Wil Wheaton Talks About Dice

My parents have sold their house, and are moving out in a couple of months. In order to make the move a little easier, my dad has been going through all the junk in the basement, and gathered all of my old stuff, and all of my brother’s into a couple of piles. Now, most of this stuff is really useless to me at this point, and much of it I haven’t even seen for maybe 20 years or more. I’m not sure what to do with it all, short of putting it on Kijiji or giving it to Goodwill.
In one box was a bag of dice, if you can believe it. My dad wanted to make sure I had all my gaming dice from back when I used to play D&D. It was actually my brother’s bag of dice, since he used to keep it in an old Crown Royal bag (as many of us geek gamers did), but I didn’t belabour the point. I brought the bag home anyway, and pooled the dice with my own, which I had to dig out of a closet.
So now I have a large bunch of dice, back from when I was a kid. Don’t know what to do with it. It’s not a very interesting story, so here’s a clip of Wil Wheaton talking about dice.

About This Site

As a guy who occasionally curates art shows and wrangles artists together, I often have to edit and post artist bios, profile pictures, and artwork images. This can be a problem, since many artists and writers aren’t used to selling themselves. Artists rarely know how to present their art for display in a brochure, and writers aren’t used to writing about themselves.

Writers often treat the bio like it’s an interview or something. Maybe like they’re having a conversation with you, the reader. While it may work sometimes, the most common way to write a bio is to write in the 3rd person.

I’m like those writers, and I’m talking to you directly, unlike the common way to do a bio. You should see my About page. It makes sense to me, since this is a bit which describes my blog’s website. When I get famous enough that I don’t have time to talk to you, I’ll have an intern write everything in 3rd person. Until then, you get to talk to me.

Like blogs of old, this one is a personal document of the comings and goings of me. Articles I’ve written, links I’ve posted, videos I liked, etc. Here, a first-person perspective is the way to go, at least for now. So, this is my site. I’m D. H. McKee, a sometimes artist, sometimes writer. Mostly just a guy on the internet.
