I have a notion to sell some of them considering that I've not looked at them in a decade but as I continued to browse I don't think I could find one that I would seriously get rid of. Games like "Chivalry and Sorcery" and "Bushido". I know the last time I looked at this pile was around 1995 because the most recent game in the attic was Nightspawn by Palladium which was published in 1995. I moved out in 1996 and the books were put into storage (and to this day I've still not read Nightspawn).

More importantly were the other things I found. Games and stories I wrote nearly a decade before I put pen to paper for The 23rd Letter. Pictures I drew of "SuperTeams" from my superhero games. Maybe a photo or two of the notebooks I would bring with me to school (we're talking about the 80s here) and spend my lunchtimes and free study classes writing game materials and stories in. All personal to me.

I'm going to bore the shit out of some of you by reproducing some of them here in a new category called "Archaeology" so you can avoid them if you like.
