I have two bachelor degrees, one in Psychology, the other in Computer Science. I've been playing some version of D&D, Pathfinder or Starfinder since about 2000 when my Dad started teaching me.

Introduction Well, well. This was the first blog that I didn’t have a plan for months ago. I despaired a little bit that I had worked my way through the “basic” beginner design spaces for Starfinder. When my head...
Introduction It is hard to describe exactly how uncomfortable editing is for me. I know its making my work better in the long run, but I am continually brought face-to-face with some awfully silly mistakes that I’ve made! My...
Introduction I’m not much of an editor in real life. In fact, I would argue that in any sort of writing class I’ve been in, I’ve lost more points on silly grammatical errors than any other way to lose...
Introduction Nothing hit home more than Andrew Marlowe’s article on Tuesday. I discovered my creative vein at the end of 2019, and have been fostering it throughout 2020. It hasn’t been easy folks, that is for sure! Last week’s...
