So the YouTube algorithm recently recommended this channel to me called Retroflow 1985. It’s a guy in Germany who puts out these synthwave music videos, with AI-generated artwork (and probably AI-generated music) that feels like it could have come out of the 1980s (hence the term “synthwave”). I’m not a huge synthwave fan, but I… Continue reading Just for fun: Retroflow 1985

My life is CRAZY right now
Oh my heck. How can I count the ways? My writing computer crashed yesterday. Upgraded to Ubuntu 16.04, and it crashed again this morning. I think I have a fix, but only time will tell.

Publishing is as easy as the Irish Tinwhistle
David Gaughran has another excellent blog post up, this time about publishing in general and something that most newbies don’t realize when they first start out.

Hey! Are you an aspiring writer / artist / creative whatever?
If you are, you really really really need to check out this webcomic about the three jaguars. It’s about the three main voices in every professional artist’s head, and how they bicker and play off of each other. As someone whose been in the writing business for a few years, I can say that it’s… Continue reading Hey! Are you an aspiring writer / artist / creative whatever?

Trope Tuesday: It Has Been an Honor
If there ever was a phrase that invoked manly tears, it’s this one. “It has been an honor” is pretty much the go-to catch phrase for any Heroic Sacrifice or Bolivian Army Ending. It’s often a precursor to a Crowning Moment of Awesome, and as far as last words go, it ranks right up there… Continue reading Trope Tuesday: It Has Been an Honor
