Blogging was all the rage and jumping into 4E DnD certainly got me excited enough to share my experience. I had stopped playing RPGs for a long while. I drifted to board games and miniature wargames over the years in college (something I still play pretty regularly today). So a new edition of the RPG that got me into the hobby in the early 80s was certainly something to spark that interest again.

It seems that the gaming social media environment has moved on though. I’ve particularly noticed that podcasts and videos are what really captures folks. Gaming blogs of the written word are sort of old fashioned. I’m certainly one following the trend, as I just don’t seem to scroll through my blog feeds as much.

Where does that leave me? Likely not blogging much at all. For the past year it’s been pretty much on autopilot. I’ve enjoyed throwing together Saturday Gaming Spark, an inspirational image with some accompanying text to offer ideas of an adventure or fluff to fill out a GM’s world. That’s pretty much what’s been the content I’ve been regularly putting out.

The blog will still be around. I will once in a blue moon post something. But I expect that this blog will go silent for long spurts. It’s been fun. Time to think about other stuff to throw my creative efforts into.
