I first played the D&D basic back in high school. I fell in love with the adventure of the game. But something must have stuck because I'm a full time writer with three science fiction novels under my belt. A few years back I dusted off the wizards hat and went back to GMing for my family. We started in Pathfinder but made the switch to 5e. I began professionally DMing on Roll20 three years ago, and I love it. At it's best, I see D&D as a cooperative storytelling exercise and I love to bring that to my games.
