This article explores how the writing concept of "blanks" can enhance RPGs. For example, in sci-fi writing, describing a futuristic gun may prompt readers to critique its realism. But adding a word like "modified" creates a blank space in the reader’s mind, encouraging them to imagine how it works instead of picking it apart—boosting both engagement and immersion by letting the audience fill in details themselves.

Assigning player roles in tabletop role-playing games.
@slyflourish discusses the benefits of assigning roles such as scribe, cartographer, quartermaster, and caller.
The scribe takes notes for the game, the cartographer draws maps, the quartermaster keeps track of loot, and the caller adjudicates group choices.
These roles help players stay engaged, keep the game organized, and create a lasting record of the campaign.
You get a choice of how and where you invest yourself in this hobby. As Mike Shae from #SlyFlourish wisely points out all the time, 5E is bigger than D&D. It's an entire ecosystem of games, publishers, homebrewers, and creators.
WotC only has a monopoly on it because we let it.

Curse him and his affable charm. ;)
Mike Shea's (@slyflourish) crowdfunding for his City of Arches system-neutral sourcebook is off to a great start.
I really like his Lazy RPG Talk Show and expect this book will be useful for building fantasy city-based campaigns.
