...what schtick?

I tried those. The walls are bleeding again.

Thanks for the kind words and thoughts, folks! To address a general point: The short answer is I'm asking everyone and everything. I've followed a LOT of content creators for a lot of years, so I know this won't be easy or quick. I'm watching videos and reading content by creators about the...

Hey, everyone. The idea has been put to me that I should take some of my older material I've never been able to find a traditional publishing home for (insert profanity-filled frustrated tirade here) and record some of it as audio books or something similar. I was at first thinking of using...

Evidently I've been writing dragons all wrong.

Loved part 3! I'm a longtime fan of the Addams Family (they're actually tenants of mine) and it was neat to see you shift from a general topic to a specific subject for an episode. I look forward to more!
