Despite the rise of computer gaming, millions of adults still play face to face role playing games, which rely in part on social interaction to create stories. This work explores tabletop role playing game (TRPG) as a genre separate from computer role playing games. The relationship of TRPGs to other games is examined, as well as the interaction among the tabletop module, computer game, and novel versions of Dungeons & Dragons. Given particular attention are the narrative and linguistic structures of the gaming session, and the ways that players and gamemasters work together to construct narratives. The text also explores wider cultural influences that surround tabletop gamers.

For many people, the soothing sound of water trickling through a fountain has the same effect as taking a deep breath: it's instantly calming and relaxing. Now, thanks to this first-of-its-kind book, you can bring the rhythmic music of flowing water into your home with decorative tabletop fountains that you create yourself. The techniques are simple and the materials inexpensive. You begin with an attractive bowl or basin to which you add a submersible pump, along with plastic tubing to direct the water flow. Then comes the fun part--finding a way to disguise these elements. Marbles, stones, and rocks work well. In minutes, your fountain will be up and running. More elaborate fountains with layers of cascading water are also easy to build--they just take a little more time. Book jacket.
