Is that a mini pc? How are these things at handling voice-over recordings? I originally was looking at some of these mini pc because I figured they would be quieter. What do you think?

That would be my one weakness with that one, too.

Cool! What item did you get? Is it included in the COS campaign? I'm a DM running it for the first time and haven't memorized everything yet.

My wife and I had this conversation word for word this morning as the kids rushed our bed to wake us up.

I sent an email. Looks very interesting.

I was very lucky. The saw was slowing down when it bucked into the bottom of my thumb near my palm.
Cut it up really badly. Had the blade been going faster, it would have cut my thumb off. I wound up with torn flesh, 6 stitches, and a fractured thumb.

My advice to anyone wanting in this industry is 1. never give up on your dream.
Go for it.
Tell fear of rejection no and start recording.
2. You will hear no for a majority of your auditions. Keep going.
Don't let rejection deter you from learning
