So there's about six posts at once I need to write — including a con wrap-up, and reviews for all the 80 Days crossover fics that have come in — but this is the most important to post quickly as I get everything unpacked and struggle to catch back up.

So here is a cool thing: On Sunday, outside of Quills & Sofas, we took a group photo of as many authors as we could round up.

Here is a cooler thing:

And at long last, I am able to show the first chapter of my next large project: Realms of Existence. This is going to be a longer story than Wanderlost by quite a bit - only 21 chapters, but most of those chapters are twice as long (if not longer!) than a Wanderlost chapter. I'm really interested to see what you guys think of it.

It's not as science-fiction as Wanderlost, it's a pure fantasy, even if it does seem a little out there at times.

Curious as to what that title means? Well, then your service is requested here:

-GM, master of borks.

So, would you look at that. One hundred followers. A big milestone, a HUGE milestone.

Does this mean I'm Horse Famous? Gosh no. But that doesn't really matter, does it? This means that the stuff I write is probably worthwhile in some way.

Over the past nine years that I’ve been playing and GMing various games I have noticed that there are various styles of game play. Anything from the power gamer to the method actor, but the one thing that I’ve noticed not very many people discuss is probably the one thing an entire game is built around; styles of Gamer Master. Players come and go, and can usually learn to work within other player styles. Yet we never discuss the different styles of Game Master, nor the types of players that

You know what I feel like when someone introduces a new house rule for a game, doesn't tell me about it, and then penalizes me for breaking a rule I didn't know?

Seriously though, it's not a good thing so today I'm going to talk a little bit about guidelines on house rules.

GM Berrow is true master at the art of the pony place-name pun, that unique literary device which makes our genre of writing so supremely equine.

In the beginning there was a Game Master, and over the course of seven days he created a perfect world full of intrigue, villains, heroes, and magic. Then on the seventh day he invited Players to come and create Player Characters to act as their avatars in the Game Master's perfect world. Within three hours the once perfect world was destroyed by these supposed heroes going on a murder hobo rampage. To the NPC's of this world, this was the first sign that the end was to come. To the Game

Moving into the realm of Original Content, it suddenly seemed like a good idea to not make my symbol be the very much copyrighted infinite-sided die from Gravity Falls, which has been with me and my icons for many, many years. However I didn't want to abandon the association with infinity entirely, and I really do like changing my icon every now and then to showcase my latest obsession, and I also wanted a symbol that could be used for story-covers rather easily...

Hey guys! Some of you may know this already, but I'm going to start streaming videos to watch with everyone (hopefully) every week! Specifically, two sessions, one friday night at 8 PM - Midnight and one saturday morning at 8 AM - Noon. (Times given in Mountain Standard Time. A note on Time Zones can be found below.)

We will be using cytu.be to sync everything up. Specifically, at this room:

As almost all the community panels I attended were from people on FIMFiction, I trust they will post some of their notes or thoughts on those panels. If not, then I’ll have to steal all their ideas and seem super smart.

And I have some thoughts myself that I’m going to write up as proper articles about some stuff regardless.

Howdy folks! Well, I had a fun weekend. I ended up driving Thursday afternoon (managing to get to Portland at 3pm, just in time for the traffic to go to hell) and drove back Sunday evening (managing to hit a section of I-5 where they closed all but one lane at 10 PM, creating a huge traffic jam in the middle of nowhere), and had a total blast the whole time in-between.
