Quick Update
It's been a while since I posted, so just a few quick updates on what is going on.

2) I'm writing again! Working on some Supernatural fan fiction.

Harassment, Misogyny and Silencing on YouTube
Given my latest run in with bigoted, ignorant arseholes, a recent article tweeted out by screenwrite/novelist Paul Cornell caught my attention. It's title "Dear The Internet, This Is Why You Can't Have Anything Nice" was a good lead in to a story about Anita Sarkeesian, who put up a project about stereotypes in video games on Kickstarter. It's ( Read more... ) -
More Idiot Comments
Just thought I'd share some more comments being directed at me from this article. Most of them come from someone called "Jericho REALLY Needs to Happen".
