1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 I had stumbled across Becca's Threads account, WomenPlayDND, awhile back. I loved what she was doing with getting new players into Dungeons and Dragons and breaking people out of the rule book and getting them to the table. It was a pleasure having her join me on the podcast to talk about this, and more! &amp;nbsp; We start things off by talking about the Romantasy book genre. We talk about some of her early reads, and what draws her to the Romantasy genre. Becca also talks about how characters are portrayed, storylines, and more. I recommended previous guest, Gabriella Buba's &quot;Saints of Storm and Sorrow&quot;, and we even had a non-Romantasy book mentioned that I grew up with (Redwall, by Brian Jacques) &amp;nbsp; Then we get into, you guessed it, Dungeons and Dragons. Becca talks about her early experiences getting into D&amp;amp;D, along with what kept her from the table and enjoying the game. She talks about how she found inspiration online, to then finding groups that worked for her and her play style, along with characters that she plays. We also talk about some of the past issues with D&amp;amp;D, the barriers and gatekeeping of getting into the game, and how she's worked on a system to teach others D&amp;amp;D and helping to make it more accessible, founding Women Play DND. &amp;nbsp; You can find Becca at: &amp;nbsp; https://www.womenplaydnd.co/ &amp;nbsp; https://www.instagram.com/womenplaydnd/ &amp;nbsp; https://www.threads.com/@womenplaydnd Tales from the Fandom http://www.talesfromthefandom.com <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/42052830/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/content/204022695
