Writer, animal enthusiast, and dungeon master.
Hit a wall today during writing, so after messing with my music playlist for 20 minutes, went with the age old “ninjas attack” approach.
Which actually made me a write a scene, 3000 words, so I’ll take it.
Now to figure out how to work ninjas into the story. 😅

Replaying one of the best games of all time, and my writer brain is overflowing with new story ideas. (Dammit Ben, focus on the current project before starting a dozen new ones.)

i think my crankiest “i am approaching middle age” opinion these days is that IP shared universe franchises have not just been bad for the movies but bad for audiences to, in that they have basically trained them to treat story and character as secondary to LORE and EASTER EGGS
rediscovering on threads that star wars fanboys are the absolute worst. had someone literally say that because i have only been a star wars fan for 30 years, i do not understand how much dave filoni means to the fandom

I’ve given up alcohol, drugs, and am now trying to reduce my caffeine addiction. Next to go will be all fun and joy. Lord Baby Jesus, help me. 😬
