Welcome to the wonderful world of Blogging!
I shall link to your site as soon as I do a linky love post later this week!
Egads, this means I can't pawn your post on my blog... I actually have to write something!
:) No biggie, I'm sure I'll find something!
Hey, if you ever do need a ghost writer then let me know, I'd be more then happy too. The way I see it, I owe you one.
Thanks, I might hold you up to that one day.
Hey you already had a comment on your villain post, congrats... I'm not sure you'll thank me for the anxiety of waiting for the next comment!
:)
Of course the 'net can support another DMing blog. It's not like any of us are paying the bills with these. ;)
Welcome to the wonderful world of blogging. I also play a lot of 2nd edition AD&D, so I'll be looking forward to seeing what you have to share.
