So what’s this all about? I’ve resolved to spend a year traveling around the world, meeting my fellow gamers and telling stories in exchange for hospitality. I’m trying to visit as many different countries as I can. As a writer, I’m interested in meeting interesting people and seeing or doing things that may provide inspiration for future stories. As a gamer, I want to see how the hobby has spread around the world and to hear your stories. I want to share one of my games with you and see how it turns out with your players. So if you’re interested in having an unusual...

I’m always interested in adding additional stops to my world tour. Here’s the list of the places I’ve currently been invited to. If you’re from a state or country not on this list (or just consider your home city to be irresistably fascinating) and are willing to put up a wandering DM for a few nights in exchange for an Eberron game, let me know; you can find more information in the Getting Involved post in the About The Journey section. FUTURE STOPS UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois,...

I’ve left Sweden, and settled in at my home for the next week here in Germany. Unfortunately, I’m going to be spending this week hammering away on my current Thorn of Breland novel. As a result, I’m not going to be able to meet up with the various people who have extended invitations to me in Germany, and I also won’t have much time to fill in the blanks on my blog. But I do plan to get to both as soon as I can! I’m also hoping to get some gaming articles up, or at least collect a few of my longer posts from other sites. So, it may be quiet for the next few days, but...

I’ve been traveling for about three months now. I’ve met fascinating people and seen amazing things. Unfortunately, between my breakneck pace and the fact that I’m trying to work on a novel while traveling, I don’t have too much time for blogging. I’ve already filled an entire notebook, and I’ve nearly run out of space on my hard drive with all the pictures I’ve been taking. I certainly intend to tell some of those past stories as time permits. At the moment, it’s late; I’m heading to Germany tomorrow; and I need to be thinking about that novel....

I’m a storyteller. I write novels and create games, and what I enjoy most about tabletop roleplaying is the sense of evolutionary storytelling – that even though I’ve written the script for the piece, I don’t know exactly where it’s going to go, or what surprises the plaeyrs will come up with. In 2002 my proposal was chosen in the Fantasy Setting Search, ultimately becoming the world of Eberron. Today, there are people playing in Eberron across the world. At the start of this year, I wondered if it would be possible to meet some of them – to be a bard of the...
