I live in Greensboro, North Carolina. There, I teach English (mainly composition and Shakespeare) at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I moonlight as a dungeon master who currently runs two campaigns in the same world. Every weekend, I perform improv comedy at a professional improv club in downtown Greensboro.

A Long Time Frothing: Writing and Emotional Responsibility for a DM

Brace yourselves.  I’ve got quite a bit to say, and most of it is rambling and smacks of “back in my day, we didn’t have feelings!”  Also: end-notes.  When you see this symbol (*), scroll to the bottom for some addendum that is neither funny nor pertinent. So it’s been a hot minute.  And I only

The Pixelated Geek Staff Remembers our Favorite Blue Hedgehog!

We’re so excited, we could curl up into a little ball and spin like a razor through the green hills and bucolic countryside.  Or maybe we’ll take a speedy trip through a carnivalesque Vegas.  Or maybe we’ll get so frenzied we’ll attack an evil, ginger scientist bent on destroying the world with his egg ship.
