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!

Covert Ops: Firing Line
Whatever else can be said about the cartel, they certainly had a lot of muscle. I didn't give much thought to the body-count we'd already made during our stay in South America, but in the approach to the executive manor where the rebel leaders finally had...
Conquest: Higher Learning
Most of my tutelage under Tunon had been in libraries, great halls lined with books and scrolls detailing the laws, rules, and regulations of life in Kyros' empire. Years spent in those musty rooms did not prepare me for the acrid and heavy fumes I found within the...
Kicking the Tires (Run Idea)
Word has come down the pipe that the new Renraku Sabre R5 not only meets but exceeds design specs. Jammed full of sensors to feed the hyper-aware AI pilotsoft, it also boasts a supremely-rugged chassis that can handle stresses most street cars can't, and a dual-input...
