All I did today was play video games. Didn’t work. Didn’t paint. Didn’t write. Didn’t even look at my e-mail. Played video games. It felt great. Am I recharged for tomorrow? We’ll find out…

Man, KOTOR1 is waaaaaay better written than KOTOR2. Or at least, a heckuva lot funnier, which in my world amounts to mostly the same thing. Of course, there was the obligatory murder trial…I’d make up a drinking game, but at the rate games come out, that’d be one drink every eighteen months, and… Actually, that […]
Oh my god, fluffy neo-pagans who take themselves too seriously getting up in arms about the word “warlock.” Oh god. I will not drop everything I am doing and start plotting a story with a charming and decent warlock protagonist. I won’t. I won’t. I have too much to do already. I have to finish […]

Phrases I Never Thought I’d Utter: “You know, a cutscene of a character standing around giving needlessly elaborate exposition would have really helped back there.” It was beautiful right up until the Jedi all died, and then they tore a hole […]
Phew. Well, I got the first 3/5ths or so of the book going in one more or less cohesive glop. And now I’m gonna shove it into the proverbial drawer for a week or two, because I have absolutely no distance from it whatsoever, and can’t tell who’s whining too much and who’s an idiot […]
