This Guy!

So it’s been a while, but I’m back. I’m finally getting back to releasing chapters of “A Rigorous Reprisal,” one of which comes out tomorrow, and I finally have a new post for this blog. So, yeah, things are looking good right now. This last week was pretty good in terms of bands I like: Cage The Elephant released a new single, as did Queens of the Stone Age. Mastodon has released their second…

Happy new year! 2024 was terrible! 2025 might not be as terrible! We shall see...

Last year was a rough year for me personally. I did say that 2024 was eventful, after all. My dad passed away early in May and I ended up getting laid off from my job a couple weeks after, which has left me unemployed up to this point. Fortunately, I do still have some savings left in my bank account but I’m going to need to find a new job soon if I want to keep this up. That’s kind of why I…

Pale Snowfall [22nd of July, 2762 AD; Inner Resting Forest, outside of Resting, Iiayikohn] As Vaughn journeyed deeper into the forest, he spotted a steel door at the bottom of the hill. That confirmed that he had made it to the hideout of the True Thekohnians just as he had been told. Everything was going just as Vaughn had planned and he needed Teodor Zima for the next phase of his plan. But…

She Who Holds the Seismic, Devastating Truth of an Ameci Magnate [22nd of July, 2762 AD; Aquamarine Hotel – Main Lobby, Aesker, Iiayikohn] The air felt just a tad thicker as Gen paced the floor of the main lobby. She knew that she had to tell somebody about what she had heard earlier, albeit unintentional. Gen knew this yet she pondered about who she could actually tell at this moment. Of…

We're back! For those unfamiliar, I am writing an ongoing web novel titled "A Rigorous Reprisal." This is chapter 14 where our main character Jericho meets with a couple of familiar faces. #writing #webnovel #webserial

I Am On Your Side [22nd of July, 2762 AD; North Iiayikohnian Detention Centre – Holding Cell No. 2, Aesker, Iiayikohn] Jericho viewed the empty cell across his as he waited for Nia to return. He arrived in cuffs late last night after the attacks had happened, where upon entry Jericho had been stripped of his possessions including his sword. With only the clothes he was wearing at the time,…

This has been a bit of an eventful year for me to say the least. Now, though, I feel like I’m finding some sort of groove when it comes to my writing. I’ll announce when the next chapter of “A Rigorous Reprisal” will go up, which will be very soon. But for now, I’m still plotting out the rest of this story. Video unrelated, but it’s from Jack White’s latest album which has quite a bit of White…

Well, it’s been a while, hasn’t it? I was on the fence if I wanted to keep making these kinds of posts, especially when I’ve got only so much to show for it. Still, I think that these posts are a good thing to go over what’s happened during the year. So, what’s happened? That new project of mine, “A Rigorous Reprisal,” began in September and is updating at least every two weeks. Sure, it’s a…
