Welcome to my blog!
This is where I write about writing, coding, game design, and whatever else I think you might be interested in. Have a request for a topic? Drop me a line, and I'll write a post!

Potato Pirates!
Looking for a game that’s not only silly fun, but surprisingly strategic? Check out Potato Pirates, by ThinkFun.
Goodbye Games for Educators

Getting back in the world
It’s been a couple years since I was published, either as a writer or as a game designer. This quiet period hasn’t been due to any sort of writer’s block or lack of desire. It’s simply been a fact of life. Now, it’s time for me to get back into the world.
Surviving the news
A happy thought in a time when the news seems to be an endless stream of dismal darkness.
A surprise poem
Have you ever written a poem just for yourself? It’s an idea I never paid much attention to, until now.
