@Chess_Iceman I'm a few months ahead of you. I think the main thing is focusing on what you can do, and prioritizing. Obviously, family comes first. In chess, I've mainly focused on playing rapid games (mostly 15+10) and analyzing them afterwards. #chesspunks #chessdads

@Lona_Chess I helped start a club in my town. We don't have a dedicated location, but we meet weekly at a local restaurant. I also became a club TD so we could host tournaments. We usually do a Saturday tournament every other month.

@Michael_Irvin30 How quickly do you play through the games?
