Staying Motivated Going Into Blaugust2022 Week 4
Blaugust Week 4 is here, and I haven't posted every day, in fact, once I decided not to post every day, my frequency has dropped off quite a bit. I still want to stay motivated to participate and write, but I've set more realistic goals going into the final stretch of...
Creative Appreciation Week – Blaugust 2022 Week 3
Welcome to week 3 of Blaugust 2022. For this week's writing prompt, which gains us the Creative Appreciation Blaugchievement, I'm talking about game music, and specifically about a podcast that celebrates it called Battle Bards. Creative Appreciation – This one...
Backdating and Scheduling Posts in WordPress
I was going to leave a few gaps in my Blaugust posts because there will be days when I can't post. However, I don't HAVE to do that thanks to a lovely little feature in WordPress that allows you to set a specific publish date on your posts. Today is the 14th, I have...
Origin Stories – Books That Shaped Me
I was actually going to skip posting today, but several authors on Twitter are talking about Book Lover's Day and books that shaped their love of reading, and I had to chime in with at least something. I've been an avid reader for most of my life. When I was young my...
Wrapping Up Week 1 of Blaugust2022
With a bit more time on my hands this weekend, I've been able to read and comment on a few more of the Blaugust posts. I still have a lot more to enjoy, but I'm taking my time and probably won't catch up with all of them until sometime in September. You think I'm...

Popular Games I Can’t Finish – It’s not you, it’s me
There are quite a few games in my various game service libraries that I've never finished. Even more that I own but haven't installed yet, but that's a whole other problem. Today I'm going to talk about games that I started to play but never finished. Many of these...
Sad Abandoned Blogs – The 8bitkitchen Edition
As I've read several of the bios and about pages of other Blaugust participants, I've noticed that quite a few of us have dabbled in more than one blog. I thought I'd share one of my favorite, though sadly abandoned, past collaborative efforts. A little blast...
Origin Stories – Past, Present, Future Games
This week's theme is about introductions and it was fun to go back through my photo folders to find some things to share. Today is about games. When I was young I was a bit of an anomaly, more interested in my brother's Dungeons and Dragons stuff than I was in the...
Survival Games on Steam Sale
There are quite a few survival games on Steam's Survival Fest sale, going for the next two days. If that is your favorite type of game, you probably have many of them already. But it might be worth checking out for some of the newer releases. I'm considering getting V...
