By day, I’m a mild-mannered IT Manager with a slight attitude. By night I play guitar & celtic bouzouki, board games, watch British TV, and read. My agented but unsold humorous, middle-grade Steampunk Fantasy novel “The Pterrible Pteranodon” is available as a free serialized podcast from my PowersBeyondTheirSteam website.
For me, gaming is primarily about creating social memories and being presented with lots of interesting choices. I love abstracts, co-ops, and heavier Eurogames.
And despite being a DM, I have an inherent dislike of six-sided dice.
