I just watched Possum - a deeply creepy Norfolk-based horror.

I think ot was Dragonlance that valued Steel pieces over GP.

How many GPs worth? 50000 - all in ingots, smelted by dragonflame, each 1000gp. Orthopaedic mattress or futon for Dragons.

While I think about - wealth. What if a dragon collects sculptures or knowledge. "It belongs in a museum!". If a dragon (or any NPC) has magic items they'll use them. Too many GMs forget this - wands and staves even rings can be altered to fit...

I do like the idea in the D&D movie where someone asks if the Red Dragon ate his old lair... After eating a gnome city, you need a few hundred years to digest, plus you can shape change if you need to get out...

It's also easy to forget that time and energy are major considerations for part-time. Deadlines mean a date for completion. Finish a project early and you've a chance to polish it or submit ahead of time. Take on too much and you'll burn out. Don't expect to write a 128-page book in a week!

As a freelance RPG writer, I'm part-time. I could go looking for more work, but I'd feel guilty. There are so many talented freelancers out there making stuff or looking for work.

Decided to try out a Visible monitoring band. Hopefully it'll help give me an idea of my "Energy envelope" and reduce chances of a crash.

This has been a truly lousy week. Not looking forward to going back to the day job on Monday. Not sleeping well despite ME and attempted rest.

A few decent low-budget British Horror movies I've seen recently: Beliath, How to Kill Monsters (comedy too, also got some great lines), and Alien Outbreak... (latter definitely reminds me of Grabbers).
