So, I've been away for a while. In fact, since my son was born two years ago, I just haven't played D&D much. But, ya know, I've recently drifted back. Since I never let my subscription lapse -- I've been distracted, not crazy -- I decided to see what's going on. So, I picked up and read Issue 132 completely. A lot of good stuff in there. And I got a really strong nostalgic feeling. I really, really miss D&D. I guess until that moment, I didn't realize just how much.

So, I'm stoked. I'm seriously thinking about trying to get published here again. It ought to be loads of fun and I have a bunch of ideas all ready to pursue. But before I really get going, I thought I'd drop in here and see what the community is up to. And while I'm here, I thought I'd ask a quick question -- namely, do any of you guys remember any of my previous stuff, and if so, did you like it? If so, I'd love to hear any stories you might have concerning the adventures. Nothing tickles me more than hearing that someone really enjoyed my work. Oddly, aside from my brother -- who has run most of them -- I've heard very little in this regards.

And just to jog the memory, here's my Dungeon credits: "Wild in the Streets," "Priestly Secrets," "To Walk Beneath the Waves," and "Valley of the Snails."

Okay, sorry for the self-serving post. Hopefully you'll all forgive my little indulgence.

Off to see what else is going on in here.

Okay, question for the editors. I've got an article concerning a group of inter-linked (background-wise) new magic items that I'd like to submit, but I'm not sure to which magazine to do it. The problem is that these new magic items are rather sinister in nature and are probably better suited to NPC villains and the like as DM story tools than they are for PCs. Combing through the new guidelines to both Dragon and Dungeon, it certainly seems that the magic item articles in Dragon are meant primarily for PCs and there doesn't seem to be a really good fit for the listed ones for Dungeon. Is there a way I can propose this article to one of the magazines? If so, which one?

Any help in this regards is much appreciated.
