This post is part of a series where I explore freeform roleplaying as a bedtime story for my 6 year old son, Nico. Chatty: So what do you want me to read tonight? Nico: Can we play the story game again? It’s been a long time and I’m sure your friends on the computer miss […]
Chatty’s Bedtime Campaign: Nico’s Party!
This is the last part of Nico’s Quest, an interactive bedtime story game I started with him my 6 year old son Nicolas in the last week. I also just bought a digital recorder to better capture the story and write it later since my blogging schedule is starting to get crowded! Chatty: “So what […]

Since I actually posted today’s article yesterday morning, here’s a very short something about my non-RPG interests. Like a lot of tabletop RPG aficionados, I like geeky stuff. My favorites are about technology, vintage video games, movies, cool TV series and doing stuff with kids. So far my blog list for those is rather limited. […]
Wii Weeee!!… I finally got one…
