This past Sunday saw my first attempt to run a Call of Cthulhu game. I’ve run a few horror games before, but this was our first time delving into the the actual CoC system (7th edition in fact). And I’ll freely admit this is more of a test than a full on, long running campaign, just a little tale about a zombie outbreak in a tourist mecca at the height of tourist season that may or...
“I knew that getting inside the Providence was not a simple task, but I had no idea that it involved two hours of trekking through old drainage tunnels and part of the active sewer; it even involved sliding down a dislodged drain pipe using a rope. I learned from Jacob, one of the urbex guys, that all the manholes around the building itself had been welded shut, and all of the adjoining...
Plans evolve and change at an almost daily rate sometimes, and that holds especially true with my goals here. Work and home life seem to take up more and more time, even as I make efforts to try and cut back on my other hobbies to focus on this site. My weekends literally evaporate before I can get anything done. I honestly don’t know where the Saturday before last went, and this three...
“I don’t know what it is about that building that draws my attention so much…it’s like it’s always nagging in the back of my brain, and I find myself going out of my way to drive by just to catch a glimpse of it from the freeway. It’s old, built in the 1920s, back when nobody had a clue that the bottom was going to fall out of the stock market in a few years. ...
I’ve spent quite a bit of time with the Resident Evil 2 remake over the past week, and I am pleased to report that it is an absolutely amazing game. Having been a massive fan of the original (the first RE game I played, in fact), I can say with all honesty that I am totally pleased with how this remake came out. Well, aside from that one thing… But, as far as the game itself, the core...
Just throwing up this quick little update here. Ran into a few stumbling blocks over the last couple weeks, but hopefully I’ll be getting back on track properly and get caught up with the supposedly weekly world/campaign-building exercises, and get started properly on additional content. Basically, I’ve been having a series of laser eye treatments related to some diabetic...
I couldn’t remain strong…I broke my rule of not paying over $20 for a game and got the Resident Evil 2 Remake. I just couldn’t resist the temptation. Loved the original so much, just had to give this one a try. That being said, I have only played like 10 minutes of the game, which looks amazing and seems like an incredible experience. Probably won’t get to play too much...
So, I suppose it’s time for a confession of sorts. Some of you may be familiar with my race of cat girls and boys that I’ve used in various pieces of fiction and online RP over the years, the Kerryn. They’ve been around for quite a long time now, and I have more than a few characters that I am most intimately familiar with, and many more minor kerryn characters that fill the...
YouTube…the great distraction. Probably my most fearsome enemy when it comes to writing at all. I can’t count how many times I’ve said to myself “I’ll just watch a few vids and hit the keyboard”, and then by the time I realize what’s happened, hours have passed and it’s time for bed. Years ago, I never had that kind of problem. Then again, years...
And it is always a struggle to write, especially these days. Seems like no matter what I do, I can’t find the time. So, in the coming months, the goal is to make the time, and hopefully this page will be a part of that. Here I hope to keep track of not only the myriad characters, worlds, and stories currently bouncing around in my head, but also to just get some thoughts out there in...
