Distracted From Writing – Proquest #014
I don’t know when it started, but my earliest memory of wanting to be a writer was in third grade. My teacher gave us a project where we had to write a story to match some printed out drawings and form our own book from it. She knew it would be something I was interested […]
Experiencing Everything – Proquest #013
When I was a kid, around thirteen or fourteen, I liked to pretend I was immortal. I was going through that phase where children begin turning their imaginations toward things other than make-believe play and I was starting to mourn the loss of schoolyard fantasies. Pretending to be Dragonball Z characters at recess was no […]
Thoughts on The Book of The New Sun – Proquest #012
It feels like every half-decade or so a new book rises up and takes the number one spot in my list of favorite works. In high school if you’d asked me, I would say it was Daniel Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe. Twelve years ago it was Orson Scott Card’s sequel to Ender’s Game, Speaker For The […]
Learning Linux (I use arch btw) – Proquest #011
Not my usual type of blogpost, but this topic is not out of character for me. I’ve lately fallen into downward spiral of playing around with different linux distros and desktop environments (hereafter referred to as DEs). It started a few weeks ago with the news of the Windows 11 recall feature. I’ve not been […]
The Dragon Quest Timeline
(This was written as a joke between me and some Discord friends. It’s garbage. Don’t read it.) A guy named Erdrick travels the world in a mission to tally up how many half-siblings he has. Along the way, he inadvertantly kills a Baramos and then falls in a hole. He disovers that inside of the […]

Aust Tales
Aust pulled a piece of parchment from his desk and uncurled it. Before settling in, he rose to toss another log onto the fire. He had wanted to pen this letter all day and he wasn’t going to allow the cold to drive him to bed early. It had been a rather long day, filled […]
Austette is born! (6 months ago…)
2023-11-21 – Today marks the birth of my daughter! Yep that’s what I wrote six months ago before being distracted by something and immediately forgetting about this post. Looks like the last thing I wrote was Minecraft Memories almost a year ago. Whoops. I didn’t forget about the blog, it’s just been hard to find […]
My Memories In Minecraft – Proquest #009
My son has recently grown a great fondness for Minecraft. It started with the 3DS version he got for Christmas before I finally convinced him to try the Java version on PC. His excitement for the game has incidentally pulled me back into a rabbit hole that I started down over a decade ago. It […]
