  • What’s on my Laptop

    Monday I talked about my GM kit and contents thereof, and I mentioned my laptop as the second part of my game mastering load out. Ever since my friend David (Hi, David!) gave me this laptop, I have been adding, tweaking and expanding its potential for tabletop use. And while I can still GM without…

  • My Game Master Kit

    I’ve had a few folks ask me, here and at Gen Con, what I carry with me to GM. So I thought I’d give you a virtual tour of my GM kit. First thing to note, I don’t always carry this full kit with me to every session. What I take depends on the game…

  • Nerding Up the Weekend!

    I hope those of you not attending PAX and Dragon*Con are still finding a way to nerd up your weekend. Me? Tonight I’m getting together with some friends to read aloud William Shakespeare’s Star Wars, by Ian Doescher. If you haven’t read it yet, I urge you to get on it. It is just as…

  • Super Late Gen Con Wrap Up!

    I think the title says it all, really. Three and a half days home on a bus combined with multi-stage con crud equals me not posting about Gen Con until a week later. Since you’ve likely heard all the reviews already, I’m just going to hit my high (and low) points of the world’s biggest…

  • Humpday Links for June 26

    As our nation’s birthday approaches (Oh, Canada! What do you get for the country that has everything?) we say goodbye to the links of June, and welcome the warmer and hopefully drier links of July. If I don’t get a chance to share a Timmie’s and a brew with you on the day, Happy Canada…

  • Humpday Links for May 29

    I’m going against all tradition and declaring June the start of summer.  That allows me to justify calling this the last Humpday Link of spring!  …well it was important to me, anyway. Your Humpday Links! – If this discovery is actually true, there are some pretty serious implications. Mammoth farming, anyone? – Gamers, if you’ve…

  • Find Your Work a Home

    Late, short and sweet, that’s the story of today’s post.  Busied myself most of the day with writing of one kind or another, none of which was a blog entry.  But since I sailed right through Monday with nary a whisper I thought I’d at least take a break between my writing and editing to…

  • Gencon Day Three: Hug your Volunteers!

    Day Three was a blur as well, but for an awful instead of awesome reason.  Food poisoning, when you are safe in the comforts of your home, is bad.  The experience is not made better by living out of hotel in a strange city.  So I’m not going to dwell too much on what my…

  • Gencon Day Two, Continued

    The highlight of Day Two was, of course, the Pathfinder Society Gencon Special.  My introduction to Pathfinder Society came through playing in the Gencon Special back in 2010, so I was excited to be a part of the GM team this time around. I won’t talk a lot about the story of the Special, because…

  • Year of the Con: Gencon

    Let’s assume I’ve made the standard excuses for a long blog absence, and you have decided to forgive me or not.  Stuff that happened during that absence will end up on the blog eventually but it is not part of today’s subject.  Because today’s subject is… Gencon! I made it back this year, against some…
