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 come all ye faithful to the tune of ‘We’re Not Gonna Take It…’ … BRILLIANT!!! When to Listen: Honestly, this is a brainstorming song. The brilliance of combining this melody with this time-honored song, and doing a good job of it, should rub off on everyone!

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

Heh… well this one should be a surprise to no one! When to listen: Um… I would say general playlist again. It’s a good song, but it should pretty much remain a song when you’re already typing and just need to keep the energy up. Readers, Do you have a question about writing, publishing, my stories, etc?

Recently I’ve spoken about some characters and how aspects of those characters are ‘perfect’, ‘flawless’, or even ‘saintly’. How terrible things happen to these characters, yet they come away unscathed with no lasting physical or emotional scars. In other cases, they are just perfect throughout the entire story; always making the right decisions, never having to worry about ramifications, and never losing their … Read More Imperfection is Writing Perfection.

So I promised to leave a review with my thoughts on this action figure during one of my last action figure posts, and I am a man of my word. Finally, after a year of waiting, I got an email that the figure had shipped. It arrived at my house over the weekend much to my joy. I took her out of the box… … Read More Figma Figure Review: Corrin Fire Emblem Fates

This song is dumb. I mean downright dumb. Listen to the lyrics and the horrible things that they say about Africa. I know… I know… they meant Ethiopia, but they didn’t say Ethiopia, they said Africa. “There’s a world outside your window, and it’s a world of dread and fear Where a kiss of love can kill you, and there’s death in every tear … Read More From My Writing (Christmas!)

Next up on the playlist is a song that… well you really don’t need a Holiday as an excuse to listen to this one… Not the most politically correct song, but I can’t tell you how many drunken karaoke nights I’ve done around the Holiday where me and a few friends got up and sang this one… no I do not have video. When … Read More From My Writing (Christmas!) Playlist

One of Avantasia’s songs off of the Metal Opera. Again, a very well done album that I thoroughly encourage everyone to listen to. When to Listen: This is a reflective song. Listen to this when a character is doing inward looking or soul searching. Readers, Do you have a question about writing, publishing, my stories, etc? Please feel free to post a comment or … Read More From My Writing Playlist
