Once upon a time, in a far off galaxy....
I used to play an online multi player game called Everquest (or Evercrack as the addicts knew it). I spent a couple of years adventuring in this world, slaying monsters, making friends, winning magical items.
Then one day I realised that while I'd been off adventuring I'd let my other life fall apart. So I turned my back on Everquest and set about working out how to live on planet earth.
The other day I got back in contact, via email, with someone I used to adventure with. A handsome slightly more experienced bard (I was a woodelf of course). It was lovely catching up on lives (real ones that is) via an email and strange how long ago it all felt - part of a different life. Staying up till all hours of the night just to explore another dungeon, win a little more experience. ..
Perhaps that's why I write speculative fiction, I'm still exploring other worlds.

For a single intelligent observation of the psychic life of a neurotic, a single analysis of a dream must force upon him the unalterable conviction that the most complicated and correct mental operations, to which no one will refuse the name of psychic occurrences, may effexor take place without exciting the consciousness of the person.. , were carefully pruned down about one-half, cialis in order to eliminate the sectional and class prejudice with which the book was dyed from end to end, he might consider its publication.. The suppressed psychic material, which in the waking state has been prevented from expression and cut off from internal perception by the antagonistic adjustment of the contradictions , finds ways and oxycodone means of obtruding itself on consciousness during the night under the domination of the compromise formations...
I'm sure you played the game because you love genre, not the other way around.
I'm glad you're still writing SF/F!
