How Dungeons and Dragons Changed My Life

I don't think I've seen anyone one else post this, so here it goes:

How "Dungeons & Dragons" changed my life (Salon Magazine)

It's an interesting read and I think this article bodes well for the RPG community as a whole.

A quote I liked very much:

Quote:

" [...] And part of the appeal of fantasy in general is this longing for a past that never was. Can you be nostalgic for something you never had?"

Yes. Yes you can.

[Paul Watson]

I got the book he wrote, and that the article seems to be cribbed from, Fantasy Freaks and Gaming Geeks. Its a good read, but a bit apologetic for his love of fantasy. It's definitely written to introduce a normal person to our corner of geekery rather than for those of us who already live there.
