Adam moved on to teach in
CT elementary schools. During summers, he directed Red Dragon Adventures
to showcase the live roleplaying mysteries he was writing. He eventually moved
into grants writing for non-profits, as he turned his hand to writing children's books.
One of his mysteries grew into a delightful series called The Unbelievable FIB. I
recommend this series to our readers -- and can say that I was there
when Mr. Fox began his enigmatic journey. I still have a copy of the mysteries Adam wrote in 1997, and am very proud to have played a role in his creative journey.
The illustration above shows
how the FIB (Fantasy Investigation Bureau) first began, as a spoof of
the TV series The X Files. Adam drew this in 1997 for our program, as a self-portrait for the Kids' First summer program. We offered ten adventures that summer!

As a fellow Dragonmage, Adam will be teaming up with me to play various characters in our mystery. His daughter May will be joining our small group of detectives to enter the Dunraven Fair.
My portrait from the 1997 summer of adventures is posted here, too, for your entertainment. This was before Dragon's Eye became Dragon's Eye, which happened around 1998 or 1999. Dragons were still front and center in my concept of adventure play, and this self-portrait shows that the Asian dragons of water and wind have always been foremost in my mind.
