Birds

I have observed 583 individual species of wild bird, over 7 different countries. This means I have seen roughly 5.83% of all bird species.
My eBird profile.

I do not have a favorite bird. They're all fascinating examples of the pressures of natural selection and deserving of our care and respect. Plus they're all dinosaurs.

Blue-headed vireos are pretty lovely though. As are saw-whet owls (see photo).

Band

I make music with my friend Erik Moody and a few others in a band called Robber & Thief.  All of our albums are available for download through Bandcamp.

​Game

At the age of ten I received a copy of the Monstrous Manual for Advanced Dungeons & Dragons from my grandmother. I have been playing, reading, and collecting roleplaying games ever since. My current passion is for the story-first narrative mechanics created by Vincent Baker and now known as the Powered by the Apocalypse system. My hard disk is full of abandoned game mechanics and campaign ideas, but currently I'm tinkering with a monster-hunting game based loosely on the classic Ravenloft campaign setting for AD&D.
