Nerdcast Ep. 63, featuring…ME!
I was invited to come on a local YouTube channel and talk about gaming and other nerdy stuff. I had a great time chatting with Dan and Chelsea, so thank-you to Northern Nerd for having me. If you’d like to listen to me ramble, or put a voice to what you read in my posts,…

Trail Rations: Beef Stew on Trenchers
It’s been a while since I’ve done a Trail Rations post, but as I head in to 2017 I’ve taken it upon myself to cook more meals at home, as opposed to eating out or ordering in. Since game sessions are a huge culprit in my fast-food habit, I’m rededicating myself to cooking at home…

The Watchlist: Girls’ Game Shelf
I’m always on the lookout for nerdy things to watch, and one of my favourites are play-through shows. Once upon a time they were few and far between. Now, with how easy it is to record and upload to the Webz, there are a plethora of shows of varying quality from which to choose. This…

The Ordinary Life of a GM: Getting Lost
In what I’m hoping to make a regular occurrence, I’m taking part in the November RPG Blog Carnival. This month’s topic is Ordinary Life, and there is enough material there that I’ll likely have a few more posts this month around this topic. But today I’m talking about game masters. Getting Lost and Coming Back…
