  • Anxiety When Gaming

    Many of you are going to find this pretty silly, but that’s okay. This is a post about me and for me. I suffer from anxiety while playing competitive games and especially Fortnite: Battle Royale.

  • Gaming for Fun and Community

    I have been working on growing a small community of like-minded people by streaming on Twitch and posting videos to YouTube, and I’ve been really enjoying it.

  • NomadicGamersEh?

    A friend of mine from high school recently asked what I thought about her changing her gaming/blog brand and that conversation progressed to me helping her make the switch. She chose a new domain name, after some great back and forth with me tossing ideas at her. I’ll list those ideas at the bottom of… Read more

  • What’s New?
