Game Day
The web log post is late because today was Game Day. Sitting around a table, laughing, rolling dice. It’s been several months since I last had a chance to play. I enjoyed getting back into it for a few hours.
Did I learn anything applicable to writing, practice any storytelling skills? No, of course not. I was playing a game, exploring a dungeon, fighting monsters. With respect to playing the game I learned, or had earlier lessons reinforced, that first level thieves are easily broken. Rolling up a new character requires mere minutes — another piece of knowledge reinforced by practical application.
So, yes, the post is late. It doesn’t trouble me much. Recreation is important. I believe the expression “sorry, not sorry” is appropriate. I will return next week with somewhat lengthier fare.
