Today is a special occasion, being exactly a year since I set up and used my Twitter account for the very first time. I was always very hesitant to use social media – especially with all of the seemingly endless toxicity I’d heard about in the gaming community – but I’m pleased to say that my experience has, for the […]
Another year has passed and I’m pleased with the progress that I’ve made. I’ve maintained the dramatic weight loss that I achieved last year (which I wrote about here), I created a Twitter account – and have had met some absolutely amazing people because of it – and I’ve come so far with my writing, which is most definitely the […]
Okay, so that title might be stretching the truth a bit. It’s not exactly new, but this week – with me being busy focusing on board game reviews – I […]
Hello to all of you readers out there, new and old. I appreciate you all taking the time to check out my blog – it’s not always easy to find […]
Much like Paul Davies, the author of Florin’s ZX Spectrum Haul of Games, I grew up in the 80s. Also like Paul Davies, I have limited recollection of ‘important’ experiences […]
Way back in the dark days of 2007, when my own blog/website was not something I could ever imagine having (not least because I wasn’t confident enough in my writing […]
I’m a bit late to the party with this post, but I’m immensely proud to have once again had a review published on Nintendo Life. Without further ado, here’s my […]
It’s been another busy week for me; somehow, however, I’ve still managed to maintain a pace of an article a day. For most of the week, I’ve tried to push myself into slightly unfamiliar territory and wrote several non-video game related pieces – there’s definitely been a more traditional, card-and-board-games feel to the blog this week, which wasn’t necessarily intentional! […]
The digital ink has barely dried on my very first Nintendo Life review – and yet, here’s another one! Thank you to everyone who was kind about my Beast Quest review, especially those of you who wanted me to get a chance to review a decent game next. Your wish came true! So without any further ado – here’s my […]
I featured the deliciously dark DnD 5e companion Corpus Malicious shortly after its crowdfunding campaign launched on Kickstarter (at which point, impressively, it had already smashed its funding goal) – and, with ten days to go on the campaign, I thought I’d check in and see how it was doing. Turns out the answer to that is very well indeed. […]
Well, that was a weird week. Travelling to a very intimidating meeting for my day job and having a day out of work to attend a funeral for a beloved family member added to my general lack of energy this week – and yet…I still, somehow, managed to get an article published every day. Let’s see what I covered this […]
Today’s article is going to be a short one; I’m just here excitedly sharing my first review on Nintendo Life. I’m very grateful to have been given the chance to […]
Today sees the long-awaited launch of Into the Sanctum, a new website dedicated to covering all things gamey and geeky. With lots of very talented people onboard (and me too!), […]
Long running TV shows – particularly sitcoms – are famous for relying on ‘clip shows’ when they run out of time, money, ideas or a combination of the three. The […]
At some point recently, I seem to have sailed past 4000 followers on Twitter. It’s a testament to how fast social media moves and how quickly everything seems to have grown that I didn’t actually notice when it happened. Which sounds really bad, but – having now noticed – I wanted to write something more substantial than just a thank […]
