What with Dark Sun heating up (GET IT?), I feel I’ve got a few more posts in me for the near future. A few thoughts about White Wolf are tumbling around in the brain-box, too, although to be frank it’s more to do with what’s not happening than what is. I might be repeating myself, though.

In any case, to everyone out there, thanks for reading!

Go me?

A lot of it might be snippets of code as much for my own reference as anyone else’s. Other things might talk about horrible problems I’m having and how I fixed them, like the first post up on this site.

This doesn’t mean roleplaying stuff is dead— I’ll still write about it now and then. Right now, though, I’ve got technology on the brain, and so I’ll more than likely share some of that with the Internet.

So what happens now?

The bad new is that I probably won’t post anything until this weekend.

The good news is that I’ll more than likely have some material from the setting I’m working on that I am happy to share. I had a little jolt of inspiration while laying in bed this morning, and I have a decent amount of material to work with. I also have a draft or two laying around that could be polished into some kind of post.

In the meantime, you should go check out Wizards’ site, if only to look at the article about kobolds as well as the D&DI Compendium, which apparently went up today. Short version: the kobolds bit is awesome, and the Compendium is pretty good for version 1.

WordPress’ default editor is actually rather nice. What annoys me is the page refresh after every Ctrl-S. I tried BlogDesk and the inability to create headings outside of editing HTML was irritating me. Now I am trying Zoundry Raven. It’s nice, but it also has bugs.

So, uh, bear with me.

The trouble is that I don’t have time at the moment, and may not have time today, partially because I’ll be playing D&D this evening. (We’re all level 7 now!) Tomorrow I will revise & post.

His blog is called Use Your Lightning Bolt!, and you should check it out. He has written things for you to read. What more could anyone ask for?

Up to this point, the posting schedule that seems to work best for me is roughly on the order of a couple of posts a week. Assuming a few days’ leeway, let’s call that a schedule and see how that works out. (And I am in fact writing another post that should go up soon-ish.)

Actually, for that reason, I am somewhat amazed it’s lasted even this long. It’s a pleasant surprise! To be honest, despite the fact that I was writing these kinds of thoughts elsewhere, I thought I wouldn’t really be able to write anything after leaving that venue. Furthermore, it’s nice to have all of this in one place, where I can look back and feel at least some small sense of accomplishment.

My hope is to sustain posting until I’m playing D&D 4th Edition, in which case I’ll have so much more to write about as I learn, run, and (hopefully) play the game.

I’m a little worried that my posts are too long for anyone to read, but then again this blog started as something for me. I won’t worry about that unless I somehow attract readers, and currently I’m not yet aware of any outside of some of my immediate friends. Whew.

I may keep changing themes. I realize this makes me a bad person, but I like so many themes that it’s hard to commit to one.

So that’s it for now. Stay sassy, blog.

Do you like role-playing games? If you do, there is an outside chance you’ll like this blog. One thing you could do is read it to find out.

I’m a slacker, so there won’t really be any posting schedule as such.

For the time being, I am obsessed with D&D, which should be fodder for posting. I’m pretty excited about 4th Edition, so when that comes out, I’ll likely write about the games I’m running.

My interest goes in cycles, so sooner or later it’ll probably cycle back to White Wolf’s new World of Darkness games. If you pressed a gun to my head, I’d probably say that those are my favorite as they have a tendency to be more story driven. It’s just that these days D&D is really hitting the spot for me.
