GOTHRIDGE MANOR

My name is Tim Shorts, I've been gaming since the winter of 1979. I started the Gothridge Manor blog in April of 2009. Now in 2019 I am moving Gothridge Manor to a new home. I must have a thing for 9's. 

​

In 2011 I released my first published adventure, Knowledge Illuminates, and started my one-man publishing company, GM Games. In 2012 I released my first issue of The Manor, a zine dedicated to old school games. Then in June of 2014 I started a Patreon called Micro-Adventures where I create adventures, locations, NPC Cards, and miscellaneous tools. 

​

Gothridge Manor is my gaming sanctuary. It's where I blog to express my ideas, to share my latest gaming purchases, and to show what maps I'm working on. You'll find nothing serious here except topics that center around gaming. 

​

And I'll quote myself from the first issue of The Manor because it is a philosophy I still adhere to today. I do this for fun, not to change minds or challenge gaming philosophies. I roll dice, laugh, and try to make my funny voices sound convincing. 

​

Thank you for checking out my little slice of the gaming world.
