Announcing our first GM Clinic!

Come Join GnomeStew.com's Patrick Benson in a discussion of the finer points of managing the flow of the game... from combat to the spaces inbetween, how you keep your players at the table instead of getting up for a snack. Of course, there are always times for snacks too. That's why I'm bringing a case of the new Dungeons & Dragons Soda along...

We're gearing this one more towards intermediate level GMs, but people just starting out are welcome to come learn and people with experience are encouraged to offer their advice!

Podcasters and Bloggers welcome!
