Playing in a fresh new D&D campaign tonight. I'm excited about getting stuck into a new character and world. And I finally get to play a rogue!

I've just started a rewatch of Naruto on Netflix and the translation of the sub just isn't as good as the old days. Fan subs were definitely superior.

The Isle of Man is a beautiful place, especially when it's sunny.

Arcade Club Bury is definitely one of the most fun places to be on Friday night in the Greater Manchester area. Four full floors of gaming. My little geek heart was very pleased.

As someone who likes to write introspective whingers, this is a good tip for me.
The legendary editor, Jo Fletcher, once told me that my main characters were allowed as much introspective whinging as they wanted to in the first half of a novel, but in the second half they needed to shut up and get things done.

But I really like all that whinging . . .

Last Tuesday, Katy Brand put this up on instagram and made me think about the problems of being an ally - in particular to women - so I wrote this

I've always loved the fact that the word 'sneeze' is the result of a historical accident. The original form, in the Middle Ages, was 'fnese', but someone mistook the 'f' for the long medieval 's' and wrote down 'sn-' instead.

Fneezing sounds much more like a proper, nasal sneeze.

My brain is so helpful. I'm trying to write for one D&D one shot/campaign, one that is coming up very soon. However, I instead come up with lots of ideas for my other campaign, one where I have more time to prepare. Writer's self sabotage it is.
