In today’s post, I really just want to do a little chat and wrap-up. I’ll touch on some points I might have missed during this series, give you some final tips and suggestions, and just generally… wrap this up. Wow. I still can’t believe it. This series is over. Who would have thought? Not me.

Today, I thought it would be fun to share my personal IT career journey and talk about how it started and how I got where I am. This is going to be split into two parts since there’s a lot to go through. My hope is that by being thorough and open about this, I can show others that it’s entirely possible to build a career in a field like IT and support yourself without the need for a degree that you don’t actually want or care about.

I’ve gotta say, this book really stepped it for me in several ways. In this spoiler-free review, I’m going to dive into those ways in which the conclusion to the trilogy impressed me and give you my final personal recommendation based on my feelings toward the trilogy as a whole.

uilt our world, we’ve written our story, our homebrew campaign is ready… but are we? In this post, I’ll be talking about the tools that I recommend you have as a game master for your tabletop campaign. These won’t be specific to D&D, though that’s the game that I typically run. Instead, these are just general suggestions for making your tabletop roleplaying game experience the best that it can possibly be. Some of it is software, some of it is hardware, but all of it combines to make an absolutely phenomenal tabletop experience.

This post isn’t about my favorites, it’s about my anticipated favorites. These are stories—be they books, movies, or games—that I can’t wait to experience this year, in 2022. I think it’ll be interesting to put these thoughts out there and then reflect on this post once I’ve actually experienced these stories to see if I was let down or not.

y review for that book, you know I was a little eh on the book overall, giving it an average rating of three stars. Not because it was a bad book, just because it isn’t really up my alley. I also voiced some expectations that I had for Jade War, which I had hoped would be met. Some of them were, others weren’t, but overall this was definitely an improvement on the first book, in my opinion. I think that’s enough allusion to what this review will entail, so let’s just get into it. This is my spoiler-free review of Jade War.
