Most video game worlds seem like they would be pretty horrific to live inside.
Doom? Diablo? Resident Evil? Mortal Kombat?
No thank you!
Even some of the milder environments seem like they’d have significant drawbacks. I don’t particularly like mushrooms, for instance, so I guess Mario and the Mushroom Kingdom are out.
but…
Pokémon seems like it’d be pretty fun.
Here are the benefits, as I see them:
- Free Healthcare: Pokémon Centers don’t charge for treatment.
- Stable Economy: The price of Pokéballs has remained consistent for decades.
- Less Pollution: Most people just ride bikes.
Plus, there’s ample travel opportunities. Oh, and it’s easy to identify untrustworthy people… just avoid folks with an “R” on their shirt or hat.
Good morning and happy Monday, friends!
Well, it’s been an interesting week—one full of detours! After all the rain I mentioned in my previous update, several major streets remained flooded. Apparently, there was also a water main break somewhere close to our house, so I guess water was flowing up from the ground as fast as it was also falling from the sky. How terrifying. But in short, we lost all direct routes home from the highway.
Now for the good news: I finished my newest set of manuscript edits and sent them back to Weiser. The next phase of the process, I’m told, will be them sending back the typeset version of my book.
My podcast was featured on Tal Gur’s Elevate Society. You can view the article here.
And my ginger seems to be flowering!
I’ve never seen ginger flower before, so I’m pretty excited to watch it happen.
The weekend was a welcomed respite. Selene and I took a break and did some fun things, like paying another visit to this delicious seafood restaurant I’ve been thinking about for a few weeks.
On Saturday afternoon, we went to the movies and saw Clayface. It was pretty disturbing, but quite enjoyable.
And that evening, we walked around a Día de los Muertos event in West Palm.
It wasn’t quite as big as the one we attended in Lake Worth, but it was still fun. The property contained a bunch of art studios and several artists had set up tents. We watched them paint.
Alright, we’re overdue for a new episode of M3. If I can get through this week’s list of assignments, I’ll be able to finish it up!
In the meantime, I’ve got confirmation that I’ll be teaching upcoming workshops at the following festivals. If you want to talk about runes, come find me here:
That’s all for now, friends. Stay tuned for more soon!
