So, honeymoon! What did we do? Where did we go? What did we eat? All important questions, obviously. For this post I'll tell you some cool overview stuff and for later posts I'll come back and dig into some of the experiences I think will be useful from a world-building/fact-finding perspective, just because there was...

Friends, Romans, countrymen....we are back in the USA, and back at home! Which means I have so many things to tell you about, because I was gone for two weeks which is literally forever. Coming back this week has been crazy hard, what with getting back into the swing of things, and the next few... Continue Reading →
My friends, I am still on vacation. So your post this week will be delayed until my return. See you then!
Greetings! By the time you read this, I will probably be in Canada enjoying some maple-syrup-covered delights. That's what people eat in Canada, right?

I read the novel Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynn Jones recently, and it sparked in me some thoughts about adaptations and reimaginings in anime. We've had a lot of controversy about some of those recently. Take Ghost in the Shell, for example, one of the most widely adapted of the anime franchises. I am sure everyone... Continue Reading →
This is not a light-hearted meditation. This is about a lot of things, congealing as they sometimes do for me, because of story. This is not the first time such things have solidified in this way, just the most recent. This is about my grief. It is an old grief. It comes from the child who... Continue Reading →
