Wil I think it is a wonderful idea, that was all kinds of awesome and live streaming from locations would be really cool.
Watch about a stupid live tour of my messy office, and hear me tell you a story.
I made a stupid cellphone video that was actually a live stream tour on my Ustream channel of my messy office. Then I read a short story. Yaaaaay! The stream was broken once when Paul called me (way to steal focus, Paul!), so there are two videos: If you watched it (live or recorded, pleas...
Absolutely brilliant! It was reminiscent of goosebumps for certain. I felt like a kid again.
Flash Fiction: The Monster In My Closet
About two hours ago, I thought to myself, "'There's a monster in my closet' would be a neat way to start out one of those scary short stories I loved to read when I was in middle school." I wrote it down, then wrote a little more and a little more. Right around the time I realized I had no idea ...
Oh damn, you have gotten good my friend. I am left wanting more. Nicely done.
HUNTER is coming...
Check it out: A little excerpt from Hunter can be found in this post. Or you can keep reading here: Pyke chased the girl down a street still wet with the afternoon’s rainfall. A thin sliver of moon was glowing behind the thinning clouds, but it wasn’t bright enough to pierce the darkness betwe...
Wil.. I hate to bring this up but did anyone reach you about Trae(RunsWithScissors)?
"In fact, I've never seen her this excited for me to go play D&D."
In my keynote to PAX East last year, I said that gaming is the foundation of, and the mortar that holds together, the strongest and longest lasting friendships in my life. I've been playing with the same guys since high school, and even though we all live in different states (and some of us live...
Anne is such a hottie wil! I can't believe your boys are so grown now. amazing. They grow up way too fast. You are a very rich man my friend :)
In which I am a proud father
"I have to tell you," Jonathan Coulton's wife said to me on the last night of the cruise, "how wonderful your boys are." "I have two daughters," Peter Sagal's wife told Anne, "and I hope this isn't weird or creepy, but I really hope they meet guys like your sons." "Dude, you know you raised your...
lol we have a community on facebook. we are all still pretty close. They all miss the old days though.
We Demand MacNeil!
A friend of mine recently accomplished one of those things which is worthy of being celebrated with champagne, so I went to the store this afternoon to get her a bottle. I picked out a bottle of Veuve Cliquot, which is Anne's and my favorite, and walked up to the register to pay. On my way, I th...
Just noticing that those cards are eerily prophetic.
What does the tape ends card mean?

Please stay safe and enjoy your trip.
A whole lot of bizarre things are happening around the world right now. Birds falling from the sky and fish washing up dead in the tons. Would like to talk to you about discussing this stuff when you get back.
Happy New Year. I'm on a boat.
I'm going to be on JoCo Cruise Crazy until January 8. I thought it was kind of important to stay connected, keep Twittering and blogging and Internetting while I was on a boat, but after much deliberation, decided that I will not be purchasing Holland America's Yes, We Use The Whole Fist int...
You are SUCH a dork.

I don't think you need a lot of context from me to set this up, so I'll just say that this happened last night on Twitter: Me: @BrentSpiner: Just watched you on Leverage - You ROCKED. You were such an awesome dirtbag, and I know a thing or two about playing dirtbags. Brent: @wilw Thanks Wil. I...

who's gonna drive you home tonight?
Anne and I took Nolan out to Glendale tonight for this art thing he likes to do. After we dropped him off, Anne said, "Hey, I want to have a dinner date with my husband." Bonus, unexpected dinner dates are always awesome, so I didn't even put up token resistance, and we had an awesome meal toget...

charity poker tourney in santa monica this weekend
My friends who own Fleet Street Games are sponsoring a charity poker tournament this weekend in Santa Monica. It's called All-In for Scleroderma. Now, I know what you're thinking: "Why in the world would I go all-in for scleroderma? Doesn't scleroderma suck?" Yes, yes it does, but "All In To Hel...

OMFG who WOULDN'T go completely pathetic over meeting the man?
I am so jealous right now.
I have wanted to meet Kevin since before Project Greenlight. I don't go fangirl over many people but I would probably be a blithering idiot if I were ever that lucky.
Dang.. and that print is awesome!
*still jealous*
Neph
thirty-seven? in a row?
I met Kevin Smith at Comic-Con, back in 2000 or 2001. The encounter was so incredibly embarrassing, I can't bring myself to recall it, but can be summed up thusly: I made a complete fool of myself, and as a testament to his kindness, he didn't make me feel like a total asshole. (Note for the rec...

Oh damn wil!
I should learn from this, but I won't. We just moved again and the new town we are in has one of those cool old fashioned roller rinks just like the ones we went to when we were kids and my kids are dying for me to take them there, and while I know I should leave the skates off and just help them out.. I know that is just not going to happen. I am way to sentimental to not lace up the old skates and try not to break my neck. It's crazy how much different these things become when you get older. My god and we are NOT THAT OLD!
sheesh.
*lots of healing mojo to you my friend*
Neph
can i break just one rib?
Though based on actual events, some of this has been . . . enhanced . . . for dramatic effect. On Friday, I took Anne to the Moonlight roller rink for her birthday. It was totally awesome, and we had exactly the kind of fun we remembered having when we went to roller rinks as kids, which was kin...
