New Project(ish) Announcement

Alright, so those of you who’ve been paying attention and kept with me through my admittedly sporadic schedule might remember that I said I had a new project in the works, oh, four months back. Well, the gist of it Read more…

Nayuta Final(ish) Thoughts

So I did finish Nayuta (except the new game plus additional content I just don’t feel the drive to do right now; I need a break) and while my last follow-along thoughts on it were wrapped into Cold Steel… Well, Read more…

On the Writing of Swordsmanship

“Hmm… I keep using riposte for any kind of counterattack, but I think it’s supposed to refer specifically to A) thrusts and B ) counterattacks after a parry. Maybe I should fix that…” “Hmm…” “I’m gonna pretend I didn’t see Read more…

The Final Week

Greetings and salutations, friends! Sorry for the delay, but I’m here to finish out my read along of A Night in the Lonesome October. I wish I had a good excuse for why I’ve been absent so long, but really Read more…

Night 24: Night of Monsters

Alright! Another night, another chapter and back into the usual swing of one per post. I find this chapter particularly interesting from a personal experience perspective. In the first place, it is a very fun chapter because it serves as Read more…

Nights 16 – 23: A Long Update

Night 15: A Bit of Frivolity

Night 14: Murder and Crows

This chapter follows right on the previous night’s heels and keeps things interesting with the first on-screen fatality of the story. And a murder that’s all the more interesting because of the inherent intrigue involved in it — that it’s Read more…

Night 13: No Clever Title

This chapter is an exciting one because it introduces handily the main antagonist in the form of the Vicar. And I’m confident calling the Vicar the main antagonist, even for a first time reader, because his actions and attitude make Read more…

A Song of A Hero

So I wasn’t going to do anything like this, in large part because I don’t want to distract from A Night in the Lonesome October, but I already did most of the writing in conversation with a friend [Footnote 1] Read more…
