A big hand to everyone who participated in the first #RPGaDAY blogathon, and to Dave Chapman for coming up with and promulgating the idea.
#RPGaDAY represents the single most sustained run of writing and posting I’ve ever pulled off. My regular schedule for Held Action runs Monday, Wednesday, Friday, which makes it easy to queue up posts. So while I could apply the same workflow to #RPGaDAY, the volume was more demanding. The usual stream of posts wound up taking a backseat to the #RPGaDAY topics about halfway through the month when my buffer ran low. Still, I was satisfied in meeting the challenge. And I even helped spur my friend Geoff to take blogging back up for the month, so that’s very cool, too.
To sum up the month’s writing, I’ve collected all my #RPGaDAY posts here for your delectation. If you missed a day, you’ll find it below. And for at least one topic, I have to go back and add an honorable mention that really deserves to be the pride of first place.
Here’s to the second annual #RPGaDAY next August!
