2014: The Highlight Reel

Here’s a brief rundown of 2014 as it flowed by in this space!

Before links to specific posts and whatnot, a few notes on some series stuff: I did my traditional Ask Me Anything! games in February and August, and I finally put the whole Fixing the Prequels series to bed, finishing up on Revenge of the Sith.

Also, I didn’t blog about movies much, for some reason — probably because I spent a great deal of my writing time this year focused on my own fiction rather than other forms of writing. I do still write about books, but for the most part, my book-related commentary is shifting to my Goodreads account. I welcome followers and friends over there, though! I will still blog about books in this space, but in a more specific kind of way, not so much as “reviews” but as long-form quotes or ruminations on the content thereof. (And generally I don’t offer bad reviews of books, because if I’m not enjoying a book I simply stop reading it.)
