AJs Voices

AJ and I have made a decision that we will be moving themindofnox.com to our own self hosted blog. We aren’t moving this content. We are going to add new content on the site. Right now you can find the new content at https://themindofnox.netlify.app. Eventually when we’ve a bit more content we’ll move the domain there. This one will be come https://themindofnox.wordpress.com and be an archive of…

So AJ’s been pretty big on creating her own TTRPG. It’s called Tag and Tally. Most of my bios now include a character sheet made for Tag and Tally since the point of the system was to let me have special abilities but built into the system that anyone can use to be great and awesome. AJ’s published the first version in print so she could give to the family so they could read it. It’s not the…

My blog has been alive for ten years today AJ and I have been thinking about how we could bring the blog back. We were thinking maybe a world building project. Something quick and easy to do in a day. Design my city I live in. While that would be fun for us. Would it be fun for you? If you have any thoughts let us know.

We won’t be doing that series. AJ didn’t get any writing done in September and definitely don’t think we can keep the pace to do it this month on the drop of a hat, so not gonna happen. AJ is working on a new rendition of my story, we are in the planning stages and we will attempt to write in November as part of what was formerly NaNoWriMo. There are a lot of things taking place this fall for…

So AJ decided on a name of the series we hope to be posting for the next little while. It is The Curse Between Us. We’ve also decided that the first episode which will consist of 20 posts is called Echoes in the Tunnel. AJ spent a little time working on a banner cover for the series:

So AJ decided that instead of writing a new ‘novel’ story we were going to bring you a The Mind of Nox exclusive story. All ‘chapters’ will be posted here, in order probably unedited to any major degree. It will be a serial story. We have 20 posts planned for each episode. And I think there are 20 episodes in the overall story if we decide to go that far. Alex and I will be soul-bound cursed…

I know I haven’t been consistent in my posting in a long while. But today was a cool milestone 50K views over all time. That’s since January of 2016. Can’t beat those first few years with the Daily Post hosted by WordPress itself. I’m trying to think of a way to pull in people and tell more stories without bogging AJ down. Writing isn’t going well with the new schedule and the addition of a new…

I haven’t updated in a while. My bad. Or rather AJs bad. Alex and I got a fresh little story of an aspiring rockstar back home in his small town. It’s not a perfect finish to the story but we at least got a happy for now moment. AJs been working on a new world and new game mechanics based on the Story Mode stuff I last shared. We have a bunch of rules and notes. And AJ’s currently working on…

So I told you all about the app AJ used. Well it’s been cleaned up and it’s currently found at here for anyone to use. It uses a series of Oracle and checks based on a Scene Status. There are two tables, which basically are the same thing the oracle being a DC of 15. Ands always help you, and But’s should hinder you in some way. The Scene Status is based on a similar mechanism to the Cypher…

AJ has been itching to do some fun easy sketches of me and Alex in a random sort of way. I think she’s got the perfect things already started and just needs to modify it a little bit for the intended purpose. So yet another clone of https://generators.just-us.net her little app she made for automating some of her rolls. It’s called Story Mode and it was very cute situation. It was fun. Let me…

Apparently today marks 9 years in my blogging. Wow! Too bad I’ve not been actively trying to keep it going all those 9 years. But we’ve been trying. AJ’s thinking about give us a little more me and Alex and less urban fantasy. Though we haven’t completely bailed on it. We might do an alternate Nox and Alex in my world where we focus on the romance arc and not the whole ascension thing. But you…

AJ read the Glitter short from several years ago and got to feeling. I really like this guy. So AJ spent some time hunting for the original documents for the story. She found the original markdown docs, the converted to word, and then imported them into Dabble only to realize she was on the wrong Dabble account and they were already there… So AJ deleted that document and then reorganized the…
