In the past day I've been thinking about what I would "do with my life" if I didn't have to worry about money or other existential concerns... not like how I would live it up if I were a gentlewoman of leisure (that's a different question), but what my primary pursuit would be.
And the answer I've come up with is: game design and creation. Most specifically tabletop roleplaying games. Writing them and putting them out in the world is the thing I would most like to be doing with my life, if I didn't have any worries.
Now, I do have worries... health stuff, money stuff, house stuff, political stuff... and the stuff I want to do has to be worked in around these concerns.
And thinking about what I would do if I didn't have those concerns seems like a good step in setting priorities.

If you've followed me long enough you've probably seen me noodling around with game design theory stuff on here, or even seen drafts of tabletop projects I shared on a blog. So this isn't new to me.
And I basically *always* have some game design thing simmering on a backburner, as a thing I can pick up when I'm running out of steam on something else and need a palate cleanser or whatever.
And I really like the way my current ideas on tabletop RPG stuff have been coming together. So maybe I'll work on shaping up my random design notes and turning them into something.
I'm not making solid, definite plans right now so much as thinking out loud here.
