My Jam

The Basics:

I have a day job in sales. It allows me to squander my money on things like food, clothes, mortgage,  and utility payments.

After I blow a large chunk of my money on the things mentioned above, I tend to spend the rest of it wisely across several hobbies:

• Occasional Article Writer: I also write articles for outdoor mags (as a ghost writer) and early on in the return of Compute!’s Gazette as TD Bauer.
• Fishing! Hiking! Canoe Tripping, Hunting: No link for this, sorry.
• Buying and reading books.
• Writing fiction and nonfiction. I have been writing for a long time and have scores of unfinished works. However, I am getting into self-publishing some of those works, using LLMs to do my editing and internal layout designs. For more on this check out my fiction at Stories Page and my Nonfiction here. I also dabble in writing TTRPG content, which you can follow here on my Gaming Page.
• Retro computing (C64, C128, Amiga, DOS, Raspberry Pi). Live CRPGs like The Bard’s Tale, Wasteland, The Legacy of the Ancients, The Legend of Blacksilver, Windwalker, Pools of Radiance, Deathlord… and the list goes on and on…

Social Media:

X: Formerly known as Twitter: I can of course be followed over on ‘X’ for those so inclined to follow dweebs like me. I don’t post much. Here is the link: FOLLOW ON ‘X’ IF YOU DARE!!!

Instagram: I post here as well, but no more than I do on X. Here is the link: FOLLOW ON INSTAGRAM!!!

Goodreads: I also have an account of Goodreads, but to be honest I don’t keep up with it too much. I tend to log in a few times per year and try and clean up my reading list – it doesn’t go so well. You can find me here on Goodreads!!!
