So, it was Spring 2007, and I was having the worst few months of my life. I mean, I had a great job doing sketches for a small furniture design studio in San Juan Capistrano (which unfortunately left me a creative desert after what were often very long hours). My wife and I had recently been inflicted with a profound loss to our little family, and I needed to feel sane again - inspired again. I toyed with World of Warcraft for a few months, playing around with local pals, doing the repetitive quests over and over... but it was the huge time sink I knew it would be. Then, one day, I find a story on Boing Boing on these kids who had put together a cable access D&D show in order to stave off the same doldrums. I was in.
