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
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
Hey all, Sam here. All right, well today we have another post that I had about 95% of the way drafted before leaving for Gen Con. I couldn't completely finish it until yesterday, just in case I managed to squeeze in a little extra reading or writing time. Tonight David and I are going to… Continue reading July Wrap-Up
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
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. We have made it halfway through the year! Somehow we have survived half of this year. At times it has absolutely been a struggle, but here we are, still trying to keep going. This has been such a difficult year already, and I know a lot of us are concerned about… Continue reading June Wrap-Up
Hey all, Sam here. All right, well we have finished the first week of the PaWriCo Bookish Bootcamp, and I figured it would be a nice time to check-in and give a breakdown of how my week went for this whole challenge. Some days are a little more active than others, but I tried to… Continue reading PaWriCo Bookish Bootcamp June 20-26 Check-In
Hey all, Sam here. I need to get back to writing and creativity. It has felt EXTRA hard for the past 7-8 months, although it has been pretty difficult for the past two years. I keep wanting to tell my stories and to get them down on the page, and they've been simmering in my… Continue reading PaWriCo Bookish Bootcamp
