Lately I'm seeing a new subgenre called LitRPGs, about people who get stuck and/or physically immersed in on-line RPGs somehow. It strikes me as a kind of odd concept, but I've stumbled across enough examples that it's apparently a semi-popular thing. That might be an area to poke at.
Should your favorite book be a game? Should you write books based on your favorite game? Why? Why not?
Maybe something on gaming and technology. Is it really role-playing if you only interact via a keyboard and a screen? How about games where everything is done over Skype or a Google Hangout? How does technology change the classic RPG experience?
