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!

Annals (Run Concept)
It’s a funny thing—ever since the first Matrix people have been saying “there aren’t mysteries anymore.” Ignoring the fact that there are entire universities and trillion-dollar companies focused on plumbing the depths of our ignorance, just because something is...
