(Untitled)
About a week ago my new play group gathered for our first session of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 3rd Edition. I took notes and had some thoughts on the game that I thought may be useful to others, or at least interesting. I should warn you that I've not written many actual play reports, so I might not have the skills down yet, but here's what I've ( Read more... ) -
Back in the Saddle
Tonight I'll be running my first session of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 3rd Edition. Incidentally, this will also be the first time I've run a session of any kind of RPG in nearly a year. I'll be going through the books again later today to brush up on the rules, then I'll clean up our tiny living room and get the place set up for the play group ( Read more... ) -
I'm an Open Box
I recently got a copy of the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 3rd Edition boxed set (thank you, Christmas). It was something that I've been considering deeply since it was announced at Gencon. I loved Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay in previous incarnations and still have a bunch of the Green Ronin/Black Library stuff on my shelf, but I was unsure about the ( Read more... ) -
Trajectory
Man, has it been a while since I posted on this thing. Nearly a year, and not a single post. Once was a time I would check LJ once a day and post nearly as often. I've lost the discipline of that, the need to share my thoughts I guess. Just came a time for a while when I thought that my thoughts weren't that interesting. Met a whole lot of ( Read more... ) -
Dreamation 2009 pt. 1 - Oh, The Places You'll Go!
I haven't even unpacked yet. The bags are sitting out on the couch, clothes rumpled up inside of them, and I am just too spent to unpack them.
Well, I had to unpack the new books. That was unavoidable.
I just got back from Dreamation 2009, another incredible gaming convention experience spearheaded by the enthusiastic Vinny Salzillo. I look ( Read more... ) -
Take What I Can Get
All winter long I've been thinking about moving. Someplace warmer, someplace different. I've moved a lot through my life and every couple of years I always feel a little worm of desire twisting inside of me for some new place to see ( Read more... ) -
The Rumours of My Death...
... were somewhat exagerated. Instead, there's just been a whole ton of bad news in my life right now. Chiefly amongst those things is the fact that I was evicted from my aprtment about a month ago. Long story made short, a number of things teamed up on me, I ran out of money and couldn't afford to pay rent for a while, and my landlord didn't ( Read more... ) -
Cooking Skill +2 (With a new specialization!)
Between whinging on about production of Criminal Element and the life that I'm slowly losing to work, I do the occasional cool thing. Sometimes I get together with my friends and hang out. Sometimes I go see a cool-looking movie. And sometimes I learn something new... like how to make sushi.

Edit Me... For the Good of the World!
There's a job I'm trying to get. It's a desk job, it involves writing, it's many things that I'm looking for.
It's also the first time I've ever had to submit a writing sample.
So I wrote a little something, a review of the movie Brick. And I want this thing to be good. I know that there are many, many writers amongst my friends here, so I'm ( Read more... ) -
And the Heat Just Keeps Getting Hotter
Darwyn Cooke, of Catwoman and The New Frontier fame, adapts Donald Westlake's Parker novels into graphic novels for IDW.
I spent twenty dollars on a beat-up mass-market trade of "the Hunter" because it was called "the Hunter" and not the re-titled "Point Blank". I'm on this like white on rice. And when I'm done re-reading The Big Nowhere, it's ( Read more... )
