-I think I’m falling back into Middle Earth. Torn World has me wandering the realms of fantasy worldbuilding, and now I’m getting urges to read and watch Tolkien again, and my own little hobbity halflingy characters—the wizard, the pirate, and the explorer—are starting to clamor after a couple years of dormancy.

-Another sign of impending nerdness: I bought my first ever set of polyhedral dice at the Nerd Store today! I am about as good at RP gaming as I seem to be at collaborative worldbuilding, but I am extremely good at sitting in on a campaign and heckling, and I do love me some D&D culture and aesthetic. I’m gonna see if I can’t do some fancy stuff with wire wrapping. Geek jewelry!

-And lastly in the nerd news, I finally downloaded Cinematic Titanic’s Legacy of Blood, and Frank Conniff just totally went Meta-TV’s Frank, so life is good. Why wasn’t Josh Weinstein this entertaining back in ’89? (And good god, this is the most godawful fucked up movie I’ve ever seen. It’s bad when “Howbout a Nazi craft project?” seems like it’d be a welcome addition to the story.)

-Editing. It’s everywhere. All the time. There is nothing but editing and the occasional blog break. Back to editing I go.
