Favorite D&D Blogs

I haven't posted here in a while, and I am resolving to do so more.

I will start by giving credit to the blogs that make me want to blog for D&D and other topics.

1) The Alexandrian
http://thealexandrian.net/

Justin Alexander's blog is the only one I follow on a regular basis. I enjoy his writing style, and his perspective is a refreshing outside-the-box approach. His articles on open design, whether it's Jaquaying the Dungeon, player agency, sandbox adventures, open tables, or miscellaneous insightful GMing tips, have proved to be very helpful, even inspiring at times. His article, Hexcrawl in the Underdark, led to me designing a campaign entirely on the concept (despite how the campaign imploded due to unrelated player personality conflict). I highly recommend a read and a bookmark.

2) Dungeonomics

Multiplexer's blog was brought to my attention by my wife. As an economist, it was refreshing that someone else had spent as much time thinking about fantasy economics as me. Emily/Multiplexer writes about economic interactions in ways that challenged my own assumptions and also entertain as she places the economic and financial questions in the context of her own interesting setting. I would love to sometime run around in her world, but I suspect I would stop adventuring and begin playing Coinage and Corporations instead of Dungeons and Dragons. For anyone who has ever thought that D&D's economy seems simple on the surface, I challenge to visit and revisit your assumptions. Several favorite posts include The Tragedy of the Murderhoboes, the Tontine,  and How the Identify Spell Destroys the World.

3) Hack and Slash

A classic blog with deep discussions on player agency and adventure design, it is a great place to visit for good ideas. I spend less time on this blog, but having revisited it for this post, I realize I should read it more often. -C is an experienced GM with insight on RPGs that are worth reading by anyone who wants to improve their craft.

I will revisit this topic in the future, as there are many great blogs out there worth mentioning.
