I wrote a blog post with the useful bits from my alternate introduction to Tales of Peril---mostly about how I came to play D&D and to know the Holmes Basic Set: https://grodog.blogspot.com/2018/05/grodogs-start-in-gaming-1977.html

  1. Allan, have you ever shared the text of the letter that Holmes wrote you?

  2. Zach H: I don't think that I have. I don't recall that there was much in the way of revelatory content within it, but I'll bring it with me to NTX and see what Chris Holmes thinks about sharing it or not.
