Roleplay Rescue show

Summary: <p>Brian Jamison’s “Gamemastering”, self-published in 2011, has had a major impact on me over the years. Initially, the book intrigued me and I tried to take the advice to heart. Doing so, I quickly ran into some genuine resistance from fellow gamers. This past week or so, I began to re-read it and re-visit it. It seems I am still niggled by the style and tone but I am also trying to mine the book for useful methodology. It’s really the first and only book on methodology that I have found useful thus far.</p> <p>Brian Jamison's "Gamemastering": <a href="http://www.gamemastering.info/">gamemastering.info</a></p> <p><em>Roleplay Rescue Theme Song</em> and incidental music by TJ Drennon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/TJD/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">patreon.com/TJD</a></p> <p><em>RPR Jingle No. 5</em> by John from Tale of the Manticore: <a href="https://taleofthemanticore.blogspot.com/">taleofthemanticore.blogspot.com</a></p> <p>Thanks to Lee, John, Jason, and Spencer for the call-ins.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Contact Details:</strong></p> <p>Voice Message: <a href="https://anchor.fm/rpgrescue/message" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">anchor.fm/rpgrescue/message</a></p> <p>Email: <a href="mailto:hello@rpgrescue.com" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">hello@rpgrescue.com</a></p> <p>Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/rpgrescue" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">patreon.com/rpgrescue</a></p> <p>Blog: <a href="https://roleplayrescue.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">roleplayrescue.com</a></p> <p>MeWe Group: <a href="https://mewe.com/join/roleplayrescue" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">mewe.com/join/roleplayrescue</a> (or search "Roleplay Rescue")</p> <p>Facebook Page: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/roleplayrescue/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">facebook.com/roleplayrescue</a> (or search "Roleplay Rescue")</p> <p>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/ubiquitousrat" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ubiquitousrat</a></p>
