  • Editing Fratricide, Week 2

    Second week of novel editing. I’m perhaps off pace but still making consistent progress, which is worth something. The most complicated parts are still upcoming.

  • Editing Fratricide, Week 1

    I am off and running, revising my novel draft. Now I just need to lock in for the next two months.

  • My book report

    I’ve decided that my November writing project this year will be editing the in-progress draft of my first novel. So, at 68,000 words, what do I have to work with?

  • My metatextual drinking buddy, part 1

  • Vacated

  • Lessons learned

    I’ve started running Urban Shadows recently, and it’s one of only a few games I’ve decided to run again in the last few years. How can I do games better a second time, and will I be revisiting more games now?

  • Hitting the ground

    A word of advice: Don’t wait to take any of your company-issued PTO until the end of September.

  • Jenga

    A short and late post this week; let’s talk about all the literal (and figurative) falling block towers.
