Hey all, Sam here. Somehow we're nearing the end of this writing habit challenge. I think overall it has been a productive challenge for me, but I still absolutely admit that I could have done better towards my goals. My final update will be next week (while I'm at Gen Con, so that's extra fun).… Continue reading PaWriCo Bookish Bootcamp July 18-24 Check-In
Hey all, Sam here. Four weeks down, two weeks to go. I think this is the longest I've been able to stick with a writing challenge in quite a while, even if I feel like I could be doing a bit better. Well, with another week completed, I guess it's time to look back on… Continue reading PaWriCo Bookish Bootcamp July 11-17 Check-In
Hey all, Sam here. Wow, all right, so we are already halfway through this Bookish Bootcamp that focuses on writing skills and wellness drills. I think I could probably be doing a little better with it, but I'm still meeting my goals, so I'll consider it to be a decent writing progress anyway. Well, with… Continue reading PaWriCo Bookish Bootcamp July 4-10th Check-In
Hey all, Sam here. Coming to the end of June, it's time to look forward to July and all the fantastic books coming out that I'm looking forward to adding to my shelves.

Hey all, Sam here. Welcome back to another fiction focused Tabletop Tuesday, because yes, I have read yet another book where one of the main focuses of the story is all the characters playing TTRPGs together. I'm starting to see a whole bunch more of these types of books coming out, and honestly, I want… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Roll for Romance by Lenora Woods
Hey all, Sam here. I definitely meant to have this post up on Tuesday, but we had a huge storm come through and we lost power for a good portion of the day. Then Wednesday we were doing the final bits of prep work for a downtown market we vend David's 3d prints at, and… Continue reading May Wrap-Up
Hey all, Sam here. You know, I haven't done a Tabletop Tuesday post in a little while, and I might try to start getting back to that with a couple tabletop posts a month because David and I have two rather solid D&D groups going right now and I'd love to talk about that more,… Continue reading NetGalley Review: The Last Session Graphic Novel by Jasmine Walls, Dozerdraws, and Micah Myers
Hey all, Sam here. In a very weird timely coincidence, today I am posting the review for this book...and tonight my friends and I are going to be sitting around the gaming table taking on Strahd. Wish us luck. Hopefully the dice are on our side for the next couple of sessions (because we already… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Dungeons & Dragons: Ravenloft: Heir of Strahd by Delilah S Dawson
Hey all, Sam here. Wow, well we are already finished with another month, which is always an interesting experience. This year continues to somehow both drag so slowly while also speeding past. Like, how are we already in the fourth month of the year? But also, how has it ONLY been three full months so… Continue reading March Wrap-Up
Hey all, Sam here. I started this blog back in January 2016, which means that this year is my 10th year of doing this, which feels incredibly wild to me. Without a doubt I can say that 2019 and 2020 were the best years of the blog, and the most prolific. I miss being able… Continue reading My Top Ten Posts (So Far)
