In no particular order and written in a purely “stream of consciousness” style: Having a couple of weeks between semesters was a much needed break. Full time work and full time school do not mix very well, and I was definitely feeling the burnout from a lack of free time. This coming semester will, hopefully, [...]
… which has been easily apparent by my lack of posting for a while. I was out of town for a couple of weeks in addition to having an inordinately high amount of classwork I needed to take care of, but I wanted to at least post something so that you guys all know I’m [...]
If your first thought was “Portal” I applaud you, but this time it is just an update on why things have been so quiet around here lately. It seems that full time work and a full time class load do not really lend themselves to enhancing my ability to keep up with Diabolical Minds like [...]
The good news is that I’m moved, most things are at least in an accessible place even if temporarily set up, and I have consistent net access. The bad news is that the net access here is pretty sporadic at being decent due to old copper lines running to the house, so my current gaming [...]
A number of things are occurring that will, most likely, impact my ability to maintain the blog for a short time. I’ll attempt to continue to respond to comments (and emails and tweets will be easy enough to do from my phone), but it may be a few weeks before things settle down again and [...]
Typically I refrain from bringing anything too personal to the blog. Normally I’m a fairly “closed-off” person, and would rather simply retreat into my mind to work through things than to share them with anyone else. There are two reasons I’m doing things differently this time: one, the recent trend of working to grow a [...]
“There are times when writers feel a desire to rant, to ponder, to laugh, and to become less anonymous in the eyes of the public. What better way exists to establish a rapport unless, of course, one wishes only to appear concerned?” — Unattributed Prelude When I stumbled across the above quote I was reminded [...]
A quick post inspired by this one by Lady Jess, I thought I would share my gear setup as well. The above picture is not really a good shot at all (when I have some more time I’ll take a better one if anyone is interested), but it does provide an overview of what I [...]
With November, and subsequently NaNoWriMo, behind us now I am able to once again focus more on the posts I want to explore here on Diabolical Minds. I also wanted to provide some exciting news: I met, and exceeded, the goal for NaNoWriMo! I would love to say I would share some of the story [...]
I’m a bit late getting this one posted, but it has to be better late than never… right? Syrana tagged me again in a recent meme calling itself some type of award. I’m not sure how doing more work qualifies as a reward quite yet, but when I figure it out I’ll let you know! [...]
