Biggest lesson I learned from my first novella was how differently unfolding game mechanics in narrative works when starting with established characters vs character creation. I learned this approximately 30% in, and it shows ;) Come learn with me here: amazon.com/dp/B09SY7SYN4


IFComp 2026 is gearing up, they've revised their AI guidelines (coding yes, player-facing content no), and apparently Tumblr is still paying for internet hosting. Who knew? "... all player-facing content in IFComp entries, including cover art, must be entirely created by humans.…

IFComp has updated its rules for 2026. You can see the updated rules page at ifcomp.org/rules/ You can read more about what went into this rule at tumblr.com/ifcomp/8072737… Thank you to everyone who shared feedback that helped inform this update.

Once you understand the incentive, the reason for the behavior becomes obvious: they are importing a left-voting bloc that depends on government handouts. A prominent example of this in America is Ilhan Omar and her Somali voting bloc in Minnesota, an area which used to be…

It is deeply weird that the absolute top priority for a lot of American and European politicians is bringing in millions of unvetted third-world immigrants. They could have shut down right wing populism entirely by compromising on this issue, but they refuse.

In the middle of Dearborn, Michigan an entire crowd chants “Death to America.” Rashida Tlaib, when asked, refused to condemn it.

This is the great lie of mass migration. You are not just importing individuals. You are importing societies. No magic transformation occurs when failed states cross borders. At scale, migrants and their descendants recreate the conditions, and terrors, of their broken homelands.

…what I would give. Even in the depths of pain and heartache of trails, there is always something to be thankful for. Please love your family so deeply today (and always). If you don’t have family; then your chosen family. Your friends. Your loved ones. Life is so…

Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours. We are thankful for the gift of salvation, our amazing children, and God’s mercy on our great country this year. Take a moment today to be grateful that we did it. By God’s grace alone, we took our country back. Psalm 118:1

After four years of house prices doubling (and in some areas, tripling) many young people feel priced out of the American Dream of homeownership. A welfare fraud scandal in Minnesota reveals that large numbers of new arrivals aren't assimilating and are funneling our tax dollars…

The standard for judges should be the same as any job: if they have a track record of making many terrible decisions (not a few isolated incidents), they should be asked to resign. It’s not that complicated.
