Moving sucks.  And why do I need to collect so much heavy shit?  Books, Comics, swords… Seriously? Swords.  Why did I decide that was a thing?

This post started it’s life as a #Nerdy9th post over on G+ but it’s something that I feel like I have to reiterate over here from time to time because there are people in the world who don’t get that I don’t actually hate comics. In spite of all the bullshit, I still love comics.… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #364 – I Love Comics

So, a friend of mine prefaced the question, “Have you seen what Nick Spencer did this time?” with “How’s your blood pressure?”  So, I knew it was going to be sinking to new lows.

Not long after that… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #360 – Interview with the creators of The Watch: Anna Kreider and Andrew Medeiros

Dead Scare is now available.    

Yeah, I’m on this again.  In part because Chris Evans is a fucking treasure and has been fighting with David Duke on twitter, if you want to find Captain Bigot’s twitter, you can google that shit. I’m not linking.  In case you forgot, David Duke was Grand Wizard (and they call us dorks) of the… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #359 -Captain America does not approve of your shenanigans

Today I’d like to bring you a quick email interview with Elsa S. Henry, creator of Dead Scare, a powered by the Apocalypse game coming out on February 14th.  Because what says “Happy Valentine’s Day” like a zombie game? What were your early gaming experiences like?  How did they lead you to designing games? I… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #358 – Interview with Elsa S. Henry about Dead Scare (RPG)
