A blast from the past

Occasionally, I find myself missing Dungeons and Dragons.

Apparently, I’m not the only one.

Who knew?

I, too, have a dusty case full of D&D manuals, old dice, and pages and pages of campaign material. My group at university scorned pre-published scenarios; we made up everything from whole cloth.

Alas, my D&Ding died away when I left university and had no one to play with. Also, I realized that the effort I put into creating my D&D world should better be spent on creating worlds for my novels.

Although I did “re-purpose” the D&D world I’d created as the setting for my YA fantasy The Dark Unicorn.

I’m glad to hear the old game is still going, and getting better. Maybe someday I can teach my daughter to play.
