Welcome to The Hearth

Welcome the The Hearth, my first blog. That the intro follows the first post should give some indication as to how experienced I am in this medium. The Hearth is a simple experiment I'm running, testing nothing more than my own ability to write a blog.

The Hearth is going to be extremely unprofessional. Irregular, unscheduled updates will cover anything my thoughts fancy at the time, which is most often going to be impressions on games, film, books and other fluffy entertainment. As an (unpublished) writer, you may also see some of the less-horrible of my works pop up here. Trust that they will be carefully selected to make myself seem much more talented than I am.

So who the fuck am I? My name is David, and my life is about as interesting as my name. I'm studying writing at uni, which I fucking love, and before that I studied game design, which was okay. I enjoy everything a mid-twenties, middle-class Australian does, though a particular emphasis can be laid on games and film. I take part in a weekly D&D game with a small group of friends, and we suffer together under the tyrannical rule of our sadistic dungeon master.

So that's what you've got to look forward to. There may be some people out there who can stomach my incomparable self-indulgence, and hopefully you will find something of value here. To those who can't, I offer my heartfelt sympathies, and hope that the Rest Of The Internet will suffice.

Welcome to The Hearth.
