Comments Off on 2017 Media Reviews

I’ve appreciated when people take the time to write reviews and highlight connections to other good works. This post was written in one go at the end of 2017. I didn’t keep good track of the games, so that’s spotty and may be updated in 2018 as I’m reminded of them, but is otherwise complete. Previously: 2014 2015 2016

Comments Off on 344 Books Must Go

Over the last couple years I’ve been reducing the amount of stuff I own*, and now it’s time for most of the books to go. I’m giving away 344 books, three-quarters of my book collection, free to any family, friend, or acquaintance for the asking. Really. If we’ve met or traded mail before now and we got along decently, I’ll give you free books for the asking, just click that link to see the books I’ve tagged “giveaway”.
