New podcast with the guys! Check it out:
Geeks in Space!
I know what you're thinking. Not another girl "gamer." Well, I'm not a "girl gamer" I'm female gamer. What's the difference? I don't do it for attention. In fact, I'd rather just be one of the guys.

Is Science Fiction Science FACT?
So it turns out that Elder-Geek.com was interested in my calculations, so I wrote a feature article on it:
Is Science Fiction Science FACT? - Death Star Physics

It's technically not a video game... but I think it was in one once...
Hello World:
I have calculated the minimum energy necessary to destroy Alderaan!
Isn't it beautiful? Yes, yes, it's on a napkin. I can't help it. I'm a nerd. The specifics to come later.

Best Day EVER!
A few days ago, Elder-Geek.com offer me a position on their staff! And of course... I TOOK IT! From this point forward, I will be writing for them officially! I'm super excited! I think that I'm going to do a series on DigiPen Institute of Technology. My boyfriend, Nate, currently goes there so I want to interview his game team, the TAG game team (a PAX10 game), an engineering student, and an art student. If I have time, I will probably interview a teacher too, but I'm not sure yet. If anyone out there has a game they want reviewed or a feature they want written (on absolutely anything video game related) just comment here and I'll try to write it for you!
