I can’t hold my Bendy theories in anymore!!

I've only got a few people to infodump to about Bendy IRL, I'm just so excited after watching the BATDR trailer and reading all the new theories that I can barely sleep or get any work done, and now that we have an official release date they can't chicken out if my theories are correct …

April and the Extraordinary World (2015) – Reviews of Unknown/Underrated Movies

I know, it's been a while since I last posted. Sorry, everyone...! I've been busy trying to start my business, get the first volume of my first graphic novel ready for publishing, get a head start on the second volume and help out while both my parents recover from surgeries... I'm pretty thoroughly exhausted, heh... …

Hilda (Season 1, 2018) – Reviews of Unknown/Underrated TV Shows

So, I've been genuinely surprised by the quality of a lot of Netflix original series (I'm not entirely sure why, but I honestly didn't expect something that was originally just a streaming service for other people's shows/movies to have access to decent writers/animators/etc, some of which seem to actually do better spinoff series than the …

Writing Tips – Getting Story Ideas

The moment is here. You just finished your last story a month ago and you're getting the itch to start writing again (or maybe you have to write for your job), but... crud monkeys. No ideas. Useless. Empty. Brain (go goofy references)! Now your fingers ache for the pen/keyboard even more simply because they know …

Steam Powered Giraffe at the Historic Paramount Theater – A Review

Thanks to the generosity of a kind lady we didn't know, my mom and I got to see and meet my favorite band, Steam Powered Giraffe at their first concert in Colorado on June 16, 2018. Can't thank you enough!! For those who don't know about them, their stage personas are steampunk (futuristic-Victorian) automatons built …

Dragon Hunters (2008) – Reviews of Unknown/Underrated Movies

Another French-movie-I-didn't-know-was-French review (technically this one is "French-German" like how some of our shows are "American-Canadian")! My gosh, I was SO obsessed with this movie when it was released in America. I wish I could watch the television series and read more of the comics than just the one that came with the DVD. It …

Mune: Guardian of the Moon (2014) – Reviews of Unknown/Underrated Movies

Okay, I'm on a French movie hyperfocus since I discovered that this movie which we found on Netflix the other day and a couple of older movies I always loved were all made in France. I have two other reviews planned after this one (no, I'm not gonna redo my review of A Monster in …

Writing Tips – Keeping Your Story Alive

I've been writing stories for a long time, as such I have also had many a story die on me. If you've ever tried to write a story, you've probably struggled with things like writer's block and plot holes. Even professionals struggle with this kind of thing. Here's some advice, some entirely my own and …

Writing Tips – Letting Characters Create Themselves

I know, I know, characters don't ACTUALLY create themselves, but that's really the best way to describe when the best characters happen. Rule number one: STOP TRYING. As I said in my post about accidentally neurodiverse characters, if you TRY to make characters act a certain way, a lot of times you'll end up making …

Writing Tips – Accidentally Neurodiverse Characters

They say "write what you know," because you're more likely to write something convincing if you're familiar with the subject and/or you're interested in it. I, for example, would never want or be able to write a story about sports. I'm that person sitting off to the side on Super Bowl Sunday, stealing snacks from …
