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 [...]
Wow… almost a post a day recently. Has hell frozen over to allow me some extra time to actually focus on things again? Oh yeah, that’s right, midterms are this week and I just happen to have a little spare time as a result. Oh well, I was kind of hoping… First, I would like [...]

A very special thanks to Poneria, from Fel Concentration, Jaedia, from The Lazy Sniper, and Gazimoff, from The Mana Obscura, for their input! Warning, this is a very long post. I wanted to incorporate views and thoughts that were not my own, and I wanted to keep things simple by not requiring everyone to follow [...]
I recently asked for input on what being a part of a community means to you, and I promised I would provide my answer when I posted the results of the survey. So pull up a chair, prop up your feet, grab a cup of coffee, and settle in for a candid chat wherein I’ll [...]
“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.
