Personal: June 2026 Update

 

A wayward swordsman hunts through a forsaken land

Well, it's been quite a while again since I've updated the blog. Like I've said in previous posts though, this blog is something special to me, in many ways a catalog of my interests as I've grown up.  I started Skies of Flies, Ground of Rust when I was 17 years old, a lot of the other guys at the game store had blogs and it seemed like the thing to do to connect with other hobbyists (this was largely before social media mind you). I'm in my thirties now, and I've gotten to watch our hobby grow wildly outside of what I had ever could have hoped for. 

My time in tabletop gaming has been a huge part of my life, and the people I've met have become lifelong friends, and have been a part of getting me my career, and living my life. In some ways im suprised im still playing games and writing stories as often as I am. In others I suppose it makes a lot of sense. 

While this blog has not been very active in the hobby, I have, If anything in the recent years I've played more games than ever and written more stories about Jornath and the wider Vahland sector than ever. I'm hoping life has finally started to calm down slightly to allow for me to share them here again.  

I can't wait to share the Stories of Edras College, Havaris, Yen-Isorah, Ingredior, or the many other 'little wars' in other settings. 

I've also been working on getting into the woods and hiking more with my loving partner Sophie. She's been an absolute light in my life. Also my hair's gotten about 8" longer, which has been an all new experience of its own! 

I appreciate you all,
