Thanks to all of you who have visited this site. It more than doubled the number of visitors over last year and I appreciate all of you who took the time to stop by (assuming at least some of you were actual humans).

I know this site is a bit of a hodgepodge. Honestly, if I have an interested (and ideally a paying) market elsewhere for a piece, that one gets priority. So what ends up here are the thoughts that don’t make it out into the wild world, whether about games, theater, or whatever.

As to what DID find homes elsewhere, here’s a rundown of some of those for 2024.
