Hey all, Sam here. Well, I guess it's time to talk about what I'm getting up to at Gen Con this year...and the answer is a whole bunch of panels (mostly at the Gen Con Writers Symposium). For those who don't know, Gen Con is a tabletop game convention. This year it is taking place… Continue reading Tabletop Tuesday: Gen Con 2024 Plans
Hey all, Sam here. Here we go...hopefully I'm starting to get the review train rolling down the tracks again. I have a few posts prepped already that I'm trying to finish writing and get scheduled, and then when I get my "weekend" again (which is Tuesday-Thursday) this week, I'll try to get my posts prepped… Continue reading Book Review: The Last Available by Sean R. Frazier
Hey all, Sam here. Once again, we have reached the beginning of a new month, and that means it's time for new Weekend Writer prompts! Eagle-eyed followers will know that this post was supposed to be up yesterday (AKA the first Friday of the month). I blame myself for that; I didn't prepare in advance… Continue reading Weekend Writer: June 2024 Prompts
Hey all, Sam here. I am so far behind on all of my book reviewing, and my book writing....and just life in general it feels like. Perhaps I shouldn't be so hard on myself, but I look back at the history of this blog to when I actually was posting like 10-12 posts each week… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Twelfth Knight by Alexene Farol Follmuth
Hey all, Sam here. It’s the start of a new month, and that means it’s time for more Weekend Writer prompts! As I mentioned in a previous post, I am making some changes to how this blog series works, mostly because I was spending so much time prepping and writing these weekly posts and it… Continue reading Weekend Writer: April 2024 Prompts
Hey all, Sam here. Welcome back to another installment of Weekend Writer. Much like I did last month, I'm doing a little deeper of a dive into this month's writing craft book. So, last week I did a general review of The 5 Sentence Method by Rebecca Thorne, and this week I'm actually trying out… Continue reading Weekend Writer: Trying out The 5 Sentence Method by Rebecca Thorne
Hey all, Sam here. I did say last week that this week was going to basically be all new release reviews. There were quite a few good books that released March 5th, and I was lucky enough to read three tabletop RPG related ones early. Like today's book, which I received a physical ARC in… Continue reading Book Review: Dungeons & Dragons: The Fallbacks: Bound for Ruin by Jaleigh Johnson
Hey all, Sam here. Here we are with another TTRPG related book review, and yes, I have another one for tomorrow as well. What can I say? This week was a good one for folks who want to read awesome role-playing game related books. I am definitely loving that we are getting more books in… Continue reading NetGalley Review: The No-Girlfriend Rule by Christen Randall
Hey all, Sam here. It honestly feels a little weird to be posting a Tabletop related post on a day that isn't Tuesday...but considering I have two Tabletop-centric books to talk about this week, I guess we're having this one as a Middle Grade Monday post instead. I have definitely been in a tabletop mood… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Table Titans Club by Scott Kurtz
Hey all, Sam here. I have been missing the fun of collaborative storytelling with dice around a table. For the entirety of our relationship, David and I have been avid tabletop rpg'ers, both in the game master seat and as players. So naturally I have been loving that we are getting more books where the… Continue reading NetGalley Review: Who We Are in Real Life by Victoria Koops
