It was the warmest Halloween in memory. The trick-or-treaters wore some amazing costumes. The most common were Ghostface (Scream) and Michael Myers. There was also one young Freddy Krueger in my neighbourhood, which warmed my heart There were also a collection of the usual superheroes and hockey players. I did not see any examples of Jason Voorhees, who is just as iconic as the other 1980’s slashers. Perhaps it’s a sign that a new reboot of Friday the 13th is in order.
What a ride! I had so much fun playing this. If you are a fan of Trek, and specifically TNG, then I know you will enjoy this immersive and visually-stunning game.
This one took me by storm. I loved building it, but it was one hell of a journey.
Since I recently reconnected with this former hobby, I have realized that it is a wonderful method to express my creativity while also doing something that significantly lowers stress levels.
I recently posted two stories about my journey revisiting a hobby I’d left over four decades ago.
I previously posted on the blog about my experience getting back to a hobby I’d abandoned four decades ago. It was likely due to a lack of proper supplies, tools, paints and so on. Growing up, we just didn’t have much money and my models generally looked pretty bad.
It’s been a stressful last few months, no doubt due to the production and release of my latest thriller, A Blanket of Steel. Because of this, while I await my signing tour this Spring, I’ve decided to revisit a former hobby from over four decades ago. And boy, I had no idea how much fun it would be.
Yesterday, Paramount Pictures announced a shuffling of their tentpole films on their upcoming slate. Some of the movies include Top Gun 2, Mission Impossible 7, and Dungeons & Dragons. Embedded in the announcement was a mention of an “Untitled Star Trek” film, to be released on June 9, 2023 and produced by JJ Abrams.
