RE: I'm Mike DiBaggio, Author and Creator of (Open Source) Worlds of Heroic Adventure
I haven't been writing publicly long enough to have anyone really even see my work, let alone want to riff off of it. But I'm totally open to that. I think Steemit can be a place for an open exchange of ideas between writers in a way that hasn't really been done before. Or maybe it has but I have just never run into it.
Are you from Pittsburgh? Just reading the synopsis of The Dismal Tide. I was born there and grew up on the west coast, but lived there a couple years in high school. I mean nobody who isn't from there calls it The Burgh AFAIK.
I live in the eastern part of Pennsylvania, about 4.5 hours away from Pittsburgh. If you have heard of Yuengling beer, you know where I'm from.
But I lived in Pittsburgh for four years in the early 2000s when I went got my undergrad degree at Pitt. I lived in Oakland and Shadyside and spent a ton of time exploring the area. I think it's a really neat place, at least geographically and culturally, with a surprisingly deep history for a city in Pennsylvania. Plus, write what you know, and all that...
