Dear #TTRPG #RPG folks, I'm seriously considering getting back into GM'ing at some point. Problem is, it's been 3 decades and my standard has changed more than my personality over that span. I want to approach this with as much theory as creativity.
I am also simply in need of a theoretical deep dive.
I would like to hear your suggestions of books (edit: print much preferred) that can help me get into good #GM'ing and #storytelling please!
Erik
