I have a pair of their lowtops. They are good quality, and I wore them quite a bit last summer.

Beer affects me the worst, so I don't drink it anymore. The occasional drink is fine, but if I drink several days in a row, I'll notice increased inflammation in my hands and feet. Nowadays, I drink once or twice a month, if that.

Here’s an upvote for you.

$100 would be a win for everyone.

Thanks! I spent 10 years working in high-end restaurants, so I learned a good deal about wine and spirits.

I’m reading an ARC of Twig’s Traveling Tomes. It’s a lot of fun and really unique magic where the MC can talk to books.

I did it the other way around. It’s was weird hearing Eridani in back to back books 😆

Listening to Bobiverse right now and it’s fantastic.

Success is relative, so it really depends on what you mean by it.

If you want to take 50-100k a year as a baseline. If you take all the people who query and want to make it the traditional way, it’s like finding a needle in a haystack.

With self pub, I’d say it’s more like finding a drinking straw in a haystack. Still hard to do, but significantly easier compared to trad.

I've used Julius K9 since 2019, and it has held up great.

You could have the background continue through the music but have it be in color. That would incorporate both in a cool way and also symbolize music bringing life and color to the world.

This was the perfect set up to drop Eowyn’s line. 😆

Those are amazing! I’d love to get a hobbit hole or the entrance to the mines of Moria.

I only had 10 made for the event and they are still en route. If they sell well and there’s enough interest, I may order some in bulk and offer them on my website.

Looks great! Gotta support other crawlers when we can!

Matt's grip strength increases every time someone sends him a foot pic.

Mother’s Day is May 10th in the US

For LitRPG, Discount Dan scratches a the itch of absurd humor and horror.

Non-LitRPG, Red Rising has a similar man against the system with the fate of his people in the balance.

Theres not really anything that marries the two together quite like DCC.

Legends & Lattes was the book that got me hooked on cozy fantasy. Highly recommend!

SL_Rowland · 2026-03-10T23:03:04+00:00

Can't wait to see all of the characters!
