I mean...hmmm...I'm old as dust, so this could take a while...

But if I stick to worldbuilding, and gaming, I started playing D&D in 1978, and started DMing regularly in '84. I became the 'perma DM' somewhere around '86 or '87 lol

I had always been fascinated by the level of detail that went into creating Eberron for instance, and started making my own setting. I have built upon that ever since. Once my kids were born (1st one in '02) I felt the need to document it for some reason. I do not think it's something they will ever be interested in, not like that, more like I wanted to be able to tell them some grand, developing story as they got older. Its beginnings are written in somewhere around 30 notebooks that I have stashed somewhere around here.

Since then, I developed brain damage, and had to leave work in 2014, due to undiagnosed Lyme disease, and memory became a huge issue. I discovered WorlAnvil and it's SQL database, and Tellus has just really blossomed because of it. But what has really sent it into overdrive, for me, are the players I have recently found! My Discord server is full of genuinely good and nice people, and I find myself constantly looking forward to writing out and mapping new areas for them to explore. And new and different ways to fuck with their heads in-game, story-wise, so to speak.

I also find it fucking hilarious that I'm doing funny voices in front of professional VO actors, yet here we are hahahaha
