Book Review: Bookshops & Bonedust by Travis Baldree

Hey all, Sam here. Yep, I fell off my schedule again. This post was definitely meant to go up about a week ago. I'm sorry. I keep seeing my dozen partially written up drafts and then basically freezing up and not finishing any of them. Somehow I need to figure out how to actually get… Continue reading Book Review: Bookshops & Bonedust by Travis Baldree

October Wrap-Up

Hey all, Sam here. Well, I was supposed to have this up yesterday, but I didn't get it finished in time. I'll blame the time change messing with my sleep schedule. Once again we've reached the start of a new month, meaning it is time to look back at the just completed month and see… Continue reading October Wrap-Up

Book Review: Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree

Hey all, Sam here. It should not take reading a book four times to get a review written up....and yet here I am, a couple years late, finally getting a review written up and posted here. Clearly I enjoy this book. I've read it multiple times (and I own several copies). But I still want… Continue reading Book Review: Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree

Weekend Writer: Writing Update

Hey all, Sam here. I have not had much to say around here when it comes to writing progress. I wish I had a better answer than saying that life keeps getting in the way. But sometimes that's just what it is. I wanted to participate in the Write Brave Challenge and try outlining up… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Writing Update

September Wrap-Up

Hey all, Sam here. Today is the premiere of Critical Role Campaign 4, and I am so very excited to watch it tonight. Trying to get through the rest of the hours until then is going to be a struggle. David and I might play a little more of the current season of Diablo 4… Continue reading September Wrap-Up

August Wrap-Up

Hey all, Sam here. So, I had originally planned to have this released on September 2nd. You know, close to the beginning of the month like I do with pretty much all of my wrap-ups. The only thing I had left to do was this little intro section. But work was exhausting on Aug 31… Continue reading August Wrap-Up

Gen Con 2025 Wrap-Up

Hey all, Sam here. So, I wanted to have this post up last week, but the first two days we were home from the convention, I had to work, and then on my days off, I couldn't get the cats off my lap (because they wanted me to make up for several days of missing… Continue reading Gen Con 2025 Wrap-Up

PaWriCo Bookish Bootcamp July 25-July 31 Check-In

Hey all, Sam here. It's the final check in (I totally just thought those words to the melody of "Final Countdown" -- I was in marching band for too many years; that was a standard stand tune). Today is also my birthday, so hopefully as this post goes live, I'm having a great day, but… Continue reading PaWriCo Bookish Bootcamp July 25-July 31 Check-In
