After my longest hiatus yet (yes, I know this is getting old), I've finally returned to my blog! It's been way too long. Time has warped way too much during the pandemic, and honestly it feels like time travel writing here from 2023 cue back to the…
After another long haitus, I've returned to my blog! I know it's been ages, and to be honest I've been busy enough (more on that in a minute) that my posts will probably continue to come out only every couple of months or so, but I promise I'll keep…
It took a bit longer than I'd hoped, but I'm back again! As promised, I've got some updates related to the new Dresden Files book, as well as another book I'm reading by the author of the Broken Earth Trilogy, N.K. Jemisin: The City We Became…
Hello everyone! It's been a long time since I last updated this blog (about a year and a half, in fact!) A lot has happened in that time. I'll cover some of it here and some of it in later blog posts, but to start it off I've rebranded the blog a bit…
Hello again! Last weekend, I went to SCG Worcester for the second time! Unlike last time, I didn't play in the main event, but I did do three side events, and, more importantly, I got to spend time with friends I hadn't seen since I graduated in May…
Welcome back, and happy new year!! I welcomed in the new year in a foreign country for the first time in my life for 2019. Birthright was a wonderful experience for me, and I really enjoyed it. Here's some highlights: I got to experience a connection…
Hi again. Sorry for the late post again - I know it's been a while, but life's super busy! I've got a bunch of stuff for you today. First off, I'm going to be going on Birthright this Sunday! For those of you who don't know, Birthright is a thing…
Welcome back! I know it's been a while since I last posted. I've been super busy with work, for the most part, but I've also been working on a couple of other side projects, which I'd like to make a bit of an announcement here about. First, my debut…
Welcome back! Just a quick note before I begin today's post: I've started work (Just finished my second week), and have a long commute, so for now I'll only be posting once a week, on Saturdays or Sundays. Once I get an apartment closer to work, I'll…
Hi again! Today's post is about a bit of a lesser-known anime that came out in 2016 called Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash . While it's techically an Isekai anime, since it involves people from our world visiting another, vastly different world, the…
Continuing on last post's trend, today I'll be writing about another great anime that came out over the past year, Violet Evergarden . Violet Evergarden isn't a particularly action-packed anime, but if you're looking for something emotional that…
Hi again! Today, I'll be talking about another anime I recently watched, Made in Abyss . It's a fantasy anime set in a small town that surrounds the Abyss - a colossal hole in the ground that is so deep that no one has made it to the bottom and…
Hi again everyone! Today, I'll be talking about Grand Prix Providence, another major magic event I participated in over the weekend. GP Providence is similar to SCG Worcester, which I talked about a while back, but this time around, the main event…
Hello there! Today's topic of discussion is a fantastic video game I recently played, Rakuen . Rakuen is an RPG built in RPGMaker, the video game creation tool that was used to build To the Moon and Finding Paradise , which I've written about…
Hi again! Going off of yesterday's post about The Stormlight Archive , today I'll be writing a review of another one of Brandon Sanderson's series, Mistborn . The Mistborn books are much shorter than the Stormlight Archive books (roughly 500 pages…
Hi again! As promised, I'm posting again today, this time with one of my favorite animes, Re:Creators ! It's my first post here about anime, so here goes :) Anime is one of those things that gets a bad rep a lot of the time. Some of the often-used…
Hello! So today I'm making two posts, one about another of my favorite book series, and another about one of my favorite animes! First up is the books series, called The Stormlight Archive , by Brandon Sanderson. The first book in the series is The…
Welcome back! Today I'm going to talk a bit about two of my favorite video games: To the Moon and its sequel, Finding Paradise . They're essentially interactive stories. There aren't very many traditional gameplay elements, apart from a few…
Hello everyone! So this past weekend, I went to the StarCity Games Worcester Open! It was my first major Magic: the Gathering tournament, and I had a blast. With my new legacy deck (B/R Reanimator, for those of you who haven't seen my previous post…
Hi again! So today I'm going to take a break from Magic to talk about one of my favorite long-running book series: The Dresden Files . The Dresden Files are an urban fantasy series revolving around Harry Dresden: a wizard turned private eye living…
Hey everyone! So today, as promised last week, I'll be talking about my Edgar Markov EDH deck, the one that I bought that badlands for. The decklist is here for those who are interested. Vampire tribal was one of the first decks I ever played. I…
Welcome back! So today, I decided to make my entrance into a new format of Magic for me: Legacy. Legacy is a sixty-card Magic format that lies on the scale of expensive decks between Modern and Vintage. Modern includes cards from this list of sets…
Hi again, everyone! So today, a very expensive piece of paper arrived in the mail - A Badlands from the Magic: The Gathering set Revised. For those of you who don't know, Magic sets are released every few months, with the first, Alpha, having been…
I've read a lot of science fiction and fantasy novels over the years, too many to go through in one post. So I'm going to start with the most recent one I really enjoyed, and go back from there. The Broken Earth trilogy starts with The Fifth Season…
