Latest Sequential Art Project


Here's a raw scan of a new project I'm working on. Ideally, I'd like to do an average of three new projects on this blog per week. This is another stream of consciousness piece entitled "Null Pattern Sequence (Erebus 1843)". I've been reading up on the Sir John Franklin expedition to find the Northwest Passage back in 1843. At the time, it was the largest, supposedly most advanced, best equipped, and most skilled arctic expedition to date. However, all of the crew members of the H.M.S Erebus and H.M.S. Terror disappeared and no one is 100% sure what happened. There is much speculation that the the canned provisions for the voyage were tainted by lead and/or botulism thus leading to the crew's ultimate demise. Anyway, if you're interested, check out the books "Ice Blink" by Scott Cookman and better still " Frozen in Time" by Owen Beatie and John Geiger for more. Ultimately, I'm going to do some more embellishment via Photoshop on this piece.

Neurodiversity and Dragons - the adventure begins!

  Tl;dr: Kia ora all! I don’t often post much about my personal life, but as a parent of two neurodiverse teens, I reckoned that I’d post some of my experience in gaming here on our journey. My daughter was diagnosed with autism almost a year ago and my son is dyslexic/dysgraphia with ADHD like presentation. Both are incredibly bright and very different from each other (my son has lots of friends and is very bright and gregarious if also very lazy while my daughter is very retreating and shy but incredibly driven and motivated). They both love fantasy and fantasy literature, movies and gaming has been a way for us all to connect. Though often what works for one, doesn’t necessarily work for the other. This brings me to my point, I am working on trying to best accommodate the needs of my neurodiverse daughter and include her in an experience that she very much wants to participate in, but often feels frustrated and overwhelmed by. This is an introduction to our journey so far.   For s

I like pie!

Cyclopeatron made an interesting blog post which I tend to agree with. Most conent posts don't get responses but opinion posts do. I've noticed the trend in my own blogging as well. There is some incredibly interesting content being generated out there in OSR blog land. I think folks tend to react more to opinion pieces because no one really wants to 1) either say your stuff sucks on a blog post or 2) only say "that's cool man". I tell you what, I cherish the "that's cool man posts", it at tleast let's me know folks are paying attention. As to the your stuff sucks, well those are OK too as long as they tell me why they think my stuff sucks so I know how to try and improve it. At any rate, I like pie. It even tastes better when I had to kill an orc to get it ;).
