The future...

 


The future…

I came into 2020 hoping to run more social RP-lite events on the Laurelin server. Now as we reach the end of this crazy year, sadly that never came to be. But as we head towards the Yule festival, my favourite event, moving forward I am hopeful and determined to attend more player events and also create and run more of my own. I have lots of ideas bubbling away, waiting to be released on unsuspecting Laurelin.

Below is what to expect in 2021 – events I have run in the past and also some of those ones bubbling away. There is no guarantees in life, but I am hopeful about running them. I am determined to run them. Let’s see what 2021 brings…
