Epic Dolls

Well, I should have made this post on like, Tuesday night, but to be honest I've been slammed this week.

I'm honored, excited and so full of appreciation to the Epic Dolls for giving me the opportunity to strut my writing stuff on their blog in a weekly column. I think I'm going to REALLY enjoy writing for them. I've always wanted to write about World of Warcraft in a "professional" manner, and this is finally my opportunity to do so.

The writing that I do for WoW isn't the normal gear / raid strat / spec talk. I enjoy all that stuff, but just about universally don't understand it. I want it to be someone else's responsibility to tell me what mob I ought to hit; I'm not interested in changing a spec; and I'm always up for some new gear, but let's be honest here - I'm too lazy to go after it.

My primary focus is on the social side of MMO gaming. I love the way people interact with one another, the way they pull together for a common goal, and the friendships that can be formed. If you have a question about social interaction within WoW, I'm your girl. If you wanna know if your [Shifty Cape of Much Slapping] is good for your Healing Priest build, you're better off asking someone else.

So, I'm excited about writing about what I know, and being encouraged to do so. I'll be rotating between two different column styles - the first will be a "Dear Abbey" type thing where people write in to ask my advice about stuff. The second will be a hints-and-tips type column for people who are interested in making their guild more socially-active. I just hope people will find the information I provide useful.

That's it - That's the good news. If you're interested in reading more about the Epic Dolls, use the link above or just click on their link in the "Things I Observe" section over there on the left. It's a great site and a great podcast!
