Hiatus...

I've been out of the blogging scene for quite a while -- I don't even remember the last post. I've been to so many places (well, not that many), and gone through so many things, and have met so many new people, that it's really just a chore to actually write everything down. But then I must, and just after reading inspiring stories I'm in the mood to write. So then I'll get to it.

There are some things in life you can let go of -- sometimes it's other poeple. Just when I thought I was going to stop hurting people I love, I end up hurting the person I've genuinely loved since well... I really don't remember the last time I fell in love like THAT. So there, the only person I really truly loved, I managed to hurt and break her heart. All I could be is sorry for who I am and what I do to people, that sometimes it's just not fun anymore.

I remember telling her that "You shouldn't be sorry for who you are..." -- but right now that's the only thing I can be because I am who I am: sorry. But no sense crying over spilled milk, it's better to go look for some other things to cry about.

As for work, I'm having the time of my life (so far). I've been going through a lot of changes and tasks that just breeze me through. I'm taking them on my own pace, and getting to the deadlines as soon as I can. That doesn't include being able to have fun while at it, and I really don't intend to stop having fun while I'm working.

So the pay isn't fantastic (to my standards) but I'm getting by, and I'm not complaining. Not when you're having this much fun working! But then it has got to end sometime... But I'm not waiting for that time to come, I'm gonna have fun while I still can.

Oh, and I'm looking for people to work with on a stream of projects coming into the company. I see that creative thinking, some ambition, and funding will get us somewhere fast. Or not. That I have to see.

So it's been a while, and I've been missing this feeling of pouring my thoughts somewhere people might be able to read it. At least this one comes from the horse's mouth -- or fingers if them horses have any. Anyway, that should be enough for now. I should be able to write a little more regularly now that things are beginning to settle down in this workplace of ours... And I'll be compiling a list of interview bloopers when I have the time, so I'll be damned to see them bloopers online. :D

So until next time, CHill...

    Hmm... About those projects... Any graphics projects coming in for next summer? (Practicum maybe?)

Help wanted: writing resources

I'm currently fleshing out a fantasy setting for a series of short stories rattling in my head that I'd like to get out into the world. However, it's the first time I'm even trying to do this, so I need your help: are there any good resources for world-building and writing guides that have been helpful in your projects? So far I've been really enamoured by Brandon Sanderson's world building and Patrick Rothfuss' storytelling. I suspect those two are at the pinnacle of the trade and I'm probably not going to do myself any favours by trying to live up to what they're doing, but I'd still like to give it the good college try. Are there any resources (forums, books, guides, blogs, or courses) that I should be taking if I want to do a decent first take at this? This is probably better as an email to friends and maybe some random folks (or maybe even a tweet) but why not a blog as well?

Reconnecting with people

2021 started with a a good sense of connection for me, having spent time with friends and family in a simple celebration of the oncoming year. The transition from 2020 to 2021 and being able to look back at a good part of my recent history got me thinking about how life has been for me and the family for the past decade. There’ve been a lot of people that I’ve met and become friends with while there are those that I’ve left behind and lost touch with. There’s a saying about treating old friends different from new ones, which I do appreciate now that I’m a bit older. It also means that my relationships with people that I get to spend a good amount of time with take a different shape. This reflection has given me some time and space to think about what it means to reconnect with people. Friends are the family we choose ourselves. — Edna Buchman I have the privilege of having life-long friends that I don’t always stay in regular contact with. From my perspective, if I consider you a frien...

Grief and Mourning

I've not been writing for a long time already but this time I can't keep this to myself. There's been too much happening to me and my family the past few days that I need an outlet. I've tried talking it out, being silent, and crying it out. Right now though I'm numb. I don't know whether I can keep this to myself and if I do I don't think it will be a good thing. Maybe other people have had the same experience or at least gone through the same thing. Maybe just the act of writing this out is going to be enough to make me feel something. There was a time in my life that I had thought I've been through everything. I thought everything that can happen to me would be something I can deal with. There was no doubt in my mind that I can handle anything. Unfortunately this latest one that happened to me and my wife wasn't something I was prepared for. Nor was I ready to deal with it in a manner that was controlled or well-thought out. I thought maybe if I...
