I can't believe I've been doing this nine months already. But yep, the other day I tipped over the 100 followers benchmark, and that seemed like a fitting time to reflect on my blogging journey so far. I want to talk about how things have changed and what I've learned since I started this in… Continue reading 9 Months, 100 Followers and 70 Posts Later…

A Blogging Announcement
It's okay, nobody panic, I'm not going anywhere. But I've noticed in the last couple weeks that I'm feeling a bit... thin on the ground for ideas when it comes to blogging. Earlier in the year, I frequently had a dozen or so blog posts queued up and ready to go. Now, sometimes I'm rushing… Continue reading A Blogging Announcement
A Minecraft Tale
In the past I've enjoyed reading AARs (After-Action Reports). They're blog write-ups of someone's playthrough of a game. Sometimes they're even more fun than actually playing.

The Grand (Castle) Tour!
Hey folks and happy saturday! What a month it's been so far, huh? I certainly didn't see this coming on the 1st of March. Which was, by my recollection, about three years ago now. At least it feels that way. Anyway, the longest month in history is officially coming to an end, so you'll see… Continue reading The Grand (Castle) Tour!
