I played tons of Infocom games as a kid. I loved them. Then I discovered other people on the Internets still loved them, too.
I like to try to write, too, but it's been quite a learning experience. I'm still leaving obvious stuff out, and I'm still going in for the sort of crazily abstruse puzzles that made Infocom such a neat profit in hintbooks. But I want to learn.
