Jake

Seeking a gaming group

Hey, I am 33 dad and getting back in DnD. I’m looking to play regularly and wondering what’s out there in terms of groups. I prefer rule of cool, RP heavy I could do in person but online would be ideal, I also like the idea of theatre if imagination rather than using VTTs and roll20 but not against them. Open to a long term campaign or a series one shorts.

Clarabel 2607

Seeking a book club

I am in my mid 50’s. I have just given up full time work and I am loving the extra free time. Amongst other things I am getting a chance to read more. I love reading, iI can completely lose myself in a book and cannot imagine not having something to read. I love most genres, fiction is my preference but I do like historical non fiction and a good autobiography. I would love to join a book club where I can meet other book lovers and have a good chat about books.

Beautifully describes the landscape, the heat, the emotions experienced by the protagonists and the tension. Keeps you engaged from the first page to the last

Hilary

Seeking a book club

I read mainly by author when I've enjoyed more than two of their books ie McEwan, Julian Barnes. I would enjoy a book club or reading group as an alternative method of deciding on my next read. Also, a lively discussion about the book / author would be a pleasure too.
