(Blog) Some plans and where I stand

Hello readers! I hope everything is going well on your end as it is for me. This is one of those rare moments where I post some personal stuff that may or may not interfere or tie with my creative projects. There's also going to be some plans I have in store for the future so that I can better manage, organize and track my work. 

First off is some New Dawn Initiative stuff. I've not yet touched base on that for a while but I'm sure to bring in some new materials for the coming week. Expect a couple articles and some stories on the series. 

Second; next week I will be back in college for my last semester for my duel major associates. It has been a long time coming given how different community college works and all that, especially given some early year complications. I expect my days to be short there since I've so few classes left to get my two degrees. Though that doesn't mean I won't have as much free time to devote into writing given the kind of school projects this semester will bring. 

Third; I am working on a novella. For the past several weeks I've been devoting my down times to working on a Gothic literature piece, primarily Cosmic Horrors centered containing elements of Cyberpunk dystopia with Noir undertones. As it stands, I am working on the halfway point of the story and it will continue to grow further down the lines as the days go on. 
I have been debating with myself whether or not to put this piece up online or whether or not to self-publish and sell it through amazon. I've been meaning to find a method of stabilizing myself financially and I figured this was the only way I could without restricting licensing and content issues that publishers may impose on me. However, I will publish the first one or two chapters on this blog to get a sense of understanding from the audience's take on my work. (Meaning you folks.) 

PLEASE NOTE: The first two chapters do not represent the final draft of my piece and there will be changes and additions to the piece. They also serve as an example of the tone and feel of the work as well as to garner feedback to get a good understanding on the direction to take this piece. 

There will also be some changes and edits to my older previous works so they are up to date to the current writing style I've been implementing. Take care and lets look forward to a beautiful fall!

NDI: Guide to New Dawn Initiative      To understand anomalies, one must understand the necessary principals and procedures that NDI adheres to.

(Blog) World Health Organization Fallacy. Or, how do I Psychology?

Videogames. What can be said about them? They are a fun and interactive gaming medium that immerses players into a world of adventure, action, coded in a way that  will make people feel the accomplishment of challenging themselves and... basically just having a stress-reliever. It is a way that makes us feel comfort and joy during our down times. So why then has there been so many controversial issues involving them? It is amazing how a majority of the controversy we seen in the past decade or two involves videogames in some ways. Many of these claims such as videogames are harmful to minors and it teaches children to become murders and killers when it has been proven many times to not be the case. (Case in point; mentally disturbed individuals suffering from bullying, domestic abuse, problems with school and peer-pressure.) Games were an outlet for them, and one could say it is a primary motivator. Bug I tend to disagree, as correlation does not equal causation. The wonders of Psycho

Things

Okay I know I said a while ago that I was going to make an update here explaining my absence back in January, but I've not gotten around to it then. It hadn't occurred to me until just now. So, I really owe you an explanation. Things have been rather chaotic with my life since last year. Since January came about, I've only just begun getting my life together. I don't really like to dump my problems on you guys and the fact that I am writing this now already defeats the purpose of what I want this blog to be about. But I want to explain myself to you, and know that I'm bouncing back into the fray of things. Around last may, my grandmother suffered an injury in which she fell off her chair.  She sprained her foot and hurt her hand, but because of her fragile nature, her recovery time can be rather poor. Coupled with the fact that she is a diabetic because she has to use this pacemaker that's only working her heart up to 80% efficiency. I haven't had much o
