Psydekick Larry Interviews: Sara Meadows

12/21/2020

Comments

 
Picture
These hard hitting questions were curated by a group of… one. Yes, Psydekick Larry came up with these questions all by himself. He also will speaks about himself in the third person on occasion. If you have any interesting or funny questions that you would like to submit to Psydekick Larry, write them down… and keep them to yourself until Psydekick Larry decides to make a reader’s Q&A issue. So without further adieu, let’s begin...
 
PL: Hey Sara! Let’s get this interview started. Where are you from?
Sara: I’m from Nebraska but have lived in Greenville, SC for 20 years now. And even though I grew up in Nebraska I’m still a city girl. I’ve never lived on a farm. 
PL: Give us two truths and a lie about yourself?
Sara: My name is listed in the credits for a board game. I have completed shipping and logistics for a board game. My likeness was used in artwork for a board game.
PL: Hmm… interesting… So what got you into the board gaming hobby?
Sara: I have always been a Board Gamer. I grew up playing board games and card games with my great-grandma who had almost 100 games in her collection mostly from the 50s and 60s. Will and I started playing Catan, To Court the King, and many, many other hobby games every Monday night with our neighbor starting back in 2005. We still have game night EVERY Monday!
PL: Wow! Your great-grandma was a board gamer? Nice! What do you love about board gaming?
Sara: I love the community surrounding board games. I also love the mental challenge of a good puzzle.
PL: What is your favorite board game and/or type of board game?
Sara: Tile placement, dice worker placement, set collection, and games with 3D spatial elements. According to the Board Gamer profile quiz I am an Omni gamer.
PL: What did you think when Will told you he was starting a board game company?
Sara: Well it’s about time! Will is an entrepreneur, and I regularly jump wholeheartedly into his projects.
PL: That’s awesome! When was the first time Will asked you to be in a video? And what did you think?
Sara: I had actually volunteered to being in a video much sooner than I ended up starring in one. I knew that the board game community needed more female voices... But wow, were those first videos rough! 
PL: Maybe we should try to find some of these old videos… LOL! What is your favorite drink and snack while playing board games?
Sara: Anything sweet. Will and I have a lot of "date nights" with coffee, cheesecake (or some other amazing dessert!) and a board game once the kids go to bed.
PL: Alright, we’ve made it to the end. Now for the question that the whole team dreads. LOL! What RPG race and class best describes you?
Sara: Elf Hunter/Rogue. Once in a while, I'll work on a team, but I usually like to do my own thing. Also, I have a very similar personality profile as Katniss Everdeen and Tris Prior.
PL: Thanks Sara!
