Wren

Seeking a gaming group

A small amount of experience with DnD (and a lot more experience with a sort of indie TTRPG a few years ago), so looking for more beginner friendly groups. I'm also non-binary so the more inclusive the group the better.

Reg

Seeking a book club

I am a 91-year-olda man. I had a story to tell, and no one to tell it to, therefore I wrote it as a book using an imaginary family. I am a veteran of the Air Force, who was only seven when the www11 began. I came from the Eastend near the docks of London, a poor family and poor education. I learned the hard way from books recovered from bombed-out houses and shops sold them on. There is little more I can say.

Reg recommends:

by RSLawrence | Learn more and buy
Boy from 1930sto1950s
