Hey all, Sam here. So my plan had been to make today's Weekend Writer post cover the next two chapters of the book, but considering that Chapter Two is over 50 pages long, I feel like that would end up being way too long...which means that I'm going to go for another double dose of… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Save the Cat!

Hey all, Sam here. Here we are at our 100th day of posting in a row, a 100 day streak, and wow...that's pretty cool and pretty impressive. And I didn't know what I wanted to do for today's post. Part of me wanted to do something special, but I also realized that I didn't have… Continue reading Book Review: Critical Role: The Mighty Nein: The Nine Eyes of Lucien by Madeleine Roux (and narrated by Robbie Daymond and the cast of Critical Role)
WIP Wednesday – May 10
Hey all, Sam and David here. It's the middle of the week again, already. We have a game night with a fellow geek couple later, and it should be pretty fun. I don't know exactly what we're going to play, but we normally have one longer game and a couple of quick play games to… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – May 10
Tabletop Tuesday: Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves Monopoly
Hey all, Sam and David here. Hopefully at this point, you all realize that we are both huge geeks. We own a pretty nicely sized tabletop game collection in our home. Our dining room is primarily a game room, not an eating room----we mostly eat on TV trays in the living room. Our dining room… Continue reading Tabletop Tuesday: Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves Monopoly

David’s Game Reviews: DragonQuest Builders.
Okay so this is the second game I have taken up in my pursuit of gaming reviews. Now an RPG is definitely more of a type that I would choose over most games. This one however also plays a bit like Minecraft, which I love to goof around in from time to time just to… Continue reading David’s Game Reviews: DragonQuest Builders.
Book Review: Nettle & Bone by T. Kingfisher
Hey all, Sam here. I need to get my blog schedule back under control. Too many days my posts go up hours after I'd like them to, and it's frustrating me. I have these plans to have the posts go up at a certain time, that is 3 pm Central Time, because that's pretty much… Continue reading Book Review: Nettle & Bone by T. Kingfisher
Weekend Writer: Save the Cat! Writes a Novel: Chapter One – Why Do We Care? Creating the Story-Worthy Hero by Jessica Brody
Hey all, Sam here. Every time I pick up a writing craft book, I wonder what I'm going to learn, if I'm going to relate to how the subject matter is presented, and if the book is going to one that I connect with and read quickly or if it's going to be a slog.… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Save the Cat! Writes a Novel: Chapter One – Why Do We Care? Creating the Story-Worthy Hero by Jessica Brody

Book Review: A Witch’s Guide to Fake Dating a Demon by Sarah Hawley
Hey all, Sam here. I love getting to talk about books, but I continuously find myself living in places where I'm not around people who read with the same voraciousness I do, so I don't get to talk about what I'm reading or what I've read in my day-to-day life...aside from here on the blog.… Continue reading Book Review: A Witch’s Guide to Fake Dating a Demon by Sarah Hawley
