In this special episode of Dice and Quills, I sit down with my long-time player Todd — the first person who ever joined one of my games, and someone who’s been with me from casual kitchen table sessions to full-time professional GMing.
We talk about how the games evolved over the years, what it’s like to be a player in multiple campaigns, how feedback and trust shape better storytelling, and what keeps players coming back to the table week after week. Todd also shares some favorite memories, unexpected turns, and honest insights about what makes a session shine (or stall).
Whether you're a GM looking to understand your players better or a player curious about the view from the other side of the screen, this episode offers real, grounded reflections from years of shared storytelling.
