Returning to the mound

I’ve talked about this series a few times before, and it even made my top 10 anime of all time list, so I’m not going to write another essay about it. But with a new season of Ace of Diamond on the horizon, I wanted to quickly go over the show again and explain why … Continue reading Returning to the mound →

Vol 5: Chapter 10 – Musical Madness

Hi friends. When I started writing chapter 9, I hadn’t fully worked out what to do for chapter 10 yet, so I introduced Kimi to the story again, which was always the plan. It wasn’t until after I finished that chapter and started writing this one that I realized a much better way to introduce … Continue reading Vol 5: Chapter 10 – Musical Madness →

The tragic fall of Arlong Park

I originally watched one episode of the Live Action for One Piece and wrote it off as something that simply wasn’t for me. With a second season coming out the other day, some of my friends convinced me to watch the new season with them, and in preparation I ended up binging the entire first … Continue reading The tragic fall of Arlong Park →

Vol 5: Chapter 9 – Reinforcements

Captain Arios had a worried look on his face. Dealing with mercenaries and members of the Sahilid order was well within his skillset and he’d dealt with some strange folks over the years. Being confronted by the holy order of Owlana was a different story. Not to mention they seemed to be accompanied by a … Continue reading Vol 5: Chapter 9 – Reinforcements →

A silent voice

Trigger warning: Suicide / Depression As someone who was bullied for being different when I was a child, I have an understandable soft spot for stories about the subject of bullying. That doesn’t mean every bullying story will click with me, as it's still a painful subject to this day. I look at some of … Continue reading A silent voice →

I hope to finish chapter 9 by next week, but if not, we'll take next week … Continue reading Vol 5: Chapter 8 – The first delve →

Vol 5: Chapter 7 – A decision made

Crawling out of the dungeon entrance came a monstrosity that would likely haunt the present soldiers’ dreams for centuries to come. Though that would only be the case if they were able to dodge its fangs bearing down on them. Mirgia was quick to react, having felt like something was wrong about a second before … Continue reading Vol 5: Chapter 7 – A decision made →

The Riftwar Cycle

Before I was a writer, I was an avid reader. I got into writing at quite a young age, but it was the stories that I read as a child that influenced me to start to make my own. And at a young age I was already drawn to the fantastical. Sometimes throughout my life … Continue reading The Riftwar Cycle →

Vol 5: Chapter 6 – Danger lurks

Mirgia and Doroly went to the location of the nearby dungeon on foot. Despite her smaller stature, Doroly was easily able to keep up with Mirgia’s larger strides. Mirgia had his bow slung over his back and a short sword at his belt. Doroly had a longsword on her belt. It was tucked in quite … Continue reading Vol 5: Chapter 6 – Danger lurks →
