Did you guys know I'm a massive fan of the video game series Kingdom Hearts? I mean, of course you did, [...]

[Game Grinding] Silver:Line -Demo- Review
Oh wow, my first time reviewing an Indie game has come! I think I can say I've leveled up again in this silly writing game of mine, don't you think? For this round, I'm going to be reviewing Silver:Line by CodeV Productions. I had the honor of getting a shot at the demo, and I'll [...]
[Game Grinding] Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia Review
It's no secret that I'm a fan of the Fire Emblem series. I got my knowledge of the series as a child playing Super Smash Bros Melee with my cousins, and Marth burst onto the scene. I always had a passionate for JRPG's, and back then, I never knew how much it would have bloomed [...]
[Ad-Vices] Love in a Fantasy
Here's part two of my Valentine's Day special saga! Romance is a sub-genre that was always a bit tricky to me in my fantasy novels. I almost never decided to have "ships" in my books, because I felt as though characters should be embraced for more than just a pairing that occurs. I had been [...]
[A Week of] Writing A New Beginning
Starting a new story has always been a massive struggle for me. With my last novel series, "The Final Lesson," I already knew how I wanted that story to begin. It was only fitting to start with the main plot theme of the story, Leilana preparing to venture off and start her journey to become [...]
[A Week Of] Embracing the New Year
The first week kind of just trickled in, but hello! I'm here, in 2019, and I'm working my buns to the burning brisket! So far in the first week, I've managed to send my novel "Gravekeeper" off to the editor, received it, and now it's prepping to go out into the world, but I'm not [...]
[Reflection] 2018
Can you believe that this year is going to be over in just a couple of days? It definitely doesn't feel like it to me. It kind of flew past. Still, the end of another year means it's time for me to present a reflection of everything that's gone on in this time span, something [...]
Santa’s Helpers [“The Final Lesson” Christmas Short]
Hey there everyone, happy Christmas! I decided that I would take the time to write a little short just for the holidays! It is an alternate-universe short story for my novel "The Final Lesson," and technically it would fall somewhere right in between both books. But as book two starts six months after book one, [...]
[Break-time] Week Four
The last week of my break is finally pushing its way in, and tomorrow is Christmas Eve! Just kind of a shame that my break wasn't, you know, fully a break, since I'm still working my day job on the side. But os'well, can't really complain about it. Not to your ears, anyways. So, what's [...]
[Break-time] Week Three
I've had a few firsts this week, going right into start of it. I got to attend my first public book release (not for myself), and one of my older cousins is currently visiting. It's the first time I've seen him in six years, and boy, does it show. I'm apparently taller. A lot of [...]
