So, I've gone back and forth on making this post because I fear it's going to be super self-serving, but I wanted to share with everyone a recent accomplishment of mine. Also, I have a LOT of keys to give away, so that evens out the guilt a bit.

I've been a frustrated writer for just about as long as I can remember, and I've found it extremely difficult to make any sort of mark on the frequently changing world of games coverage. 2016 was the year when I just said "fuck it" and started my own blog, with the goal of writing about video games every single day in 2016.

Well, I did it. Not all of it was great. I don't think it's possible to write that frequently and have all of it be quality. Some personal issues in the middle of the year also forced me to miss some days, but I always made them up in the end. As of 11:59 on December 31st, I had covered over 400 video games in either written or video form.

(In a related note, I don't recommend anyone else ever attempt to do this.)

So yeah. Just something I thought some people may find interesting. The most recent post has a list of what I consider the best pieces I wrote last year, so you don't have to trudge through an index. I do intend on continuing to put out stuff in 2017, albeit at a much more reasonable pace.

But for now, I need a nap. Have some games.

Congrats on doing what you set out to do :) Even if you're not totally in love with every entry, it's still quite the accomplishment. Hell, I've been meaning to clean the gutters for at least three months ;)

Looks like you're planning on continuing at a slower pace in 2017, hope you keep it up!

It seems to me that putting out quality everyday might be difficult, but do you think it's improved your ability to do quality writing under time constraints going forward?

Also thanks for the GAs!

Absolutely. I think one of the biggest struggles that any writer faces is simply getting started, and from this point forward, I really don't have any excuses when it comes to sitting down and getting stuff done.

I remember chancing upon your Overwatch posts at one point. Really enjoyed your writing and didn't realise it was part of a larger and grander project.

Not entering any of the stuff, just have a free bump :)

No guilt required, and not only because of the giveaways. That is quite the accomplishment writing about so many games, let alone the additional time devoted to simply playing them. I hope this is the year you are able to expand your community even further and make your mark on game coverage! Keep up the good work and thank you for the giveaways :D
