‘Do I Need to Use a Dragon?’ Available on Amazon!
This was the big and only release of last year. Do I Need to Use a Dragon? was a challenge in that it wasn’t really fiction. It was all about me trying to write a ‘how to’ book, which several people … Continue reading

Characters With a Death Wish
I guess the quote above is what a literal death wish is. That would be an acceptance that life has an ending and you’re okay with that eventuality. Doesn’t sound like you’re wishing for death, which is how fiction tends … Continue reading

When Enemies Turn Into Allies
For those who don’t know the Dragon Ball franchise, I will explain. Goku is the guy in the middle who has been the main hero since the beginning. Piccolo (green guy on right) was the final villain of the original … Continue reading

Are You In the Right Genre?
This is probably more about mixing genres, but I’m not sure exactly how to explain this story strategy. Seems to be primarily comedy because it comes with a sense of oddness that you can’t really ignore. So, I’m going to … Continue reading
When the Apprentice Takes Over
*SPOILERS FOR THE ANIME/MANGA ‘DESERT PUNK’* This post was inspired by the anime ‘Desert Punk’. It’s fun even though it gets fairly crude at some points. It does something that is fairly interesting as well. The anime is 25 episodes … Continue reading

Origins Revisited: Gabriel the God of Destiny
Weaver of Destiny. Lord of Hell. Father of the Song Casters. The Tri-God. This guy has a lot of names that I haven’t even discovered yet. Now, it is awkward doing an origin for Gabriel because he’s all me and … Continue reading

Revisiting Origins: Aedyn Karwyn
Aedyn began like Fritz and Nimby as another player’s character in the game. There was a big difference between him and them. The guy playing Aedyn was more into the mechanics of the game than the character. So, Aedyn wasn’t … Continue reading

Revisiting Origins: Fritz Warrenberg
Fritz was played by my friend Nate. Beyond that I’m not really sure where to begin with him. He is a gnome who is an inventor, illusionist, monster chronicler, and purveyor of fair maidens’ affections. In the actual game, there … Continue reading

7 Tips to Writing Survival Stories
I might start leaning more towards Survival Horror here. Still, most of the advice should be able to work for non-horror survival stories. I was wondering if Swiss Family Robinson would count too. I mean, things seemed a bit too … Continue reading

Hero for Fame and Fortune
I can already sense people heading for the comments to talk about how they hate these types of heroes. They are selfish, arrogant, rude, and/or terrible teammates. You can usually expect them to make the wrong decision if money or … Continue reading
