This is long, so table of contents: The Origin of LitRPG As everyone knows by now, I'm a massive Solo Leveling fan. I've read the manhwa before the anime was ever announced and then reread it several times. Right now, with the anime release on Crunchyroll (we are up to 2 seasons), it is

Sookie, the old bulldog, has to have canned dog food in the wake of her surgery so her mouth can recover. She absolutely loves it. She gobbles it up, and then we suffer. Yesterday, as I was trying to catch up on a novella we are working on, because we need another release this year, Sookie was

The Story of Orc Dog
Before I tell you this story, I will say that everything ends happily. Sookie is our elderly Ye Olde English Bulldogge, otherwise knows as the orc dog. She is beauty, she is grace, how can you not love that face? She is going on 13 years old. Her hips and her knees have arthritis. She moves

Wednesday, Thursday, Hughday… Chapter 5: Part 1
Elara bent over the map, spread over the table. The herb patch… The berry bushes… The maples on the north side… A presence tugged on her. She raised her head. Hugh stood in the doorway. Alive. Uninjured. She let out a mental breath and straightened. “You’re back.” “I am.” His voice

Mod R presented me with a list of questions. Let us get to it. When will the preorder be availlable? We don't know. Well, that was easy. The usual MO is to wait until the cover is done because people tend to preorder in higher numbers once the cover is up. Maybe having the cover is proof that

The Coziest Keyboard Ever
I built the coziest keyboard ever. You might remember that earlier I was looking for a better keyboard. Whenever I searched for a keyboard, I always ended up with the gaming keyboards. HyperX. Razer. Black, lots of RGB, that type of thing. I've tried ergonomic keyboards, I've tried unorthodox

A Happy Cardigan
Despite my best efforts, I finally managed to make a cardigan. I bought this really cute yarn last year. This is Rainbows and Airwaves from Bad Sheep Yarn. It is a gorgeous yarn, so I wanted to make a fun cardigan with it. I usually make stuff for the kids, but I wanted something for myself

Eternal Strands
If you liked roleplaying computer games in the early 2000s, you knew that Bioware was synonymous with cool games. The studio started out as a Canadian game developer and made some awesome things. Baldur's Gate. Mass Effect. Dragon Age. Eventually they were bought by EA and went downhill. Apparently,

A Dirty Betrayal
Not long ago, I made this blanket for Kid 2. It was made with Stylecraft DK yarn. I don't really care for acrylic normally. If you ever felt a skein of Red Heart, it's rough and scratchy and it kills my hands. But Stylecraft, although it is acrylic, is buttery soft, cloud-like, and shiny, and

Popeye Turkey
Normally we don't do posts on Saturday, but US Thanksgiving is right around the corner and this is time sensitive. Every Thanksgiving, we get a Cajun turkey from Popeyes. It is cooked and requires thawing and then warming up in the oven. The turkey is delicious and moist and saves us a lot of
