Overclocked
If you’re unfamiliar with OverClocked ReMix, you should do something about that. The concept is simple: take your favorite video game music, remix or rework it into a different genre or with different music, and post it on the site. The results are many and varied, as you can see here: Chrono Trigger: Schala’s Theme… Continue reading Overclocked
IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! Ladyhawke
[audio:http://www.blueinkalchemy.com/uploads/ladyhawke.mp3] Ah, the 80s. A time of big hair, big money and big ambitions. It was a time when actors could be presidents, MTV actually played music, and a young writer wrapped his hands around the joystick of an Atari 2600 for the first time. Many an afternoon in my house was spent with my… Continue reading IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! Ladyhawke
The Hunter in Cataclysm: Etiquette
…Guess I’m looking for non-tier things to buy. I’m not entirely happy with Cataclysm right now. It has less to do with the prospect of my hunter’s Tier 11 armor, which makes me look like I’m being devoured by an undead murloc, and more with some of the behavior I’m seeing. I know it doesn’t… Continue reading The Hunter in Cataclysm: Etiquette

For a party almost all completely new to D&D and a DM re-familiarizing himself with the latest edition, it’s a great place to start a campaign.… Continue reading Into the Nentir Vale: Part 7
Why I Write
If you ask a writer for advice, quite a few of them will simply tell you to read. I’m reading the second novel in A Song of Ice and Fire and I may start the new year with a fresh read of Lord of the Rings. I also read articles on Fark and the Escapist.… Continue reading Why I Write
After the Empire
During our last D&D session, I tried to expand a bit on the history of the land outside of the Nentir Vale. My players, ever helpful, asked me to put everything down in a post they could read rather than having me go through it when they should rightly be slaying monsters and collecting loot.… Continue reading After the Empire
A Christmas Announcement
Among the other things I’ve been ‘meaning to do’ when it comes to the creative endeavors in my life was something I considered doing for a recent competition but did not have the time to do a justifiably decent job. It’s continued to sit in the back of my mind, and the trends in my… Continue reading A Christmas Announcement
IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! Casino
This week’s IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! brought to you by a generous donation by Mike Jarossy. Thank you for your support! [audio:http://www.blueinkalchemy.com/uploads/casino.mp3] Good filmmaking is rightly lauded in modern cinema. Consistently good filmmaking is damn close to a miracle. Take a look at the films of Martin Scorsese, and it’s very possible that this little… Continue reading IT CAME FROM NETFLIX! Casino
