Ding! The Stew is Ready. Hope You Like Gnomes.

May 12, 2008 by The Chatty DM

Have a look at the newest GM-focused blog.

It’s Gnome Stew and it just launched.

I really liked the Short Sessions: How to Cope by Walt Icantspellhislastnamejustnow as it plays directly in our gaming challenges.

I wish a great big welcome to the GnomeGMs:

  • Martin Ralya
  • John Arcadian (yay!)
  • Patrick Benson
  • Walt Ciechanowski (I was just kidding, no I’m not I can’t spell that)
  • DNAPhil (Yay squared!)
  • Scott Martin
  • Adam Nave
  • Matthew J. Neagley
  • Kurt ‘Telas’ Schneider
  • Troy E. Taylor

Looking forward to read more of your stuff guys, Thanks for the early link love and good luck.

    You know, I have the second shortest last name on that list, and somehow you managed to make TWO mistakes in spelling it… ๐Ÿ˜›

    Seriously, though, thank you for the post and for taking the time to link up each our posts individually. You rock, Chatty!

    Sorry man.. corrected.

    Long life to the Stew.

    Nice to see the Treasure Tables crew back in a new form. I now have another site vying for my limited time. I promise to always read you first though, Chatty! ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Deadshots last blog post..What are you playing tonight?

    Thanks for the vote of confidence Deadshot, I’ll try to make you want to come here 1st, you don’t have to promise anything ๐Ÿ™‚

    You’ve got it vying for your time! I have to write a post for it every so often, and all I want to do is read other peoples posts because they are so much better! I barely have time to read Chatty’s site, and it is far and away one of my favorite gaming sites!

    Thanks John, I really appreciate.

    I offered my services as a guest poster for Gnome Stew… so I may drop in a few ingredients in the pot sometime in the future.

    It is Ciechanowski. I can spell it any time, and even say it correctly, any time.
    I believe it is a Polish surename.
    I am Polish ๐Ÿ™‚

    I’ll learn it… he more than deserves it.

    Cie-chan-owski. There broken up in three parts I can grok! Much easier!

    Anyway, I screwed up Martin’s name and it’s like 5 letters long… I’m hopeless!
