I was running through the spell lists this morning, searching in particular for any necromancy spells because I couldn't remember if or how many I had included. There aren't a ton, but there are a reasonable number to spark the interest and research of budding necromancers. However, what I also discovered was that I had several different spells that did the same thing. Suddenly it occurred to me that this was a much more effective editing practice for games than the standard proof reading style.
Tools For Finishing Projects
Renaissance has been on the back burner for a while now. To continue that analogy, not only has it been on the back burner, but the heat has been set to 'low' (or 'lo' as most stove dials have it). There simply hasn't been time available, with all the other priorities in life, to work on it much. However, I have made some progress and wanted to touch on that and the tools/practices which have enabled me to do so.
Taxation: Fixed
So with all the talk of Romney's tax plan versus Obama's tax plan and blah blah blah in the media these days, I decided to do a little research of my own. In the process, I though, hey, I wonder how hard it really is to develop a tax plan. Turns out, if you don't complicate it, it's not that hard. Admittedly, I don't have 100% hard evidence for these numbers, but for the purposes of this exercise, they are reasonably reliable.
Organic Alchemy
Crack open your Organic Chemistry books folks. Enroll in your local college's Chemistry program. Alchemy is here and apparently it's never been easier!
Political Assumptions
It seems in any given election that everyone who is going to vote already knows who they are going to vote for. Furthermore, no amount of arguing or writing seems capable of changing the minds of anyone in any portion of the spectrum. There is a LOT of writing that goes on regarding politics, government and candidates but those who pay attention to such things do so only in two formats: Either in Familiar Consumption or in Filtered Consumption.
The Importance of Other Projects
I have read in a number of places that it is important, as a creative person, to do something creative everyday to further your talent. If your creative art is writing, write every day. If it is painting, paint every day. You get the idea. This is not something I am good at, but like my projects I am a work in progress.
The Health Question
We often ask ourselves, "why bother?". Why bother eating healthy if I'm going to hate every meal, constantly yearn for something more and only net myself an extra 2 - 5 years of life, if that. After all, aren't 60 to 70 years of good meals preferable to 62 - 75 years of blah meals? Even though I still struggle with implementing the change, I can offer you two very good reasons for attempting to do so. The first is your children, those you have now or those you may someday have, especially the ones you may someday have. The second is that everything you've been told about eating healthy is a lie.
