Wheel of Time Reading Workaround

That I’m a nerd and/or geek (choose your own definition) is definitely not a surprise. Just looking at the content and the categories of this website will tell you that. And if you spend any time with me at all, it’ll only be reinforced over and over again.
So it is no surprise that I […]


Review Green Arrow and Black Canary 1-4

This review was first published at Earth’s Mightiest (.com). I am the author of both however, and thus no copyright or reprint issues exist.
When Dinah Lance, aka, Black Canary stuck an arrow through Oliver Green’s, aka, Green Arrow, neck on their wedding night, you knew something big had gone down. The first four issues […]


Wheel of Time Author Chosen

It was with a heavy heart and with much sadness that earlier this year, we discovered the loss of one of the 20th and 21st century’s greatest authors. On September the 16th of this year, James Oliver Rigney Jr., aka, Robert Jordan, passed away after a courageous battle with the rare blood disease amyloidosis.
Author […]


Watchmen

Thought I’d spend a moment to touch on the trade comic Watchmen. It’s gone down in history as one of two of the best and biggest comic releases ever, along with Batman the Dark Knight. I am only recently getting back in to comics (the past 2 years) and I’m a super-hero fan. But, […]


Robert Jordan October 17, 1948 – September 16, 2007

Born James Oliver Rigney Junior, and writing primarily under the pen name Robert Jordan, the author of the wildly popular and successful Wheel of Time series passed away 2:45pm, on the 16th of September, 2007, aged 58.
Survived by his wife Harriet McDougal Rigney, Jordan died of a rare blood disease that, according to his […]


Lazy Sunday

Here I am, dressed up snug as the preverbal bug, reading all day! I watched Stargate Atlantis most of yesterday, and today I’m reading Obernewtyn, by Isobelle Carmody - Meagz gave it too me. It’s an oddly unique and compelling book, despite primarily (I think) being written for teenagers! Nevertheless, it is a good book, […]


Ah the Serenity… not the Firefly class

This post is, in all likelihood, more for my mum than anyone else… so bear with me as I retreat in to a little bit of my storyteller mindset.
I sit here, in my comfy chair, situated in a new corner, with my little blow fan pointed up at me, and the bigger heater emitting […]


linkage

Well, I don’t have too much to say today… the OotP clip has kind of taken my breath away. Add to that working on my new website for the past couple of hours, and Rachel sleeping in my bed (we’re going to the Dawn Service tomorrow… I think I’ve already said this… nm!), I’m stuck […]


My Twin!

Look! I found my twin, at the Lunar Festival! YAY! We’ve been seperated for soo long, it was … *I’m going to cry!*
Leveled up to 26 too… yay for me!
Apart from that, today was very boring. Got some emails back from some New Zealanders, read a whole heap of comics, and … no, that’s about […]


social lives; not all it’s cracked up to be!

So I realised tonight as I went for a late night perambulation to Coles, that I’m not really the world’s biggest fan of having a social life. Sure, friends who care about you and who are fun to be around are great, but, in the end, they are human - and humans tend to annoy […]


WoW; back in my heart!

That’s right - I’ve got another month of World of Warcraft underneath my belt - and I’m already lovin it! And despite not finding people willing to stick with me on the Van Cleef quest till the end, I was able to level up to 20 and beyond ogre-bashing! Lots of fun!
As for anything else […]
