Hey all, Sam here. Okay, let's try this again. I had ideas and plans for getting back into writing and getting back into blogging, and feeling like the old me again. But not even two weeks into the new year and my father-in-law was in the ICU and it wasn't looking good, and then a… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Back To Basics (and Prompts)

Goals for 2023
Hey all, Sam here. Okay, so I guess today is going to be sort of a shorter post compared to my last ones. But I think it's important to take some time to at least have a rough plan or idea for the year ahead, so I'm going to do that now. Reading For reading,… Continue reading Goals for 2023

Life Updates
Hey all....Sam here. Wow, it kind of feels weird to open with my actual name instead of the pen name I've used online for something like 18 years.

D&D Review: Roll & Play: The Game Master’s Fantasy Toolkit by Sam Bartlett
Hey all, Dani here. You know, when I planned today's book review, I wasn't originally thinking about the fact that it is a Dungeons & Dragons based review, which is silly, because I bought the book to be used by myself and our group's other Dungeon Masters for session planning. But, I guess this does… Continue reading D&D Review: Roll & Play: The Game Master’s Fantasy Toolkit by Sam Bartlett

Colorworld Readalong – Book One Schedule
Hey all, Dani here. I'm going to be honest...I feel wonderfully obsessed at the moment and it is actually invigorating and making me feel like I can do amazing things.
