This is my fall back plan: Short story: The day my heart stopped beating

This is my fall back plan. I make it up as I go. Monday, 31 October 2011. Short story: The day my heart stopped beating. I've been meaning to post this for a while, but just never got around to it. This is the revised/redrafted version of a story I wrote late last year. It was inspired by the sudden appearance of a bench on a patch of grass I walk through on my way to and from the train station every day. I hope you enjoy it. 8220;That was the day my heart stopped beating.”. She looks sad, staring off in...

This is my fall back plan: Still Alive, Still Writing
http://thisismyfallbackplan.blogspot.com/2013/05/still-alive-still-writing.html
This is my fall back plan. I make it up as I go. Thursday, 23 May 2013. Still Alive, Still Writing. So with Posterous gone, I’ve moved my personal blog here. I had to import each entry manually, which is tedious enough that a few of the posts didn’t make it over—basically everything from last year, and I think maybe also one thing from 2010. All of the personal essays are up, though. I have a couple of cool features coming up—one gaming-related and one not. The gaming one is a biggie (5,000 wor...As for ...

This is my fall back plan: Adapt or Die: The Perilous, Uncertain Landscape of Current and Future Video-Game Magazines
http://thisismyfallbackplan.blogspot.com/2014/07/adapt-or-die-perilous-uncertain.html
This is my fall back plan. I make it up as I go. Thursday, 24 July 2014. Adapt or Die: The Perilous, Uncertain Landscape of Current and Future Video-Game Magazines. Games were far from a big thing when dedicated video-game magazines first emerged in the early 1980s with titles such as Computer and Video Games. UK), Computer Gaming World. US), and Australian Commodore Review. Yet magazines were slow to adapt their strategy, and even today these traditional content forms dominate. Of the couple of doze...

This is my fall back plan: On love, marriage, and Blue Valentine
http://thisismyfallbackplan.blogspot.com/2011/10/on-love-marriage-and-blue-valentine.html
This is my fall back plan. I make it up as I go. Sunday, 30 October 2011. On love, marriage, and Blue Valentine. My brother got married a couple of days ago. I thought it fitting to revisit something I wrote back in February about love and marriage. Jump to the end for a quick note about the contrast in my experience. You always hurt the one you love—sung remarkably (and surprisingly) well by Dean (Ryan Gosling)—is the somewhat-haunting theme of the movie. But must this be true? Posted by Richard Moss.

This is my fall back plan: August 2013
http://thisismyfallbackplan.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
This is my fall back plan. I make it up as I go. Sunday, 25 August 2013. The birth of Kenya's games industry and other July articles. I meant to write this a few weeks ago, but I’ve been busy moving house, keeping up on assignments, and getting my workload back to full time (which I'm now happy to say is becoming the norm — I only eased off because of the move). One was on a guy called Tom Koska. The other was a rather lengthy report. It’s also a story that I lucked my way into. I got an email ...But it ...
