After I completed my first vanilla playthrough of Dragon Age: Inquisition, I started looking into mods to mix things up, speed it up and add new things. Unfortunately due to its engine, Inquisition is nowhere near as modded as Skyrim (the game I came from), or even the two previous games in the DA series, there are still a few mods that have discovered to be handy for my second, third, sixth games.
I am working on a fantasy story right now, an adult (not YA) work that is for the most part about women. And blood magic. My core cast is 75% women (three women, one man), and as of now their support network is somewhere between 66-75% female.

I almost did a Legendary…
From five songs about vampires, to five terrible-amazing book title puns, Five-Day is the Friday-specific post series where I bring you five items on a theme. What’s the theme this week? Vampire songs!
When I was little, I wanted to be a Jem Girl. More than twenty years and a new IDW comic reboot series later I still want to be a Jem Girl. Unlike the recent movie adaptation – which annihilated everything that made the cartoon series amazing and upset William Shatner – this new comic series…
I didn’t want this to be my first real post on this blog, but I guess it will be. My first encounter with David Bowie was as a litle girl watching Labyrinth, and I don’t think I am alone in that. I was born in December 1986, not quite half a year after the movie’s…
We all like to set ourselves goals with the start of the new year, and I am no exception. This year I have decided to improve my web presence, and one aspect of that is with regular blogging. So with a fresh install of WordPress shouting “Hello, world!” at me, let’s begin! My name is…
