Missed the birthday of Don Turnbull, head of TSR UK, yesterday! Don was an early contributor to White Dwarf magazine - especially its Fiend Factory segment which highlighted community-submitted monsters!

Don edited the Fiend Folio and coauthored other publications, including the AD&D Saltmarsh module series - a personal favorite!

Celebrating the life of author Fred Saberhagen, creator of deeply intriguing sci-fi and fantasy worlds - my favorite being Empire of the East! Gary Gygax also included Fred’s work among the inspirations for D&D.
