last 20 years.) I'm also very proud of the accomplishments of my fellow gamer geeks. You guys have really done the game proud with all the races, classes, builds, monsters, spells, magic items and tools. I was in the Air Force 6 years after H.S. to pay for college, and now I've been a nurse by profession for 14 years. Married 27yrs next (our anniversary is during GenCon) Aug. He may not play but he keeps getting better looking so I keep him around for his good looks. OK, don't know why you would take the time to read all this boring blather all the way to the end, but that's all folks.

    I ended up writing a whole instructional document on how to play an open format, freestyle campaign through the mail/e-mail/forum. It also had a batch of forms to help players construct their game returns. :-) It will never be used, mind you. I think I might put it up on a website shortly, somewhere like Dragonfoot. Hope you have fun with the dice! I do adore pbm's but they are terribly time consuming. That's the major downside of them.

    How are you? It was a summer of sword fighting for us. As the winter draws in, and the Seattle rains, we shall be resuming some game play around the table. I never did continue the pbm with that guy, he's just a player of his own kind. Best to let him to his own designs perhaps.

    Many thanks Smiles, took the day off work and taking it easy, starting to feel a little more normal (insert your own jokes here lol). Under the Doc's for BP at present, he's just trying to get my tablet dose right, said it may happen :(
