The Terribleminds Revenge of the Sub-Genre Mash-Up made me do it. “Ms. Hart? There’s a Detective Dyson here to see you, ma’am.” It would take the visitor 45 seconds at a regular pace to reach her office door. She had plenty of time to prepare. “Send him back, Sandy.” Dyson was an ex-cop, according to… Continue reading Flash Fiction: Hart's Office

First Impressions of Section 8: Prejudice
Most of the Steam sale madness has finally died down now that the holiday season is behind us. I’ll probably be writing full reviews of several titles I picked up recently, but for the moment I want to give my first impressions of a game I bought at the behest of His Majesty TotalBiscuit, Ye… Continue reading First Impressions of Section 8: Prejudice
Anybody Seen My Motivation?
About a year and a half ago I wrote up a post that differentiated between writer’s block and a dry spell. The former’s defined by a lack of ideas, the latter by outside influences draining the writer’s energy and free time. I’d chalk up my current mental state to a dry spell if it weren’t… Continue reading Anybody Seen My Motivation?
Twenty Twelve
So here we are, folks. The calendars have been swapped, the Dramamine passed around, the coffee brewed and we stand now looking at where the sidewalk ends.

And where do… Continue reading IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas
Expansions in the Force
Let’s face an honest truth. The universe George Lucas created back in 1977 is a better place than he originally imagined. With the exception of Empire Strikes Back, which was written & directed by guys that weren’t Lucas, the original trilogy established his galaxy far, far away and populated it with strange aliens, turbulent politics… Continue reading Expansions in the Force

Another season has begun in the universe of StarCraft 2. And where does it find me? Yep. Bottom rung. Nothing’s really changed. Or has it? With the new job settling into a rhythm that I can cope with, I’m starting to plan more and stress less (at least a bit). Into those plans I’m trying… Continue reading Terribronze
This Is Gonna Suck
Artists come in all shapes and sizes. Some paint, some create music, others bring out the statues held captive by blocks of stone and still others start with blank pages to create new worlds and memorable characters. But regardless of the art involved, all artists need to face an unfortunate and ugly truth. Not everything… Continue reading This Is Gonna Suck
