Today's Topic Worldbuilder has lost its meaning.

Maybe I should stop looking through worldbuilding sites online. I see so many people get stuck on worldbuilding. More to the point, I see people who call themselves worldbuilders get stuck on what it means to make your world realistic. 

I personally have had it. I cannot consider myself a worldbuilder any more. I create fictional fantasy settings. Join a shocked Michael as the talks to Jeff giving up on the worldbuilder moniker.

So in my recent illness, he downloaded and played Lord of the Rings Online played for the first time since 2012.  The game is old and not perfect, however, I had so much fun my wife downloaded the game and we played together. The experience got me thinking, there are certain games that stick in our minds years after we stop playing them. I really wanted to think about what are the features of those games that make them live on in our hearts.

Join Michael and me as we look at the features of the games we love.

Today's Topic Here are simple hacks I use to get the most out of my time

One of the major issues I hear from worldbuilders is that they do not know how to get the time.  However, often time they have no idea even how much time they have to work creatively each week
