Sorry about putting this here guys. There’s this new site that has been stealing all my content (and content from a lot of other great bloggers) called Anime Sensai. They really suck. But I figure I might as well use the opportunity for some advertising. So if you actually came across this post on Anime…

I Accidentally Took Three Weeks Off Blogging and This Is What Happened
Hello everyone, I’m back. Some of you may not have known that I was gone at all. Good! That’s how it’s supposed to be. This is what happened:
Finally Learning to Moderate My Comments
When I started this blog, I knew very little about blogging. Not just about being a blogger but about blogs in general. I had participated in some forums but when it came to blogs, I generally read the post and moved on. To be honest, it took me a while to notice that blogs even…
So many words, So little thoughts – Reviewing shows you have nothing to say about
For those of us who write anime reviews, especially those brave souls who do so on an episodic basis, there will come a time when you are faced with a show you just don’t have that much to say about. You know…it was fine. I can hear some of you already, just don’t review it if…
Why (and how) I Post Every Day
I’m sure a lot of you already know what I’m going to say in this post. After all, this is a republishing of an old post! So I ran out of inspiration, because I post more or less daily, and decided to call on Lita for help since she did mention once that she pretty…
When Hobbies Use To Be Hobbies
In case you didn’t know, I consider this blog a hobby. I do it for fun. Just for fun. I don’t ever plan to have a carrier in anything remotely related and I didn’t study in a connected field. When I created the blog the possibility of making any sort of profit from it never…
Blogging as a Grown Up
I feel like this is going to need a disclaimer. Because I know people can get touchy when I use terms like “Grown Up”. I remember watching a Jenna Marbles and hearing her explain that to her, being a grown-up means buying stuff you hate. And I love that definition. You can probably find the…
The Many Sides of the Monetization Coin
Right now, I’m involved in an ongoing Kaizen at work. Basically, my input is required to restructure our entire office procedures and set up, plus my usual responsibilities. This has been a time-consuming venture of debatable value, that has left me much less time than usual to write posts. Almost no time in fact. More…
Top 5 Things I Like About Having an Anime Blog
I can’t believe I haven’t already written this post. Maybe I have and I just forgot but I couldn’t find it in my archives. Blogging can be a bit of a challenge at times, so it’s nice to remind ourselves, what some of the best parts of it are. Obviously, this list is going to…
The “Good” Reasons to Start Your Anime Blog
You run across it sometimes. Posts or comments that mention good vs bad reasons to start an anime blog. This actually exists in a lot of communities. Notions about having the right intentions behind a YouTube or Twitch channel are occasionally floated. And it’s sort of an odd concept. Like, do you really need to…
3 Reasons I Read Anime Reviews
I was thinking about it, and for me, there are 3 big reasons I read anime reviews. Basically, they boil down to information community and entertainment. Depending on the reason, I’m going to look for different be things in each review.
Tools of the Trade
It seems like it’s been forever since I wrote a post about writing posts. I use to share my thoughts on blogging fairly often. But lately, it seems I just don’t have as many. Oh, noes… my mind is going.
The Secret to my Creativity is…Boredom?
This probably isn’t that uncommon. I’m sure a lot of people come up with interesting art because they are bored. However, these days I have had such a perfect illustration of how this applies to me and I’m very surprised. Let me share my experience.
Do You Miss Blog Tags?
When I started blogging tags were the rage. I would often get more than one in a week and I quickly became unable to keep up with them no matter how much I wanted to. But it was still a lot of fun. Even when I wasn’t getting personally tagged, I would see them on…
An Ode to My Hilarious Hater
ED – I wrote this over a year ago and left it in my drafts. I thought it was a bit too petty and it made me sound kinda lame and potentially a little mean to “Neil”. However, when I was cleaning my drafts folder, I reread it and thought parts of it were funny…
