A few housekeeping bits first and foremost! I’ve neglected this site (and Passable Media) for a long time now, and while the PM side isn’t going to change for now, I’ve decided to temporarily private all of my old posts on here and use it for Little Denham updates for the time being. Old posts […]
I was thinking about doing Camp NaNoWriMo in April, but I’ve decided to just trundle along at my own pace instead. So far it’s been a year of plans not quite coming together: I haven’t been doing much of anything towards Passable Media, and while I’m happy with The Lost Tales and am super thrilled […]
Somehow I did it. I was aiming for 50,000 words and I hit that target. Then I was aiming to finish all of the short stories and I did that too. I ended on 65,091 words, with the second-last day seeing The Prince of Time just somehow fall into place in my head. I’m more […]

It’s worth considering that I do this largely for fun; the conversations I’m having in […]

And now the segue: I’m a big fan of a Youtube series called Death Battle. It’s a snazzy series that pits two characters from different […]
I’ve been in IT Support in one form or another for my entire working life. Even in jobs where it wasn’t the reason I was originally employed, eventually the role has become IT focused for two reasons: 1) I’m good at it, 2) there’s always a need for it. There are exceptions, of course; some […]
