Seek the Wolf in Thyself!
John, this is for you. I finally finished the book! The book you recommended to be back in 1989 and I got for Christmas that year. My parents ordered them through the mail before there was an Amazon. Thanks to audio books, I FINALLY finished it and it was worth it. I wished I had…
This is working idea I am putting together for an alien race in the Savage Blood & Suns universe – one part gray, one part reptilian. They have visited our planet before, realized we were not ready for contact and left us alone. Unfortunately, one of their patrols crashed in 1937 – leading to the…
Started: December, 2017 Phase One – the Build This is a very abstract idea I came up with based on several influences. Combining the Bermuda Triangle mythology, with an alien Moon base, and the general multiverse trope from just about any comic book or sci-fi show these days, I came up with a massive “thing”…
The massive conglomeration of ships, planes and other vessels, surrounding the alien space ship that once resided on the dark side of the Moon makes up what is known as Croatoan Island. Here, survivors of these vessels have persevered in a strange and dark dimension. All humans, they have come from various Earthly multi-dimensions and…
In a conversation where I found it funny that Oprah and The Rock were both being recruited to run for president (relating it back to the movie Idiocracy), I apparently triggered a lefty-acquaintance of mine to the point that he felt it necessary to rant. The exact quote was: Sadly Trump will though. Basically, you’re…
At one time, I was really obsessed with abandoned asylums and most especially with Danvers State Hospital. Being the core inspiration for Arkham, I could not imagine why there was not some kind of source/adventure book about it. I really wanted to pool together whatever sources I could to put together such a book but unfortunately,…
I really had to sit on this for a while, because SW TLJ is a very bold movie. It apparently has divided Star Wars fandom considerably, from the Dragon*Con fanboys down to the casual fans. I have to respect Rian Johnson for his bold moves and his attempt to make it his own tale. But…
With the help of audiobooks, I am going back through some books I bought a long time ago at the recommendation of my late friend John Reavis. I hate that I waited this long to read them, this long after John passed away. I would have loved to talked to him about them. Unfortunately I…
Is mental health as important as physical health? Not yet. But will it be? Is overall societal well-being as important as the greater physical well-being? Who knows? Maybe one day. Recent reports have said that founders of some social networking platforms have said that they are “ripping apart society.” Not only that but some have…
I have resurrected my interest in Niven-Known Space setting, starting with the Ringworld setting. I am going to re-read the Ringworld books and use the resources I have at hand to come up with a trilogy of adventures for conventions. The real question is can Savage Worlds capture the essence of Niven’s vision. I see Known Space…
