Last night, we wrapped production on the third season of Tabletop. It was bittersweet for me, as always, because I’m so wiped out and teetering on exhaustion, the idea of sleeping until I don’t need to sleep is very appealing … but I’m also sad, because I love the crew so much, and they are such a joy to work with. We truly have become...

Awesome!

Looks like a great list, I'm eager to see how more games you guys will make me want to buy. :)
This is my intro for Dead of Winter. I thought it may spark an interesting discussion about what I call Peak Zombie:
I think I was a freshman or sophomore in high school the first time I saw Dawn of the Dead. It hit me the way certain things can only hit a child’s fragile, eggshell mind: it was gory, and disturbing, and pretty...

still watching most things zombie but not with as much anticipation and hunger so to speak

The genre has gotten a bit overcooked, but I don't want it go away completely. I think there are still ways to keep it somewhat fresh.

Personally, this is still my favorite Tool song.
When we were in Portland this weekend, we Powell's, so I could pick up a couple of books that I need (yes, need.) Because I just finished Prisoner of Azkaban, I got Goblet of Fire, and I also picked up Broken Monsters, based on this review at NPR.
We didn't have as much time as I wanted while we were in Powell's (we never do),...

I adore Powell's! Powell's satiates my need for vintage library material. Last time I was there I purchased nearly every book on Dewey classification and library science published before the 70's. And please don't get me started on books on books!

I love bookstores and libraries that way, too. Started in fifth grade. Dad made me play sports, and I would tell coaches I had to leave early because I had a lot of homework; which gave me the chance to dive in to the small branch of the county library. I'd sneak 4 or 5 books under my mattress, then at bedtime I'd make a tent out of the covers and read 'til my muscles ached on one side, then the other. No one in my family ever knew that about me.
While looking for something in my documents folder, I came across this in an old drafts folder. It looks like it was written in winter about five years ago, and I’m not sure if it was ever published, but even if it was, I like it enough to repost it today.
I stayed up until almost one this morning, reading comic books.
I know, it’s...

that was amazing, Wil. i wish i could of seen what you saw. plus it sounds like you don't have to deal with much light pollution where you are, I'm jealous.
A massive hurricane is currently tearing up the ocean just off the coast of Mexico, and the surf here in Southern California is huge. Waves between fifteen and twenty feet have been common, and on Wednesday, Anne and I went down to the beach to see them for ourselves, and take a long walk along the sand.
School has just started, so there weren’t many...

I must say you're handling this with more maturity that I probably would have. Well, I can't wait to see what you do next, sir :)

I heard good things about the show but haven't seen it. Unfortunately the $20+ extra per month my cable provider charges to get SyFy just isn't worth it for how little TV I watch now. :( Sorry to hear that all those people who did get in on the laughs are going to miss out this season though.
A fellow SG member who I will leave anonymous asks,
Second Season of Wil Wheaton Project. Yes or No? I hope SyFy channel has the foresight to keep it going.
So for those of you who don't know, earlier this summer, I did 12 episodes of a silly comedy show on Syfy called The Wil Wheaton Project. It was basically The Soup for people...

So many games for season 3! Have you picked your favs yet? Sneak peek?
rogha:
It was in fact inevitable that SYFY wouldn't renew this show as they are the only company I can think of that actually seems to strive towards letting down their target audience. Bah... and Humbug too.
This is another post I wrote on my blog about how I deal with depression and anxiety.
Everyone who has Depression experiences it in a different way, but I think it’s safe to say that all of us have days when it sits more heavily on us than others. I realized yesterday morning that I’ve been struggling under more depression and anxiety than usual for...

Expressed well. I can relate to some of that. Thanks for sharing.

*hugs* I hope this message finds you in a better place... and if not, know that there are people out there that care. <3<3
I wrote this on my blog in 2012. I'm reposting it here today because I think it's important to talk about mental illness, and since we're all thinking about the death of Robin Williams, it's especially important right now.
When he was 23, my friend Steve killed himself, and though I don’t think of him every day, I do think of him often, and I...
