Today was quite a fun day looking into youth engagement in Australia. Met so many great young people, and I'm quite excited to see what happens next! 👍😁 #youngpeople #youth #youthengagement #youthwork #government #policy #grassroots #holistic #ayac #yep #fya #ryss #personcentered #strengthsbased #strength #publicspeaking

I -LOVE- Inspiration!

I really love it, when you’re just going about your business, doing your everyday living and whatnot, and then wham! this seemingly-random thing just pops into your head, and it makes you go, “Huh…  That’s weird…  But interesting!”  And then, whether or not you decide to focus on that for a while, and further contemplate it, it can blossom into this super-cool idea!

I just had a super-awesome idea for a new race of creatures that I’m most -definitely- going to be using in my future games!  I really like where this race is going, so I just might even copyright it when I publish my next RPG system!  I can’t give out too much information about it (for obvious reasons!), but I -will- say that I’m really super-happy I’ve been forcing myself to contemplate new creatures and storylines for tabletop gaming the past few days:  It’s totally paid off!

For a little teaser, for those of you that will someday play one of my games (as I don’t think I’ll be restricting this particular type of being to just a single game setting), you will know what I’m talking about, when you go up against “Creatures based on musical perfection”!

All that’s left to mention, on top of being very thankful for the inspiration, is that another print run of “Are You A Changeling?” is due very soon, and we’ll have plenty available for sale at Midwest Furfest next month!

Also, by then, we should have it for sale online at www.EquestriaInspired.net around then, and then people all around the world can enjoy Changeling shenanigans! :D

Stay tuned for more!

Homework Stinks

Getting so intensely super-slammed with homework and tests right now that I'm truly longing for the days back when my imagination had the time to wander and be productive... I love keeping busy and all, but when I've got 13 chapters to read, 2 MAJOR exams, 3 essays to write, and a research paper that requires 3 full days of ethnographic observation with notes, interviews and documented citations... It's like all the teachers are collaborating together to drop the heaviest workload on their students in a single week -.- AYAC has been hurting because of lack of expansion development... Mass Effect: Unity, The Matrix, and Datamon have all been shelved :( Not a happy pony

(Overdue) Update

So much has been going on, as of late! I have started up school again, full time! And it's keeping me so busy, it's put a real big monkey wrench in my game developing time, and I really don't like it... Development has slowed down to a crawl, but at least I can announce that we're doing another print run of "Are You A Changeling?", and will have it at Midwest Furfest, not only for sale, but I'll personally be running several demos of the game over the course of that particular weekend! Also, as an added bonus, I will be throwing in a few extra rolls during sevral of these games, as a special sneak peek for some of what's coming up in the next few expansions! I've also been on a huge Albedo kick as of late, and after seeing that it's creator has decided to bring it back, I've been exremely motivated to play around with it's tabletop gaming system, and have even started my own local Albedo gaming revolution! So, all in all, I apologize for the slowness of postings... Heck, going back to school was actually a bit of a last-second decision in itself! But, things ARE still going on in the background, playtesting IS still being done, and multiple gaming systems ARE still being developed... Just a bit slower than anticipated, for a while. My pursuit of education might be a short-lived one, as I have been offered a Co-Ownership position for a local tabletop gaming, anime and geek social hub kinda place that might be sprouting up in Rockford, Illinois within the next 6 months, so... Yeah... A lot is going on in my life both for me, AND for Equestria Inspired's future!

If you have any questions, please feel free to message me here, as I would love to have another excuse to talk more on Tumblr here. Whether they be about me, or EquIns, or AYAC, or Albedo or any of the other games I'm currently developing/playing. I would love to share more, once I know what you Tumblrians would like to talk about!

Youth unemployment is steadily increasing - now at 27.3%. Working for free in job-like 'internships' displaces a real employee, not only compromising yourself but your peers as well.

Update whilst waiting for Chinese nahms:

So I'm sitting in a local Chinese resturaunt that I've never been to before, with my older brother in from California, and I randomly remembered that it's been too long since I posted here, so... Here we go!! "Are You A Changeling?" has been a huge success, and the first printing is almost sold out already, and Bronies all over the country (and even some around the world!) have been so wonderful in their supporting us in playing my games, giving me wonderful feedback, and even buying copies of AYAC!! It brings me such joy to see how much fun people have with games I've made/revamped/brought back from obscurity, like "Are You A Changeling?" and Mass Effect: Unity, and MLP: TOON!, and Inspireland and even old-school Albedo! It's both work AND fun, running games for such awesome people all of these weekends I'm at cons all over the country! I've now very recently been hit with a surge of inspiration to really hustle on the development of my battling monsters system which is still in it's thoughtform state (currently under the placeholder moniker of Datamon, for the time being, until I come up with an official name!) It also doesn't help that I've been watching Digimon a bunch! Anyway, dinner's here now, so I'mma enjoy my sweet and sour nahms now! Stay tuned!
