So to be honest, writing isn’t the only thing I do. Aside from writing stories, I’m also a guitar player, IT/IS whiz (professionally speaking), father of three, trivia jockey, amateur historian, and artist. (You should see my resume!) I tell a lot of writers not to work on their stories when they’re stressed out or agitated. Usually the result isn’t all that great. So … Read More From my Sketchbook #Art #Animation #Anime #Doodling

If it’s not plainly obvious at this point, I love Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli’s work. There’s a sense of adventure and excitement in the stories they produce, and even when it’s a dark story, the animation is always colorful and fun. After watching Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind (Yes, I know, not Ghibli, but made by many of the same people, … Read More The Great Studio Ghibli Hunt: A Review!

(Okay full disclosure before we get going, I know a lot of people don’t consider Avatar to be Anime, however in many aspects, I think it is close enough in many aspects. Stylistically, it is very similar to things like Studio Ghibli and other mediums.) If it wasn’t plainly obvious, I love anime!

Most of my friends from when I was in college would probably roll their eyes at this one… because I’ve said a lot about it. For everyone who’s played Kingdom Hearts, you know the basic gist of the game. To beat the game and stop the darkness, you need the power of the 7 princesses… I know, I know, but trust me, it’s a … Read More Opinion: Rinoa Should Have Been A Kingdom Hearts Princess!

Oh I just know I’m going to piss off a lot of people with this one… Keeping in mind, I’m just focusing on the main title, not the sequels or prequel here. Final Fantasy 7 came out roughly a year after I got my first PlayStation. I was in either 6th or 7th grade at the time… I don’t really remember. The gamer … Read More Unpopular Opinion: Final Fantasy 7 isn’t as good as you remember

Oh God… he’s talking about Fire Emblem again! Yes I am! So ever since Fire Emblem Awakening came out, there has been some controversy over the characters. Though I tend to ignore these as there seems to be a controversy every time a FE comes out, I wanted to weigh in on this one… For those of us who’ve played Awakening… we all know … Read More Fire Emblem: The Nowi Controversy

Oh… what does one say about this little gem of Canadian programming? Imagine pairing Jay and Silent Bob, Chris Farley and David Spade: Bill and Ted part of the cast of Police Academy: Your wise-cracking father and his tennis partner: and The Stars of Beauty and the Bitch: into teams and having them race for a prize of one million dollars… You’d have about as … Read More Total Drama: The Ridonculous Review

I usually roll my eyes and avoid weird ‘working class hero’ conspiracy theories… but I’ve noticed a trend lately when playing Pokemon Go that I wanted to see if others could confirm. In my home state of Massachusetts, I do a lot of traveling on a near daily basis. I keep Pokemon Go on at all times to try to hatch eggs. However… I’ve … Read More Is Pokemon Go Elitist?
