Happy 2016!
Hey, everyone! Happy 2016! May all your coming days not kill you! I thought I would start things out by running through my 2015 greatest hits. And by “greatest hits”, I mean the blog posts that I feel were particularly near and dear to my heart.
There was that time I named a bunch of things good in 2014, because that’s a good way to start every new year.
There was that time I wrote a prologue to a game I love so much I tattooed it on my body.
I think this means I win the "biggest fan" contest, @AvidlyWildGames.
Take that as you will. pic.twitter.com/RQPCLw8yWI

There was that time I continued writing fan fiction, because goddamn that game is amazing and I love it to pieces.
There was that time I proposed to my lady friend with the help of Enrico Colatoni.
Yeah, it's a Snitch ring. If you don't like it, I don't care.
There was that time I was fed up with idiots talking about Die Hard and went ahead and posted a really long argument about its relationship with masculinity.
There was that time I reviewed Mad Max and Not a Hero. Between one of these word-piles and a shirt I made in celebration of how awesome a character was, I got a sweet new avatar.
One guess where this beautiful thing is from.
There was that time I saw a terrible movie.
There was that time I introduced an exercise to help people produce not-shit content.
There was that time I resumed traipsing through the foggiest resort town in the world.
Rock and roll, James. Rock. And. Roll.
There was that time I reminisced about learning to love music through Eliza Carthy, to which she said thanks.
@JonathanCBruce thankyou Xe

Finally, there was that time I played Until Dawn and found it to be the most exciting thing to happen to the horror genre since… um… a long time ago.
Such a great game.
It was a really great year, over all. I wrote an entire book (coming soon!), plus I provided a book’s worth of content in all the blog content I provided. That’s an excess of 200,000 words, which I think is pretty impressive. Hell, that’s most of Project Northwoods! I had a bunch of different interviews, one with the magnificent Jenny Trout, and I even hosted a couple of guests. It's been a wild ride!
Thank you, one and all. Whether you’re a longtime follower or just getting started combing through my seemingly random fits of writing, I appreciate you. I hope your 2015 was pretty damn great, and I’m hoping that 2016 is even better.
