Hey all, Sam here. Several years ago, when I started getting to the point of reading 150 or so books a year, I realized it was absolutely awful for me to try and narrow that number of books down into a top ten list for the year. It was then that I decided to split… Continue reading My Top Ten Reads of 2025 (January-June Edition)
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
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. All right....well, honestly, October felt a bit more productive on the reading front, which was really nice. I still have a whole bunch of books I still want to read and need to read. This also means that I have a whole bunch of books that I'd still like to read… Continue reading October Wrap-Up
Hey all, Sam here. Well....August was another interesting reading month. It took a whole week for me to even have one completed book for the month. Overall, the number of reads for this month is actually pretty darn good. However, most of those reads were shorter or quicker reads: a handful of novellas, a couple… Continue reading August Wrap-Up
Hey all, Sam here. Yes, I know that today is the last day of July, and I normally would do my wrap-up posts on the 2nd or 3rd of the month.
