About me
I've been GMing for awhile, maybe 2-ish decades? I'm not exactly sure on the math but I got my start when I saw the ItsmeJP youtube channel host Swan Song and learned that Roll20 existed. I'd always enjoyed forum play-by-post RPing but gaming in person was beyond my ability due to nobody in the small town in northern Minnesota where I lived being interested. I moved from system to system and slowly learned how much I enjoyed GMing and I've been doing it ever since.
