Dead Reckoning was so good! I appreciated seeing Sauron get more work in Hollywood, playing another Dark Lord visualized by a giant eye who can only be destroyed by casting the Ring into the volcano...er, I mean the Key into the Source Code.
I love reading about your D&D love affair. My brother played and I would always insinuate myself in the games (being the younger sibling) and that had mixed-to-terrible-results...for me. Read: There was nothing cool about being cast as a cleric in the 80s versions of these campaigns. ANYWAY...D&D was such a specific part of a certain type of growing up in the 80s--I wonder if you'd consider writing more about it..maybe a memoir in essays kind of format that also delves into the history, culture, and significance of the game? Yes, I did just give you homework! You're welcome. Regarding Night Country: I loved it. I think it maybe needed one more episode in the middle as it sort of rushed to the conclusion, but overall I thought it was one of the more satisfying True Detective pieces. And yes, more Jodi Foster please!!!
😂 and here I thought I was trying everyone's patience with my D&D shenanigans. I have written about D&D a bit before; maybe I'll repost those stories here. Never thought of a D&D book/memoir, so naturally now I can't stop thinking about it.
I'm so excited you played when you were growing up!! Cleric is a deeply unsexy class but absolutely vital. I tend to like playing fighters and dwarfs, and I REALLY love playing rogues because apparently my secret power is scheming, but most often I'm the dungeon master.
I truly think you would have a GEM of a read on your hand if you wrote that. For some of us malls and arcades defined our adolescence, but for others it was the bravely uncool world of D/D that shaped us. You should really, really write it 🤞🏼💥 Given that my older brother was DM in these games AND out to traumatize me as much as possible, I think my Cleric could have been far more badass than she was allowed to be. I have no doubt you are a far more benevolent, though wiley, DM 😉

I didn't make the connection to Sauron! Lol

😅 I'll seriously think about it! 🤣
My objective when running D&D is basically to laugh my ass off, and to ensure everyone else does too. It's nonstop shenanigans.
Doooooo it!!!
I have no doubt your campaigns are epic in every sense of the word! 💥♥️
