On April 1st, 2014, one of that year’s most unexpected video game hits released: Goat Simulator. “What does this have to do with writing and reading?” Just trust me.
Apologies for this post being a little late today, but I wanted to get some other writing stuff done first. This week has been … chaotic.
But now it’s here. So then, what’s that title all about?
Well, I’d be lying if I said there wasn’t a bit of self-serving logic behind this. Because, after all, I am an author, and yes, I do like to see support!
Okay guys, this is cool. Yesterday I was alerted via Reddit to a feature of Goodreads I was not aware of: The “Your Year in Books” feature.
Okay, so the Hugo Award winners were announced, and there’ve been a few questions of what I’d have to say about it. So here we go. My response?
And?
Fair warning from the start: This post is going to address that beast, politics, and talk about it a little. Probably not in the way most of you expect, but it is going to address it. So fair warning, this might be messy. But I’m pulling no punches and diving right in.
Hey writers! Got a short post for you today. Yesterday, after I wrapped up Being a Better Writer and started on some chores I had to take care of, I finally put on a video that had been sitting in my watch-later queue for quite some time and was immediately struck by the lessons in the video that apply to writing.
So about two weeks ago I wrote a post concerning some of The Last Jedi‘s flaws and how they could have been fixed.
I was five when I saw Terminator 2: Judgement Day for the first time. Maybe six. Somewhere around there. My dad rented it on a VHS tape and watched it and let me sit there and watch it too.
My mother was horrified, which is a whole ‘nother story that from my perspective is pretty funny.
Now there’s a title that could mean a lot of things, couldn’t it? Don’t worry, the meaning will be clear soon enough. I had some thoughts I wanted to share, and an OP-ED piece felt like the best route.
Okay, first up, all the pictures in this post are going to be hidden behind the jump. There’s not even a featured image for this one, despite me having ten pictures of my wrist at the ready for the post. Why?
I didn’t plan on making this post today, but then I saw the news and some social media from friends and family, hit a quick Google search because I was reminded of something … and well … Here we are. It’s definitely political in its own way, so far warning, but there’s a moral of its own by the end.
Hello readers! Just a quick thought post here to finish off the month. A sort of combination “look back” along with some thoughts on things.
So by now, if you’ve got your focus enough on the book industry that you’ve got a decent feel for the pulse, you’ve probably heard a little about Amélie Wen Zhao. If not, well, here’s the basics of it.
Good news! I am 99.5% better. Just some residual tiredness and stuffiness, but fading fairly well. Huzzah! Today I can work on A Game of Stakes!
But first I wanted to get this out there: Keep calm, be patient, and think.
Life has been … chaotic lately. That’s why there haven’t been as many posts on other topics outside of Being a Better Writer.
Hey there, readers. I hope you’re having a good weekend! Mine is looking up. I’ve got some writing to do today (when do I not, right?), but before I dove into it, I really wanted to get a quick post up on some recent news items that have hit recently.
It’s time for round two, folks, and Overdrive has come out swinging and swinging hard!
