So I have found myself a traveler among many worlds. Each time I have picked up a book, or read an article, or gazed upon a piece of art, or even listening to music. These travels have been enjoyable but for the most part impersonal. Role playing has enabled me to be the active first person participant in numerous adventure and stories.
Over the past 30 years I have been able to be a part of many such adventures. Early ventures had been at the table top and now take place upon the screen as stories flow through the internet. I have been involved in mostly fantasy and have recently joined science fiction, horror, and even ventured into creating my own worlds.

As I mentioned in my Introduction Post, I have been playing mostly Table Top Role-playing Games for the last 30 years. Recently, within the last 5 years, I got introduced and invited to join several Play By Post Role-Playing Games.
I love to create characters, immerse them in a new setting, and then watch them become part of the world and the stories of those worlds.
My Play By Post game participations include some of the following:
2E Dungeons & Dragons
Advance Dungeons & Dragons
3.5 Dungeons & Dragons
Pathfinder
Gurps
Mutants and Masterminds
Saga Star Wars
And a couple of Homebrewed Role-playing Game Systems.
I am looking forward to getting into the text and spirit of things here. Look forward to conversing and enjoying myself real soon.
JB,
(I missed the first line of your post. Yes, email notifications are coming through just fine, thanks. 9:55 am MST).
In regards to a potential Star Wars Text Role-playing Game. I believe that is very doable. From a Tabletop Experience, I have found that the Fantasy Flight Games Star Wars has a very solid story telling mechanic that is the basic structure of their Role-playing Game. It is less hack and slash and more about the players' role in a much bigger story.
As to me GMing, I think maybe its about time I take that seriously. I have been a player for so long that it is time to give someone else a chance to play.
