Hi, I'm Nick. I write about life, writing, mental health, anime/manga and sometimes even stories. Come say hi!

Vol4: Chapter 29 – Divine Intervention

Entering the colorful and familiar home of Miyara the seer, the atmosphere was much lighter than Mana and Cobal had anticipated. Visiting someone who was on their deathbed wasn’t an easy task in the best of conditions, but knowing that the person in question had a reason to call them over in their final moments … Continue reading Vol4: Chapter 29 – Divine Intervention →

The Backlog

It’s something that many of us struggle with, the dreaded backlog. This can be the movies or shows you still want to watch, the books you still want to read or the games you still want to play. There’s many other things that can be on your backlog of course, but I reckon these are … Continue reading The Backlog →

The burden of fun

It’s almost September again, the summer break that us teachers get that feels like it lasts forever to get to also is over in a flash. I suppose I shouldn’t complain since 6 weeks in a row is much more than most anyone else gets, but I definitely need the first 2 or 3 of … Continue reading The burden of fun →

Vol4: Chapter 28 – The future

The sun was long gone and the only thing still lighting their pathway along the beach was the moon and the stars. Mana once explained to him that - as least in her world - the moon didn’t actually have any light coming from it directly, but only reflected the light from the sun which … Continue reading Vol4: Chapter 28 – The future →

The new Blink182

A quick post today about some music. I’ve been going around lately discovering a lot of new music. I got into Sleep Token, Ghost, the Kpop movie, and of course - although not new - Yungblud’s album Idols. I’ve also made a habit out of clicking on songs in my recommendations that look interesting. So … Continue reading The new Blink182 →

Vol4: Chapter 27 – A hero’s return

“You didn’t have to come out here to greet us,” Cobal said to Guthir.“Nonsense, you have done us a great service.”“Maybe you should take his advice father, you know how hard it was to push this wheelchair all the way to the pier?”“A bit of exercise is good for you, you spend all day behind … Continue reading Vol4: Chapter 27 – A hero’s return →

Taskmaster

Five comedians, one Taskmaster, one little Alex Horne and a whole bunch of nonsense. That probably is enough to describe the format of one of the most fun British panel shows out there. Having had this blog for coming up on five years now, it’s a wonder that I never dedicated a post to this … Continue reading Taskmaster →

The Hesitant Hero – August Update

Here we are, in August of the fourth year of The Hesitant Hero. I had no real expectations I’d ever spend as much time in this world as I have when I first started writing the initial ideas down on paper in late 2021. The only thing I really knew for this story was that … Continue reading The Hesitant Hero – August Update →

The Book Fair

I talk about the book fair regularly, as I visit it once a year. It’s a colossal event where an entire street and several squares are filled to the brim with stands where people are selling books and things related to books. There’s comics, maps, some art pieces, cds and vinyl and even some D&D … Continue reading The Book Fair →

Vol4: Chapter 26 – I’m Sorry

The strange buzzing noise that the screen made faded as the image itself disappeared. Silence filled the mage’s tower as the four of them were rattled by what just happened. Communicating through a screen with someone that is in a different kingdom was a weird experience. Not to mention that this was only the second … Continue reading Vol4: Chapter 26 – I’m Sorry →
