What Is Top Grift?

November 29, 2023 by Jon Del Arroz Leave a Comment

What’s going on everyone? I haven’t written a blog in a while so I figured I’d write a quick primer/explainer of what Top Grift is . It’s a deeply layered joke as far as the campaign goes, but there’s a very real, very good book at the bottom, which is not a joke — it […]

Terry Moore’s Motor Girl #1 Review (Spoiler Free)

November 7, 2016 by Jon Del Arroz Leave a Comment

Last week marked the release of Terry Moore’s new comic, Motor Girl #1. I’ve been eagerly awaiting this since the end of Rachel Rising, which is my favorite comic book series of all time, which you should check out the omnibus here.  I’m a bit late in reviewing because of other obligations, but here goes!

The Five Books That Got Me Interested In Writing

October 18, 2016 by Jon Del Arroz Leave a Comment

I’m going to take a brief detour from my NaNoWriMo prep, as today I started thinking about when I became interested in writing, and what pushed me to it. Honorable mention has to go to the television show, Babylon 5, as reading those scripts opened my eyes to in depth story telling at a young […]

NaNoWriMo Prep: The Anatomy Of A Novel Part I

October 17, 2016 by Jon Del Arroz Leave a Comment

After my last post, I received a question asking: how much prep can you really do for NaNoWriMo? And that’s a really good question.  I’m aware that there’s different types of writers out there, some people just write and go, letting the flow take them where it needs to. This really isn’t for a writer […]

On Space Opera

August 22, 2016 by Jon Del Arroz Leave a Comment

Space Opera has been a sub-genre that’s excited me since I discovered the subgenre of Science Fiction at about 12 years of age, when I first discovered Babylon 5 on television. Truth be told, I knew of it much earlier through Star Wars, but I didn’t recognize that as space opera until much later. All […]
