Cover image via. When I started listening to NPR a few years ago, I never thought there would be a day where I just had to turn it off because I couldn’t bear to hear one more horrible thing about what’s happening in our country. I never thought I would go on Facebook and Twitter…

Cover photo art by Hayley Gilmore and is available for download along with her other designs! Thank you, Hayley! Well it’s been a bit of a week, I’d say. On Wednesday, January 18, I saw Hamilton in Chicago with my best friend. It’s hard to put the experience into words (without a lot of superlatives). After…

Cover image via. Banned books, particularly those by women of color, always seem to be the most beautiful. I have a long list of books to read on my Goodreads account, and when I was making my 2017 reading challenge, I decided it was high time I made a dent on that list. As I was…

Why yes, I did ring in the new year with tabletop RPG-ing. And yes, I know the photo is blurry. 2016 was a dumpster fire for most of the world.

Note: This overall blog is not intended to be political, but while I have a venue to share my personal thoughts, I’m going to take advantage of it with this post. I welcome civil and respectful discourse below, but trolls will not be tolerated. On Sunday I drove to Elwood, Indiana, a small town about…

Cover image via. The Legend of Zelda is my childhood, but not for the same reason as most of my peers. In 1992 when I was three years old, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past was released in the United States. Like many families, mine had a Super Nintendo. My dad liked video…

I’m not one to belabor seasons. As much as I love the warmth and long days of summer, I look forward to crisp leaves and the nip in the air that comes with fall. But as much as I’ve been looking forward to fall this year, it’s felt like a long time coming. September was more like…

Cover image via. I didn’t mean to be late to the Stranger Things party, but that’s just how things happened. Terry and I were binge-watching Wayward Pines on Hulu when Stranger Things was released on Netflix. The first thing I noticed is both shows are tied to the Duffer Brothers. Terry and I were really enjoying Wayward Pines, so when we finished…
