Observations of the Fox

In my last post, I mentioned that I've started a tabletop gaming club at my school. I've thought about doing it at the last two schools I was posted at, and decided this time I'd just do it. There was nothing much here for those students who aren't sport inclined, so the take-up was instant. 25 kids wanting to game... all wanting to play D&D. A third of whom are girls, and probably half of whom are on the spectrum to some level (where a quarter have issues complex enough that require them being in special education classes). I've run games wth 6 to 8 players no problems, I've done 10 to 12 at a pinch, often with sub-GMs... but 25 newbies. Nope. I don't want to give them the wrong impression of what gaming can be. At first I was thinking that we should play boardgames, and run single sessions with an RPG of some type. However, a half hour lunchbreak isn't enough time to really get much of anything happening. So I'm working on a few new odeas, one ...

This shift in my life has really meant I haven't had much tme to check in on the blog for the past 2 years. I tried getting something started again in October last year, but that didn't really work out for me beyond a couple of posts. This year I've settled into the town of Tamworth, where I've established a tabletop gamng club at the hgh school where I teach... then COVID lockdown hit. Hence the opportunity to finally look at the blog and see what's been happening here. I don't know what happened at the end of July, but something spiked my views at that time.  In other news, I've been putting together some new game concepts, refining a few backburner projects, and developing a new comic. Hopefully one of those projects will stick.
