For the 1d4-1 people who may be wondering why I haven't been posting to my blog in so long, well, it's because all of my spare time and energy has been poured into my Dungeons & Dragons campaign website:
The Adventures of the Sword Coast Drifters
Since last fall, I've been playing the fifth edition of the venerable role-playing game, and it has rekindled my passion for all things D&D.
I haven't really acted as a Dungeon Master in more than ten years. So my group started with the introductory adventure that comes with the D&D 5e Basic Set. It turned out to be a modern classic! We just transitioned into Storm King's Thunder, and it looks to be another terrific adventure.
Being the game's referee can be a big time commitment all by itself, but I've added a whole new dimension to the DM's chore: after each session, I write the story of what happened. I've tried to write these like episodes of a show or chapters in novella, rather than merely mechanical summaries of the game. It's a time-consuming challenge, but I've been enjoying it immensely! A worthy respite from the horrible things that are happening in the world. Check it out if you have time to kill.
