Inside Track 042: Skip Williams
 |
We were very excited to have arranged a meeting with Skip Williams. He had an impact on many years of our lives. Skip is a co-owner in Crystal Unicorn Enterprises where you can find his forums. A bunch of his and Penny’s work can be found in the Vicious Venues Archive. He also mentions some fiction in Time Twisters. Apart from today’s show, you can learn more about Skip Williams in an entertaining interview with Monte Cook. |
| Skip Williams professes a love of old things, such as classic Hollywood movies, musty old books, vintage airplanes, his wife, Penny, and the century-old farmhouse he shares with her-though not necessarily in that order. |  |
Skip has numerous role-playing game credits, and has dabbled in many other things. Skip pens the Ask the Kobold feature in Kobold Quarterly and has recently completed a work for Dungeon Magazine.
When not contriving dire plots to bedevil role-players, Skip putters in his vegetable garden and orchard (which keep many deer and rabbits fed), and works to reclaim the fields around the farmhouse from the obstinate weeds that blanket them. He also paints toy soldiers.
The Williams house is the site of an annual Christmas cookie bake that draws friends from both sides of the Atlantic; it’s also the permanent home to a growing pride of unruly housecats.

I loved the interview. It was great to hear some of the insights behind the changes in D&D over the years.
I would have liked to hear yours and Skip’s impression of Pathfinder RPG coming soon from Paizo. All those gamers who like 3.5 and want to stay with it will be able to feel like it has not been tossed into the rubbish bin. Paizo, with their Pathfinder products, plans on releasing future products for the line.
