The Return of Two-Score Tenpence

The D&D campaign my friend’s been preparing has finally begun! I’ve been taking copious notes and, obviously, trying to steer our band of merry adventurers toward ever more bizarre antics.

Flesh Wounds

Its been a little bit since I posted here. I’ve been a little busy with Thanksgiving and some other stuff, but I’ve got a little bit of stuff ready anyway.

A Chance Beginning

My friend Brendan is streaming every day this week at Noon EST, taking about writing prose, screenplays, and pretty much anything else to do with putting words in order. Check him out live at Accidental Origin on Twitch, or watch his VODs on Twitch or YouTube.

More Bardish Nonsense

I can’t help but over prepare anything I do, so, naturally I started writing as many limericks as I could to give flavour to my spells and songs. I only know a little bit about some of the other characters, so I thought I’d start with some PC specific stuff and work from there.
