I make it a point to avoid political or religious pontification on this blog. It really isn’t why I started it. In the past when I’ve veered into that territory I’ve caused more problems than I care to consider, save for this post from our last Independence Day. That one went well. This one has… Continue reading Unconscionable

Five Hundred
Today marks the 500th post on Blue Ink Alchemy. I thought it might be fun to take a peek at the last few round-number milestones, just to see how far we’ve come. Oddly, two of the four hundred-level posts have to do with Maschine Zeit. Not that I’m complaining, mind you. Post 100: Consistent Characters… Continue reading Five Hundred
Have A Plan
I think part of the problem with the previous deadlines for my upcoming video project was I didn’t establish any guidelines for what to do before the deadline hit. So let’s fix that, shall we? It should make the week to come more organized and the overall project a bit less intimidating. Today I will… Continue reading Have A Plan
48 Hour Hiatus
It’s been a long, long year. I’ve maintained a schedule for most of that year, with posts every day and Netflix every Friday. I want to move the thing forward to its next logical step, but that requires time and energy. Most of the last couple weeks, I haven’t had the time. Today? I just… Continue reading 48 Hour Hiatus
Full Burners
Courtesy Terribleminds The best way for me to avoid feeling the doldrums of both the season and my situation are to stay busy. I throw myself into my writing during the commute and immerse myself in games and other media while I’m home. Yes, I’m an awful procrastinator when it comes to chores because of… Continue reading Full Burners
At The Melting Pot
No D&D this week, so I’ll save the next Nentir Vale post for next Tuesday. That way it’ll be fresh in everybody’s mind. My Christmas bonus from the dayjob this year came in the form of a gift card for the Melting Pot. I’d never been to a fondue restaurant before, but to my knowledge… Continue reading At The Melting Pot
Winter has come TOO SOON
My sister gave me this lovely gift for Christmas. I’ve always wanted a scale Firelord following me around, serving as my personal cook fire and immolating nearby critters. I don’t know if he actually does the latter part yet. We’ll see. So am I the only one who feels like this snow storm we got… Continue reading Winter has come TOO SOON
Christmas, All Over Again
It might be kind of tacky to recycle last year’s Christmas card, but I’m on a budget here. Whatever walk of faith you might be on (if any) Whatever wish you have for this season (if any) No matter where you go Or who you are with I pray for you to be happy I… Continue reading Christmas, All Over Again
Search Term Grab-Bag 2: Electric Boogaloo
Once again, not nearly as interesting as Chuck’s, but at least there’s something to jabber about. the brain I’m not sure if they were looking for my thoughts on brainy characters, or just the smart mouse that runs around with Pinky. troll wow, wow troll Still on the search for troll boobs, I’m assuming. batman… Continue reading Search Term Grab-Bag 2: Electric Boogaloo
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
