Holy moly, it’s September already? Why, yes, it is. Well! Luckily for me, September is shaping up to be a fantastic month overall, and far as I can see that trend is going to continue out into October and hopefully November. After the rough last couple of months, this is definitely a welcome change. I’ve fully returned into the swing … Read More
Still Alive, Onward to August 2020
Okay, yeah, I know. It’s far from the start of the month. I’m behind—on a lot of things. Oh lordy, so much. July has been… a rough month for me. Things are better now though, I promise, and will—knocks on wood—hopefully continue trending that way. So what was I doing for most of July? Sulking, mostly. I went to a … Read More
Onward to July 2020
Hello, everyone! Another month, another peek at the days ahead. So, without further ado, let’s hit this July’s Onward: Phew, what a month June was! I’m incredibly pleased with how the release of Cradle of Sea and Soil went down. Reviews are trickling in and I have at least one from a blogger in the works; hopefully others will pick … Read More
Searching for the Path Toward a Better World
So, I haven’t spoken directly about the recent chain of racial events and outrage—specifically, but not limited to—the death of Floyd. Part of this is because I dislike politics and social posturing and my hobbies are where I go to escape from the dreary state of the world, not re-submerge myself into it. It’s within fantasy, whether a novel, video … Read More
Onward to June 2020
June is here, and, you know, I decided it’d be cool to start writing little monthly catch-alls for the positive things of interest to me that are going down. Looking forward to the good stuff was what kept me sane during my time in the military, even if it was something stupid and small like lunch or dinner, and with … Read More
Sitting out of SPFBO 2020, best of luck to the brave
Okay, so f me I guess. This year’s contest was announced and is taking place earlier than last year (May 23rd for submissions, June 1st for the start). Too early for me to get my novel properly edited and then sent out. I considered (and even briefly decided to try) rushing things to make the cut because I felt my … Read More
My quarantine has been peaceful and I’ll take it
Heya! Another super late update from me. I’m doing fine, still alive, financially secure, and in good health. Been mostly doing drafts on Cradle of Sea and Soil and getting through my Steam backlog during breaks. I’ve mostly kept my head down and focused on getting my novel out, which has worked out pretty well. I’m very proud of Cradle … Read More
This is fine.
Well, it’s been a while since I last posted. There’s somewhat of a good reason for that; the world seems to be burning. Okay, maybe not literally, but it sure feels like it. COVID-19 is affecting the world in many, many ways, and here in the United States, it’s no different. Oregon has invoked shutdown policies all across the state, … Read More
