He loves writing worlds more than characters.

The reason got sucked aside from dnd is he wrote himself in a corner. “Mereneese knot” forget where I heard that describes this issue of getting all the characters together and across the sea in a way that made sense.

It couldn’t, then all the hype and everything else and fuck all I wouldn’t want to write it either.

He captured lightning in a bottle for a short period then it grew beyond control.
