[QUOTE="Acquana, post: 2604686, member: 1616"] [b]Ah, the march of time ...[/b] Honestly the thing to remember is what made you specifically feel good about the gaming. If the gaming, the rules, the dice, aren't what turned you on ... maybe it was the storytelling. Start reading, and start writing! Maybe it was the social interaction with your friends. Make excuses for your friends to come over, become the party host! Maybe it was the genre. Start reading into old mythology, folktales, and pulp fantasy! The important thing is knowing what it was that you really liked about the game, if it wasn't the game itself. Myself, I love, love, love storytelling in all forms. I acted through middle school, I'm working on my own comics, I write in my spare time, and I can do just about all those with roleplaying. In my own games we have very little combat, it's almost entirely about character. And that's what we love. If the game isn't bringing you joy, just find something tangental that you really love. There's so much in this world! I really enjoyed meeting you and your wife at the GenCon that I went to, so I wanna know that where ever you are, you're still cheerful and having fun! Let us know how things are going now and again! After all, it's not like this place isn't named after you! :p [/QUOTE]
