One of the most memorable moments for me in my writing life was when I wrote about my favourite Legend of Zelda game in a post on IGN's community blog. It was the first time anyone had ever commented so much on anything I wrote, I was so happy. Even the comments that disagreed with … Continue reading another meta-writing post

Ramble-y Post About Video Games That Started Off Coherent
I need your help with something! I want to figure out the best way to enjoy playing video games better. Let me be clear in saying that I still love video games. It's just that between work, writing, and college, it's hard to commit to hours of gaming. With the exception of Pikmin 3, maybe.

We Don’t Need Sinnoh Remakes
It's no secret that I'm a huge Pokémon fan. Diamond, Pearl and Platinum are my favourite installments in the series, by far.

Breath of the Wild Looks Awesome
You know ... I usually try my best to be a very level-headed person. I try to look at things as objectively as I can, hold off on forming an opinion on something until I learn more about it. I pay my taxes. Most of all I do my best to not let the hype over … Continue reading Breath of the Wild Looks Awesome
