Hello, my name is Melinda and I do quite a few things. I am a writer / designer living in Texas. I currently run the Y2K Quarterly literary magazine. My work can be read in Rejection Letters, Free Radicals Magazine, and HAD. This site is for my personal blog and various project updates. You can read my self published work at Moonlit Radio.

I'm taking a quick break this evening from my RPG story to air out my head a little. So as with any story I write I do a bunch of research and refresh my memory on how things were or are. What I remember about a video game from twenty...
Last night I spent some time talking to folks about books. I have several half finished stories that need to get wrapped up and I wanted to plan how I published them to get max eyes on words. Most people I know don't sit and read books....
I have too many pots on the stove. The magazine, the podcast, the ramen website, my own writing, the shop... I can't do all of that on my own. So. If Hardcopy doesn't take off by the end of the year, I'll just sunset it after Christmas...
I spent the entire day cleaning and fixing up Game Boys for the market event in May. The consoles will run around 150-250 dollars depending on if they have mods or just new shells and batteries. Knowing full well I might sell a single...
Thyroid doc visit tomorrow. I haven't been checking on my emails or anything outside of phone messages for about a week now. Friend showed me a 20 yr old photo from college and it reminded me of how I wasn't smart enough to get anything...
I go grocery shopping about twice a week and it seems there is a new "high" protein variant of nearly every product on the shelf. They have been doing protein cereals and yogurt for a good while now because those hide the whey powder...
I've been researching how to do that whole V-tuber animated character modeling thing. Given most of my work is done in vector format in Illustrator I think I can get a decent animation from the process. But first I needed something to...
I've spent a while making updates to the site. Not wanting it to look like a store or anything I went around looking at other review/discussion style websites and took cues from them. There are still a handful of bugs hanging around but...
When I first got my Gamecube after graduating high school I bought a few fun games for it. Bloody Roar and Sonic Adventure 2. No actual Nintendo labels tho. Those cost $59.99. Being used to the way games typically worked, I expected the...
I've seen the handful of other posts over the years about Eboshi and all the other Ghibli characters being neither good or evil. I mean, that's what makes a good character, right? You don't want the hero to be good to a fault or else...
There were several marathons and races going on this weekend, but the coolest one was the Barkley Marathons. You can google what they are, it's pretty interesting but I have no interest or time to get involved with distance running. The...
I'm busy with stuff. Will update more later.
Just because I want to do something doesn't entitle me to start trying, and the opposite - I can't ignore things that need to be done before I waste time on hobbies. (Just because I want to open a store doesn't mean I deserve to.) BUT In...
It is very rare for me to read non fiction. The last time was during the pandemic when I read all six volumes of Virginia Woolf's letters. I would much rather, and get more out of, read personal stuff about the author than read about...
If you haven't watched all of season 1 you need to bounce out of this page right now. Right Now Get Out Hit The Back Button. Right so, a while back I did a long post about how if you didn't like the pacing of the first season you were...
