About This Blog

 I have, very casually, maintained this blog since somewhere around high school.  Twenty odd years.  And in that time, it has transformed considerably.  It started as a journal where I recorded thoughts that were not worth keeping.  Later, it became a record of broad creative and personal projects that went nowhere.  Some of which were mirrored on my now long dead Geocities site.  In the past half decade or so, I wrote a handful of dream journal entries and shifted my focus to more fictional scribbling.  Again, nothing of great consequence.  I guess I like some of them.  Maybe you will too.  Last year, I fully transitioned to short fiction and actual play fiction (records of both mechanical and narrative playthroughs of roleplaying games).  I think I'm content to leave it at that, really.  I am making things at my own pace.  Which is, to be clear, glacial.


So, what is this blog now?

This blog hosts my haphazard short fiction writing and a place to store records of roleplaying game experiences.  I am not (currently, if ever) a serious writer.  But if you're here, somehow, I hope you find something useful or fun.  The categories across the navigation bar:


  • About is where I'll post about this blog.  These posts are also called Greymatter posts, for searching.  And because that's what I called them for a long time before changing it to About (which is a more useful term).
  • Snippets are scraps and fragments of fiction, little evocative ideas or throwaway writing gathered in clusters.
  • Shorts are short fiction.  Maybe they'll be whole short stories and maybe they'll be longer than snippets but not long enough to be considered a whole story.
  • Serials are clusters of collected shorts belonging to the same narrative series.
  • Sessions are actual play fiction.  These'll probably usually be records of solo games.

A note on formatting: It took me a minute to get things where I found them visually acceptable.  Some older posts (there aren't many) won't have the same visual layout as the newer ones.  Moving forward, the posts will start to fall in line.
