What is my favorite place in the world?
God. Uh. Hmm.
I want to toss some far-flung locales on here, but I haven't been there in over twenty years and God only knows if they're still nice, so. I guess we'll go with the places I have known well and loved.
It's a toss-up between:
The Salt Lake City Public Library, at least as I remember it circa 2010 (which, God, was a long time ago...!) — I went to a bunch of poetry readings etc here and always loved it and felt very in my element whenever I was there, and the rooftop garden is super neat.
Cape Perpetua, because it's fucking beautiful.
Swan Lake, Montana, because I spent just about every childhood here from the time I was 4 to the time I was 14.
Mesa Verde, because it's just fucking cool.
SF MoMA, because I adore it and have a lot of great memories of visiting different exhibits there (for several years in a row I had business stuff that took me to San Francisco at least once if not twice a year, and I always hit up SF MoMA when I went).
Anyway yes, I am Indecisive, you are welcome :D |

A favorite or hilarious story from the TTRPG table?
Oh, God, there are so many little moments that are burned into my brain, but I think the one I have to talk about is the Desk Goat.
( Beneath the jump. )
I will say that the other "favorite" moments I have are all ones that had pretty serious story consequences, etc, and so aren't particularly funny (or easy to explain). Think along the lines of deciding to redeem villains, challenging certain narrative assumptions about where stuff was going (and forcing me to pivot on a dime, ha), etc.
Technically, the players becoming attached to and deciding to redeem one specific villain is what led to the weird poly romance novel I (mostly) wrote last year, but...yeah.
(I say "mostly" because ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png) shadaras was there the entire time and most of the worldbuilding etc was stuff done in tandem as, wouldn't it be fun if..., so though the prose is like 95% mine, the story is definitely a collaborative effort.) |
