  • Belated RoW80 Check-In: December 11th/12th!

    “He knew they would be flowery words to win Taluin over, but, glancing toward Hederrick looking back at them with surly impatience, Locke realized that what he said was mostly true. If this thing was going to work, if they wanted to cut the others to the chase, things would have to smooth out between…

  • The 100 Books Project: Buddhism: A Very Short Introduction.

    “Individuals are thus the sole authors in their good or bad fortune.” “Buddhism: A Very Short Introduction” by Damien Keown As the title may suggest, this little guide to the basic tenants, beliefs, and history of Buddhism is a very short introduction. It was one of the books required for my university class that introduced…

  • RoW80 Check-In: December 7th!

    “Looking at Estialog and his tired eyes, his hunching shoulders, the intricate lines across his sallow, grey skin, Gilferen realized that Knolan was not nearly as old as he and Locke made him out to seem. It was merely that they were so young.” Fellow readers, RoWers, and enthusiasts, brace yourself. I’m about to deliver…

  • RoW80 Check-In: December 4th!

    “‘Temperamental?’ asked Jaxson, who didn’t know any better, his voice dripping with his sarcasm. ‘I know our young Gilferen here has a penchant for putting fire in women’s hearts, but this easily exceeds any prior scorned lovers thus far. What’d he do, love? Nasty disease, was it?’” Though this Sunday seems distinctly lacking in sun…

  • RoW80 Check-in: November 30th!

    “‘Are you crazy?’ he demanded back, throwing up his arms in frustration. ‘Why would I be following you? Me and my five friends, no less, because we’ve nothing better to do than stalk around, following mad women through the streets. Hadesari’s Mask! What did I do to piss off the Ana’aea’aek now?’” Happy Wednesday, everyone,…

  • The 100 Books Project: Caliban Cove.

    “They’d probably still die. But if they could pull it off, they wouldn’t go alone.” “Resident Evil 2: Caliban Cove” by S.D. Perry I don’t know exactly what it is about these Resident Evil books that I love so much. I know it’s not the quality of the books. While they’re not terrible, they’re not…

  • RoW80 Check-in: November 27th!

    “And so they continued up the gradual slope toward the stables, while Gilferen contended with the knot of dread in his stomach. It wasn’t exactly the gobbits that caused it, or even the dangers and discomfort of the desert ahead of them. It was just a good, old-fashioned bad feeling and he glanced toward the…

  • RoW80 Check-In: November 23rd!

    “Naturally, it was with those final words that the gobbit released a massive sneeze, narrowly missing Taluin’s outstretched hand with a trajectory of thick, milky mucus. Placidly, it licked what remained dripping from his nose. ‘Oh, yes,’ Gilferen murmured, almost losing his straight face thanks to Locke’s snickering. ‘They’re just lovely.’” Hello, everyone! Today is…
