As you guessed it has to be Lorraine Williams. No other female employee of TSR had anything like her seniority. What a bitch, huh? There are some people attempting to redeem her reputation out there, I think this just confirms her bad rep. I wouldn't be surprised if Gary was using cocaine in the early 1980s. He was living in Hollywood (renting King Vidor's mansion) and hanging out with Hollywood types. The SPI buyout was dodgy as fuck, mainly due to TSR not honoring lifetime subs to the SPI house magazine. TSR had a very poor reputation by then anyway, (T)hey (S)ue (R)egularly being often said. They also fucked over their British magazine Imagine staff, allegedly to save costs. She mentions him answering letters from prison as if that makes him out to be a bad person. To me that's just a 1960s hippy lefty sort of person who believes in rehabilitation. She's like those people who informed on people in Nazi Germany or East Germany, volunteering 'dirt' on Gygax such as, horror of horrors, he is a member of the Libertarian Party. Also volunteers that anti Vietnam war sorts might be the bomber. As I say, what a bitch!Norvik_1602https://www.blogger.com/profile/05288679603818829334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560143148581212281.post-15900156448333094472018-03-14T18:17:30.233-05:002018-03-14T18:17:30.233-05:00I didn't know that Gygax was that cool... I al...I didn't know that Gygax was that cool... I always thought that because D&D is rather a bad game, because of its heroic convention (despite its all merits to the history of RPG) he had to be rather ordinary guy... As I see - I was HORRIBLY mistaken. rest He in peace.kraksynludolihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03354486945093628723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560143148581212281.post-7591944253730381752017-06-15T18:41:27.344-05:002017-06-15T18:41:27.344-05:00My hat off to you.
