Ok, as I’ve mentioned before Im trying my hand at creative writing. I’ve got my draft prologue out and looking semi-polished.
However…..
How dare I have the temarity to comment on authors that I worship, when my writing skills are no where near the levels they posses. This project is doing one thing to me and that […]
Well, its been an eventful week for me.
I work as a mainframe operator, but also double up as after hours call centre/server monitoring for a large organisation. This incorporates a large number of servers across a LOT of locations and if you think I’m being deliberately obtuse about the details your due for a prize.
Well, […]
This week has started smashingly. Not only did I miss last weeks gaming due to my retarded work hours, but I seem to have fallen sick with some sort of chest bug. Im working overtime tonight, and I can’t call in sick as I’m covering someone else.
Life, peachy. Excellant.
As far as Champions on the weekend […]

So, I entered this writing challenge which began on may 1st. The objective of this is too write 150,000 words in 4 months. Basically this equates to a novel. Someone I know got me involved with this, and now I curse her name as it means I have to write 1250 words a night just […]
So there we were, faced with 13 daemons about 70 metres away. Dachmyre’s ambush had been planned well, it was going to take us an awesomely long time to cross that distance, all the while under fire from superior energy blasts. Magical energy blasts… From the techno void daemons.
Dachmyre politely enquires, with a smug visage […]
I work in I.T. Part of my job is after hours support of government clients. We act as the after hours call centre. I have to deal with stupid users all the time. People who refuse to educate themselves about the tool they have to use every day which sits in front of them.
You don’t […]
Its obscene o’clock in the morning, and for some reason known only to those who pass out the WTF coupons, Im awake. This has happened to me a couple of times this week, to the point that the fact I have to work in 4-5 hrs no longer concerns me.
This state of affairs is getting […]
Curious coincidence indeed. Not even a full day after I went on a little rant about authors using each others ideas, it seems that minds were thinking alike. In my case it was some random unknown (ME) venting at some well respected authors, in this case it’s well respected author Orson Scott Card absolutely blasting […]
Let the following be a lesson to you. Never EVER let another player look at your character sheet.
Picture if you will, a maglev train coming to a stop at the last function spaceport on a besieged planet. On board at 40 or so refugee’s, ten non-player characters of varying importance, and seven player characters, all […]
