More for my sake than yours, I’ve decided to keep tabs on my current reading list because I like the accountability. Thus, that means I’m going to try out doing a monthly reading list of what’s currently peaked my interested (or otherwise failed to). I may include brief –– albeit my liberal version of the word –– reviews of each books’ contents. That said, below is the first batch off my shelf. ~ A Natural History of Dragons by Marie Brennan If you’ve ever wanted to read a scientist’s ...

A Loss of Innocence
With the current trends in our world, which I doubt I need to pontificate, I find myself contemplating one facet. Possibly with selfish intent, but as I see events like what occurred in Charlottesville and the sequential reactions of not just a nation but the world, I find myself growing introspective, questioning my own loyalties, ideologies, and even aspirations.

Change: Learning to Embrace the Inevitable
First off, let me start with an apology. I’ve been a little out of touch recently, and it’s all because of one specific reason: I’m moving. Why is a complicated, rather irritating matter.

What to Expect
I’m sure by now I’ve probably confused some of my audience for a seemingly lack of focus. Allow me to explain: there is no focus. I realise eclecticism might be a bit of a strategic error on my part.

Of course, the ones who usually profit have extremely specific focuses, honing on one, two, or maybe even three areas of interest. (The audacity!) However, whenever I ...
SDCC: What You Want to Know – Pt. II
Let’s talk about the one no one saw coming, Thor: Ragnarok. Thor hasn’t exactly had a formidable standalone film compared to the other Avengers (but his brother Loki has had three). That said, obviously he would need to have his own third one, just like the other front runners of the Avengers team. However, I don’t think anyone really cares that much (except for me because, no offense Cap, Loki...err Thor is my favourite). No one seemed to care about his other films, so why care about this ...
