I'm just letting interested scribes know that I've finally set aside a little part of the web for a blog of my own -- The Zhoth'ilam Folio. Among my many other daily ramblings, you can expect to find some brief thoughts on each of the books I read [like Realms novels for example, and the main reason I'm mentioning the blog here]. Feel free to leave comments, discuss other points of interest and, above all, enjoy!

I've started updating the Folio again. This time, it wasn't through any fault of my own. Blogspot's been acting kinda weird on this computer, so I've had to make entries from an older unit.

I don't think my blog's big enough for an ego the size of Wooly's.


Bah! How else do you expect to get any traffic?

Hehe...

That image is a little outdated. I should probably upload a more recent picture, since I've lost some weight and hair as well.

Another reason for updating my photo, I guess. Since I've since shaved the beard off.

And while we're on the subject of beards... Brian James, you should be proud!

Thank goodness! Wil and Dungeon-a-Day hasn't quite sated my blogging appetites recently...
The Sage Posted - 12 Mar 2009 : 14:58:51
Just a brief note to let interested scribes know that I'm back to semi-regular updates for the "Folio." With my studies done, I've got more time in the evening to update my blog, so expect some regular chatter to start occurring once again.
The Sage Posted - 08 Nov 2008 : 02:01:04
I know I've not been updating the Folio recently, but since work is calming down to it's normally-frantic levels now, I suppose I can devote some time to adding entries again... at least once every few days or so. I've also got some images coming of both the Lady K and myself attending a local Con here [and dressed appropriately, of course, as per the theme of the convention], and some sound files of my latest musical compositions to add.

Additionally, I'll be taking requests on how to improve the Folio at some point. And what you'd like to see discussed or topics covered and so forth.
The Sage Posted - 17 Oct 2008 : 16:14:46
For those who may be interested...

No, I haven't forgotten about the "Folio." I've just got a couple of really pressing deadlines to meet at work over the coming weeks, so it looks like my blog entries aren't going to be as "daily" as I would've liked. I'll try to keep it updated every few days.

No, no shes not bad at all, just thought that she may need it for her own protection!

And glad to hear about the pictures, O Sage of many visages and avatars

I keep meaning to purchase a few cans of that myself.

Aye, do you wanna go 50/50 on a case of it for Mrs. Hamster?

I like the feel your blog is developing, keep it up!

P.S. pictures please!

Is it another language's representation of Giant Space Hamster?

Heh. No.

As it is, I think the Giant Space Hamster, or at least the interpretation we know of it, deserves an entire book devoted to him -- rather than just a part of the language.



Such a book would be, in turns, hilarious, deeply profound, and mildly disturbing. Sometimes all at once.

Risking a silly question.....what the heck does "Zhoth'ilam Folio" signify?

I gaot a read on the folio part, but Zhoth'ilam has me at a loss.

Well if that isn't blog-worthy I wouldn't know what is!

Had...as in since shaved off, or was it a falsie?

Bookmarked and checked everyday!

Where's the pics old chap?
Chosen of Moradin Posted - 29 Aug 2008 : 16:40:51
Nice blog, Sage. Itīs bookmarked in a place of honor!
The Sage Posted - 29 Aug 2008 : 14:48:47
Eventually. I'm dropping tidbits about my work on the book almost every single day. I'll likely post much larger bits about it as I begin working through the draft itself. But that's a long way of yet.
The Red Walker Posted - 29 Aug 2008 : 02:11:47
Nice work, left you a comment!

When do we get to hear more about your novel in progress?
Daviot Posted - 27 Aug 2008 : 08:08:10
Consider it noted...and bookmarked even.
