If you want to read a heartwarming and festive children's book this holiday season, you might want to check out Mistletoe's Night! This book tells the story of a teddy bear named Mistletoe who was made to be a Christmas decoration but was thrown away by his owners one day. Mistletoe then embarks on a journey to find a new [...]

As a much-belated follow-up to a post I wrote back in 2001, I had the intention at the time of making an original module for the game Neverwinter Nights (the game can still be bought on GOG.com) that I called Forever Lost. Even though I never got beyond writing the outline, creating names for some of the characters, and thumbing [...]

Curiously I tried out ChatGPT and asked this question: “Tell me a story about a teddy bear.” The results are quite interesting. The AI-generated story is entirely believable and works well as a simple children's story. Once the AI-generated artwork algorithms improve, I could create an entire children's book instantly... 🤔 Once upon a time, there was a beautiful and [...]

For a creative writing class that I took several years ago, we were tasked with writing a short parable or fable. The inspiration for this short story came from The Æsop Fables for Children section on the Library of Congress website. The fable I wrote centers around the interaction between a bear cub 🐻 and a fish 🐟, and the [...]

This has been another pretty quiet year for me, besides a crummy job and limited social life, BUT I can now cross off two more things on my lengthy projects list: REMLAB is now officially completed from the standpoint of the initial goals that I intended to reach. I do plan on improving and expanding REMLAB over time (there's plenty [...]

First up, the next version of REMLAB is coming along smoothly. I have most of the Inner Sphere level 2 material and a little of the level 3 in (mostly weapons). I'll add the Clan material once I complete the IS stuff. Second, I just set up a web page for my book. It's still under construction and doesn't have [...]

This is the complete list of movies that I enjoy more or less.  Some of these movies are well known while some of the others are lesser-known cult classics.  This list is composed of the movies that I feel are worth writing about. James Cameron's Films Hands down James Cameron is my favorite film writer-director to this day. All of [...]

I wrote a story that I want to make into a Neverwinter Nights mod, la-de-da.  It's part of my new strategy, as to landing a decent job... maybe.  Unfortunately, this game won't be out until spring (*praying*), so I have no idea if it's even possible for me to create this mod.  We'll see...
