The Probelm with (Writing) Commitment

Let's by frank, the main reason that most blogs don't last past a certain timeframe isn't the lack of information, but instead the writer and his/her lack of wanting to write the information down.

But it is the writing that I should do, whether anyone reads this or not!

I glued the two sides together and made sure to put the dowel on the inside. This chainsword idea was quick to make and required very little close work. I cut triangle pieces out of foam and glued each one into the spo...

How to do it right, with cosplay weapons and shield

I know that when I was their age, I used an old black hoodie and took some cardboard triangles, folded them in the center, along a line with the point, and then taped them onto the top of my hood. I then had an old fabric mask, like the one the Lone Ranger has, and put that on. While it may not have been right on, I can remember now, still, the image I saw when I looked at my reflection in the neighbor's glass sliding door. I looked like Batman. For a kid, at least for me, I felt like Batman, I felt indestructible. I remembered how I jumped up on our playhouse and swingset and imagined that I was climbing to the bad guy or jumping down to the next fight and how fearsome I must have looked. Was I cosplaying or just pretending or are they...
