Poetic Musings
Thank you for taking this literary journey with me! Here I post personal thoughts on social issues, reflections about day-to-day living, and of course a healthy amount of stories inspired by the many games I’ve played over the years. I try to update several times a week, and genuinely appreciate the care and support of all who read these words, whether the post is fanciful or heartfelt.
The Where to Start page has great suggestions for first-time visitors, and all posts are sorted by the Categories you see in the right-side menu; feel free to narrow things down!

Charity (Run Concept)
Some runners are motivated by the money. Real talk, most all of them are. A lot of otherwise good people have passed on this one, but maybe you’re the right crew to be motivated by something other than the financials. A new combat drug hit the streets a few weeks ago,...
