Resolutions

I typically don’t go in for New Year’s resolutions. It can be overly restrictive, particularly when things change – as they are wont to do in this day and age – and sometimes it can set a person up to fail by making sweeping declarations of all the things they intend to accomplish in the […]

Triumphant Return!

Sunday I got back home from Midwinter Gaming Convention https://www.facebook.com/midwintergamingconvention/ which has become an annual, can’t miss event for me. In the past, I’ve gone as booth monkey for Onyx Path, but this year they didn’t need my help at the show, so I volunteered to run three sessions of my convention one-shot, set in […]

I have to admit, I’m getting too old to […]

What a Monday!

Yeesh; I went to add a new post today, and couldn’t log in. I called my hosting service, and they discovered activity that suggests a brute force attack was underway to try to take control of my website. The IT guy I spoke with suggested it was common practice to break in and use a […]

The Horror, the Horror

Horror has been a major component of my writing career. Of the sixteen tabletop role-playing projects I’ve worked on that have been published so far, at least ten are overtly horror-themed. Both of my published short stories are horror or dark fantasy. While I have concerns about being pigeonholed, the horror genre has been good […]
