Viewing Profile: John Lewis
About John LewisMy name is John Lewis and I’ve been roleplaying for quite awhile, since the early 80’s anyway and virtually all of that time has been as a game master. This is my first shot at blogging but I’m really looking forward to sharing some thoughts and ideas about the hobby.
In the coming months I will be blogging about game mechanical design and theory, campaign construction, adventure creation, roleplaying tips and techniques, and of course the occasional rant about the things that drive me nuts about gaming and gamers. Myself included!
