Hi there!
So, what brings you here? Well, feel free to look around, check out some blogging stuff, things like that. This place is going through some upgrades (again) because of the Patreon I’ve got going on these days. It’s now become the home to two novels being published as episodic content through the Patreon (Cycle of the Muse and Gamer Zone Revisited). Since you’re here, feel free to poke around – for the blogging type stuff, there’s about half a million words written on here over the span of a couple of decades.
I’ve broken things into sections down below – hopefully, you find something that catches your eye in one of those sections. And hopefully, it’s one of the episodic books, forcing you to join the Patreon 😉

Every diet or workout makes extraordinary health claims about what it can do for you. It’s all about the money – they either want your views, or they want you to buy a product (be it supplements or books, or maybe just a subscription to their channel.) That means I’m skeptical as hell of everyone’s claims. Hell, even if they say there’s a study backing…

OK, so I’m used to “meat protein” – where does one get all that vegetarian protein? That, to me, seemed to be one of the more daunting things. I’m doing vegetarian, not vegan, so it’s a bit easier. But, wanting to put in muscle mass and lose fat (not necessarily at the same time – weight is the higher priority) does make it a little…

So, here’s my first big observation about going on a vegetarian diet: faux meat is not really a substitute. It’s not that hard to go without meat at the moment – but, I’m only 3 days into it. There’s no ‘Cheeseburger In Paradise’ moment where I’m dreaming about meat. Part of that is probably ‘cause I already minimize my intake of red meat, so moving…

Why the vegetarian experiment? Why would a 50 year old definitely meat eating country boy decide to try meat free? As is often the case with me, there’s more than one reason for trying it. BTW, this is the kind of boring entry, ’cause it’s day 2 and nothing particularly interesting has happened. So this one ends up being about the motivation. Meat is an…
