It should have been a sports weekend for the ages. In practice? Not so much. brycemoore.com/blog/super-b...
Super Bowl and Olympic Extravaganza?
I was really looking forward to this last weekend, from a sports perspective. With the Opening Ceremonies and the Super Bowl on the same weekend, I thought it was a lock for some memorable watching…

Murderbot was a fun sci-fi show (as long as you don't mind the occasional decapitation). brycemoore.com/blog/tv-revi...
TV Review: Murderbot
AppleTV really has a great track record for shows. They’re not all home runs, but they’re a platform that has a lot of really solid offerings, so much so that I’ll sometimes watch…

It’s gotten so that I view physical therapy as about as useful as spreadsheets, and if you know me, you know that’s high praise indeed. brycemoore.com/blog/done-wi...
Done with Another Round of Physical Therapy
I just finished another prolonged series of physical therapy sessions. This one stretched back to my last trip to Disney World, where I got to the point with my back that it was just hurting so muc…

Two more books on the way from yours truly! One next year, and one the year after. brycemoore.com/blog/two-mor...
Two More Bryce Moore Books on the Horizon
It’s finally official! I signed a contract last week with Sourcebooks for two more books. What does that mean? It means, if things go according to plan, I should have another book out next ye…

It's not often I post video game reviews on my blog, but it's also not often I love a game as much as I loved Expedition 33. brycemoore.com/blog/video-g...
Video Game Review: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
I don’t stay as up to date on video games these days as I used to. Time usually just gets in the way. So I’ve got a few franchises I like to play, but for the most part my attention get…

Take one part Mary Poppins and mix it equally with Pixar's Cars movie. Add a great soundtrack and a heaping T of Bruckheimer swagger, and you've got F1. It was a lot of fun. brycemoore.com/blog/movie-r...
Movie Review: F1
I’ve been meaning to watch F1, the new Brad Pitt movie about race cars, for quite some time. I hadn’t really read anything specifically about it, but I’d picked up good buzz aroun…

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the final season of Stranger Things. brycemoore.com/blog/the-end...
The End of Stranger Things
I’d been looking forward to Season 5 of Stranger Things as soon as Season 4 finished. It’s a show I’ve loved from the very beginning. (I’ve even helped teach a college cours…

After the Minneapolis shooting, I found myself thinking about a 1940s essay by C.S. Lewis—and what it says about why we’re talking past each other today. This is me trying to think through that connection. brycemoore.com/blog/after-t...
After the Minneapolis Shooting: When We Lose a Shared Moral Language
I was lying in bed last night trying to figure out what to read next, and I ultimately settled on a new (to me) book by CS Lewis: The Abolition of Man. I’ve long admired Lewis for his ability…

In historical fiction, the devil is often in the details. Unfortunately, sometimes the hardest part is figuring out exactly which details matter, especially if you don't even think of them in the first place. brycemoore.com/blog/the-joy...
The Joys of Historical Fiction
Hey! Remember me? I’m through the holidays officially now, and so I should be back at the blog more regularly. There’s a ton I could write about today, but instead, I’m just going…

If you're going to be in the Bangor area tomorrow, you should 100% come and see me. I mean, I'll be a captive audience from 10am-3:30pm. And if you should happen to buy a book or five while you're there? All the better! brycemoore.com/blog/come-se...
Come See Me in Bangor
If you’re local, come on out to the Bangor Public Library tomorrow (Saturday 12/13) from 10-3:30 and say hi at the Bangor Authors’ Book Fair. I’ve never done this event before, so…

While I was out in Utah at Dragonsteel Nexus, I had a chance to watch Brandon Sanderson deliver his keynote address on the opening night. His topic? Can AI Be Art? Here’s the video of the eve…

Some weeks are crazier than others. This week? It's been a bit of a doozy, 7 hours of Zoom meetings today, and then I should be kind of sort of done with it? brycemoore.com/blog/its-bee...
It’s Been a Week
Sorry there hasn’t been much coming out of me in terms of posts this week. It’s been . . . a pretty long week. It started off with a minor crisis over the weekend that culminated in a f…

Adventures in Boston
BYU was going to play basketball against UConn over the weekend at TD Garden (the same place the Celtics play). UConn’s a perennially good basketball team, and this year is supposed to be a g…

Daniela was gone for the evening on Monday, so Denisa and I were looking for something to watch with Michaela. She’s been branching out into things that are a bit more intense (emphasis on &#…

Where’s the Halloween Music?
Here at the library, we started playing music in the Coffee Bar around a year or so ago. The university has a subscription to Sirius (though it doesn’t have all the channels), and it made sen…

I miss the old days, when a horrific event or decision by the government came around only once in a while, and I had the time to really try to keep up with it all. On the plus side, at least I got to use a good CS Lewis excerpt from The Last Battle today. brycemoore.com/blog/some-cu...
Some Current Thoughts on Life
It’s been a bit since I wrote anything about politics or the state of the world in general. That’s definitely not because I don’t have strong feelings about all of it. It’s …
