Saturday Snippet #1 Okay, I’m being very vulnerable here, you guys. The last time I published anything to the public, fiction-wise, was back in 2015, so this is a huge step for me. Whether or not this ends up being in the book is neither here nor there, but it does kind of give you…

Okay, so hear me out: I love Charlize Theron. One of my favorite movies of all time is Mad Max: Fury Road, and I loved her in The Old Guard, The Fast and the Furious franchise, and Young Adult. But I really hate Rita Leeds. At the beginning of her run on Arrested Development, I…

Just FYI, I have about 4 million modules I have to complete by the end of today, and I have to write 1667 words for NaNo, so this is gonna be another quick post; but this was easier than I thought it would be because only one character came to mind super quickly.

I know that Priss Asagiri is a fan favorite, and I get it. She’s tough, brave, quick with her anger, and rides a damn motorcycle like there’s no tomorrow. That’s not even touching the fact that she fronts a rock band, The Replicants, and wears this glorious blonde wig that can make even the most…

One of the things that bothers me in television is when writers basically run out of ideas and start rehashing a whole mess of storylines. For example, Buffy wanting to be a normal girl throughout the first two seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer got a little tiring after a while, and Gabrielle staying “pure”…

Picking my least favorite character on shows with large main casts – like Battlestar Galactica, for example – is a fairly easy task, but on shows like Bebop, it’s quite a bit more difficult, as there are only five main characters and I pretty much care about them almost equally. So I narrowed it down…

Sigh, I wanted to love Padme Amidala. I mean, come on, she’s the democratically-elected queen (I don’t think “queen” means the same thing in my head as it does in George Lucas’, but whatever, moot point) of a gorgeous garden planet that ends an invasion of her home and then becomes a senator in the…

So this is actually not what I was going to originally for today, but! I really wanted to make sure that I had plenty of time to watch the last three seasons before I got into them. School and work are hella crazy right now, so I was only able to watch an episode or…

Every Christmas after the release of Mass Effect 2, I have asked for a Grunt plushie. Why? Because he is my absolute favorite character in the entire trilogy. His little evil cackle brings me joy, and his pure krogan-ness is delightful. One of my favorite interactions between him and Shep is after the Rite of…

In light of what’s going on right now, I actually find my choice of least favorite recurring character to be appropriate, but before I get into my reasoning here, I want to say this: Aisha Tyler is probably one of my all-time favorite celebrities. She’s funny, nerdy, talented, and opinionated, and she seems to enjoy…
