The Roundup is a new feature I am planning to put up quite regularly, say once a week or once a fortnight. It will be a collection of links to pieces of writing I have done that I want to highlight, and maybe a bit of blurb about what I have been up to. I may also throw some links of other interesting things in. Lets do this thing!

First order of business, I got a 2:1 in my BA (Hons) Modern History and Politics degree. Hell yeah! In other news I have recently started doing some writing on Resolution and I will soon be writing semi-regularly on GamingDaily

Oh and as I haven’t actually mentioned it here before, I am currently spending most of my writing time on The Reticule which I am involved on with Greg Wild, Steve Peacock, Phill Cameron and Mattias Tammet, or more commonly StalinsGhost, SteveTheBlack, The Poisoned Sponge and Mythrilfan.

(more…)

As Chris so eloquently put it in the previous post, I’ll be throwing up various thoughts and ramblings wot ‘ave to do with them things called games. These will mostly take the form of quasi-reviews (I say quasi because I don’t use those number things), [Ed Note - He is wise and follows my style, awesome!] and any particularly interesting thought I have on the format and/or games in particular. As such, my forays onto these hallowed pages shall be sporadic at best, and blessedly breif. I wouldn’t want you to grow too complacent. Edges of your seats you must sit!

So yes, I’ll probably put something up in the next day or two, as I’m long due a long exploratory piece about gaming. And as such, I shall flee now, to retreat to the comforting blankness of Microsoft Word 2007. It’s so pretty, with it’s blinking cursor and it’s white, white pages. Just waiting eagerly to be filled…..

The Poisoned Sponge or to use his real name, Phill, has joined my little blog as a fellow writer. Phill specialises in ‘reviews and thoughts’ to quote his three word resume he sent me.

I must say I am pleased to welcome Phill to the site, and I hope you my our readers do too. He should be writing his own little post a bit later tonight so just wait for that.

In a side note I have fiddled around with the layout of the blog a little bit, as such you will now see the name of the author of a particular piece on the site. I think that is quite useful now there are two of us.

Finally you can also register as a subscriber to the site if you so wish. I don’t know what that will do, but you are more than welcome to give it a go.
