Where did Time go?

I think about this blog every single day, I promise. I think about it and I think "I should really post an update and let people know what is going on" ... and then I look up and the last time I post is 2 months ago *sigh*

I know that the number one rule to actually gaining followers on a blog is to constantly provide updates.. and I want to! But then I get busy and my mind moves on to my next character or my next plot point and I lose the thought, desire, energy to spend time pouring words into a blog that barely anyone reads any more (because I quit posting!).

So I apologize to anyone who stumbles across these words, I hope to have more for you soon. Please don't abandon me, please send me good thoughts and maybe comment or two. The more reaction, the more that I know I am not wasting my time and so I will actually spend more time here. Yay

Restarting

Due to a recent conversation with a few friends and allies. I might be considering resuming posting my writing and ramblings here. I have so many stories and ideas in my head, perhaps it might be time to share a few with those who dare to read this blog.

I know that I should warn you now: I have a very self efacing humor. So please bear with me and understand that I am laughing at myself, that way you don't have to *Smile*

Before I get into sharing all of my deep dark secrets and the machinations and plots roaming through the grey matter in my head, let me share with you some cool things that I have found over the past few years. That way you can have some fun supporting awesome projects and add a little sunshine to your life as well.

First and foremost, I found Kickstarter. Its AWESOME. It allows those of us who lead ordinary lives to actually invest in nifty projects that are the heart and soul of others and be a part of the change that we want to make in the world. New businesses, games, tools, art, music, all of it!

Let me share a few that I personally liked: Artisan Dice

(Maybe you figured out that I was not joking about being a gamer )

And my favorite! The world of Kingdom Come

The Kingdom Come Kickstarter really resonates with me-- because I have been working on creating a world just like that! I have quite a few little stories of my medieval world in my head, but I am so jealous that the studio in that video and Kickstarter is able to live that dream. More power to them.

Should people actually start paying attention to my blog again, I might just be tempted to regale you with the exploits of the Paladin, the Trooper, the Sith, the Warlord, King Beardion the DragonLord, and The Kingdom of Cronali. (yes, all different stories in different venues)

To my Darling

Comparing you to roses seems so trivial

So instead I searched for another analogy

Yet when I considered the rays of the sun

Even they did not do my feelings justice

Staring into the wonders of the universe

I still felt that something was missing

Gazing at your gently sleeping visage

My heart swells with untold emotion

No more requests linger now

Knowing the warmth of your hug is all

Satisfying the deepest wishes

I write this poem to ease the pressure

Of the feelings raging in my chest

To lie in your embrace ends the struggle

Heals the wounds of weary life

Ignites the fires of the moment

Gives reason to continue this fight

A harbor against the storm

With your hand laced in mine

I feel the battle already won

Ewokian Love Poem

This.. is for that certain someone who knows me at my most embarrassing dorky moments. Taken from the Epic Saga of Star Wars, all homage to George Lucas for the gift of his imagination. My Ewokian Love Poem.
