A few months ago someone in the comments on this blog recommended Nightingale, a new survival fantasy game that had just hit Early Access on Steam. In the game, humans encountered the Fae during the Victorian Age and learned to access the Realms, pocket worlds that could be travelled to via portals. Some worlds were

A Stop at Quincy’s
Happy Monday. I hope things are going well for you this Monday. If not, I have a place I would like to share with you. It’s a nice point to stop when you travel the Multiverse. You can find Quincy’s tavern on Facebook, TikTok, or Youtube, although Youtube mostly has compilations.
My Starfield Review So Far
I should preface this review by stating that I’ve been under a bit of a non-immediate family stress. Starfield, a new RPG from Bethesda, which brought us Skyrim and Fallout, is out in a few days, and I have early access because I splurged on the deluxe edition. The reviews are ranging widely, and I

The Dead Brain and the Immortal Life
Personal ramblings, nothing book related. I think I might be really tired. Normally I’m an idea factory. I generate plots and ideas randomly, sometimes at ridiculous speed or during inappropriate times. 99% of them never see the light of day. I have an entire trilogy plotted about a merchant and a gladiator set in a

A Wicked Cool Flat
Remember my addiction to renovation shows? Well, there is a game called House Flipper where you get to take dilapidated houses and renovate them. I bought it a couple of years ago, and in the middle of my renovation marathon, I fired it up. I want to show you my awesome renovation work. I bought

Long Week, Factories, and Kids
A terribly busy week. We wrote Ryder on Monday and Tuesday, and then on Wednesday, after a discussion with Avon, a decision was made to write Arabella’s very short story bribe. By the way, thank you to all of the OB-GYN who responded. We got our two experts, but we deeply appreciate your help. We

Computer games?
So I tried to write a post about our lives and I deleted it because everything seems to be sucking right now. I’ve vented to Jeaniene Frost yesterday and told her that I haven’t written anything for a while, and she said, “I can’t imagine why. Your life is so zen, like a little green

Rainy Day Ramblings
It’s raining. It will rain really hard for a few minutes, then slack off, then rain again. I have my tea. Awhile ago I’ve made the decision to get my news from the actual news sources rather than social media, because with the social media you get a wallop of outrage with the news, and

YouTube Videos: Get to the F*ing Monkey
Some days a reasonable cup of tea with a single tea bag is enough. And some days, like today, you open a tin of good Ceylon tea a friend sent you and make the whole tea pot. Today is that day for many reasons. Now I shall rant. As you know, I’ve been working on

Models Picked
Yesterday we finalized our choices of models for Blood and Magic. Today we are editing. Nothing is happening. We are just editing. And editing. And editing. Been playing Subnautica, but I have already put so much into it, it’s a bit of a slog. It’s mighty pretty though. Also I build a huge base and

Oxygen Not Included
So I checked the news. Everything sucks. We’re going to do escapism this morning. First, Wildfire is on sale for $1.99 at Bookbub. Second, I found a new game. The game is still in early access stage on steam, so there are bugs they are still working out and some game mechanics might change, but

Comfort gaming
So, I’ve been playing Empyrion, which I enjoyed very much, but I am kind of getting fed up with it. I really want a feel good game, something pretty, possibly even cute. Something like Stardew Valley or Recettear. Failing that, I’d love something absorbing. Middle Earth: Shadow of War is coming out, and I’m excited
