Last Saturday, which seems like a long time ago now, Geoff and I made our way downtown for Awesome Con. A new convention to the Maryland/DC area, we decided to give it a shot. I mean, I've driven fourteen hours to Georgia for a con in its first year (I'm looking at you 221BCon). I …
“You Know, Your Cousin Works on CSI”, Or How I Finally Made it to California
My mother has this story that she likes to tell where I'm three years-old and I'm sitting on the front porch of our house in sub-urban Baltimore with suitcase waiting for a cab to come down the street and whisk me away to the airport. When the neighbor asked where I was going, my response …

Two and a Half Months
Two and a half months. That's how far we are into 2014 and all I've done so far is write about how I'm going to write more content that's actually worth something. I've done well I see. It's not that I haven't been doing anything interesting for the last two and a half months. Quite …

The Return of the Blogger!
So, sadly this is not an entirely real post. BUT! I'm in the process of writing a few of them...and they should hopefully be posted over the next week. I had plans to write a lot more at the beginning of this year and things spiraled quickly out of control with the last semester of my …
