A prayer for a PM
I’ve been away from regular net access for a few days, so it’s taken me a while to have a moment to post this here. Some of you might know that Dave Szulborski is ill. It’s serious. He could definitely use some well wishes, prayers, and spirit lifting. If you have a free moment, please make him a crane, or email me with your wish and I’ll make one for you.
If it weren’t for Dave, I wouldn’t be in the position I am now, able to get paid to do that which I love: making ARGs. He loves to take new, enthusiastic converts to the ARG world and put them to work behind the scenes on a game. He asked me back in 2004 if I would be interested in working on a grassroots game called Dread House (a.k.a Urban Hunt), and the rest is history. He also wrote a letter of recommendation for me when I returned to college. He’s not only a pioneer in the world of alternate reality games, but he’s one of the sweetest, gentlest, kindest, funniest, and diabolically brilliant people to walk the face of the earth. If I sound like I’m fiercely devoted to him, it’s because I am. He’s been through a LOT in the last several years and deserves to have some peace and happiness with his new wife and beautiful baby boy.
God bless you, Dave, and bring you health.
