Why is it that once I decided to write about school related material that I stopped posting regularly?
Well, I've been thinking about that a bit myself. For one, I guess I'm slightly busy with life at the moment. I've been playing quite a few games at the moment. Specifically I've been playing Mass Effect, Persona, Ocarina of Time, Scribblenauts, Bionic Commando and Super Metroid Eris. That's a whole lot of game time really.
I have also had a research paper assigned for English and I think this time around, I'm going to do something a little closer to my heart: the birth of video games. I'm thinking about starting with the Ralph Baer book that came out last year and expanding on that. The plan is to talk about Ralph Baer and the Brown Box, Pong, Pinball, NIM and the Cathode Ray Tube Amusement Device. In all honesty, I don't know how easy this paper is going to be to write, but I can guarantee I'll at least have fun doing it.
That's about all I've been doing lately really. I'm still looking out for writing gigs, but I honestly don't know whether or not I'll ever get a job in my desired field. I didn't get the RPGamer job, but I really wasn't expecting to, so it's hard to be disappointed. I'm going to keep trying and keep writing and maybe someday I'll have some sort of chance.
Anyways, I'm going to write something else either immediately after this or at a later point tonight about what I've been doing in each game and what I think of it. Look forward to it, because it's happening whether or not you like it.
