Microsoft Employees Disrupt Wii U Best Buy EventsRemember how Nintendo was showcasing some of their E3 games at participating Best Buy stores around the country? Well, apparently Microsoft employees have been hired to go to these events and preach about the Xbox One and make comments like "why would you buy a outdated Wii U when the Xbox One is right around the corner?"
However, the employees aren't getting what they hoped for. Most customers just start bashing the Xbox One in response. Seriously, Microsoft, the people attending these Best Buy Wii U events are people who are intimately familiar with the crap you pulled at E3. They ain't takin' your shit.
At first I thought this might just be a case of one really loyal Microsoft employee taking matters into his own hands (especially since the original source was /v/), but reports have come in from numerous Best Buy's around the country that indicate many Microsoft employees have ambushed the demo lines trying to persuade people to switch to the Xbox One.
Since so many reports have com

Please Pants Responsibly (Paper Notebooks FTW)

There are two ways to write a novel. Plotting (you make an outline, a plan, a roadmap if you will, and then you sit down and write it) and pantsing (you write "by the seat of your pants, throwing caution to the wind). So when I get asked if I'm a plotter or a pantser, I'm all like er, uh, hold on, let me? Pantser? I think? But I kind of, um, do planny things?
And it gets kind of awkward because in these inarticulate moments I have managed to confuse everyone including myself. And probably spilled a drink.
In recent discussions, however, I've had a bit of a revelation, silly as it is. I've realized that I -- like many writers -- am a plotter/pantser hybrid. And perhaps what I'm doing is something we could call Pantsing Responsibly. And, maybe, just maybe, I could share some of my responsible pantsing tips with other writers. Starting with paper notebooks.
Anyone can find a notebook. If there isn't alread

The Used Game ParadigmOver the course of this past generation I've been watching the video game market react to the way it's been forced to deal with increasing changes. I've come out against used game sales and even written a journal about boycotting GameStop because (like most people at the time) I believed they were the root cause of all the problems the video game industry has. But that's something I don't believe now as intently as i did then. From where I sit, piracy and used games sales are a problem, but not in the way game companies want us to believe that they are.
Used games are a good thing for consumers. We get to try games out, and if we don't like what we see or finish it early, we trade it in and try another title instead. It's a very good system for us since video game rentals are much harder to come by. Most video rental stores in America have gone extinct and outside specific Red Box Kiosks there aren't a lot of places for consumers to rent video games. The exception, of course, being thr

SPIKE updatesJust thought I'd share with you guys some updates on the progress of finishing my "SPIKE" novel.
A lot of people have asked me how it's going, when it will be published and stuff. I really appreciate getting asked these things because it shows that people are actually interested in my writings, and that it just such a great feeling

I've got two news for you guys today though: one bad news and one good news. Let's start with the bad news.
I haven't finished writing SPIKE yet.
And I honestly don't know when it will be finished - which oddly enough brings us to the good news:
I've made a new, major decision in the SPIKE story that I think a lot of you will be happy to hear. As usual I don't want to spoil too much, but there is a part in the story where Spike and Sam are separated from each other for quite a long while. At first I was planning on only writing from Spike's point of view, like, what he's experiencing during this separation period. I figured that since he's the main cha

Someone left $20 in an envelope at Fanime''
Hey guys!

Fanime was amazing but it totally left me sick for weeks

after I got better, I went through the letters I got and found one that had nothing but $20 and a note describing one of my posters. It looked like someone made a mistake and accidentally gave me their money without getting a poster. I want to return that money so If it was you, please e-mail me at Yuumei.yan@gmail.com with your name and address.

In other news, I will be at Anime Expo at table A24 and A25

Hopefully the Knite books will be ready by then!

Anime Los Angeles IX + Gifts

Journal Entry: Mon Dec 24, 2012, 11:11 AM

Hello~

I hope everyone has had a great start to the week. It is only 11 hours away from it being Christmas, and my sickness has not gotten any better thanks to the weather. However, I know that most of you are waiting for the updates for my second installment Give a Gift + Get a Gift, as well as the free quests everyone has won in the previous, but rest assure if you have not received your gift yet, I aim to have it given before the end of New Years.

Anime Los Angeles 9

Will you be in the Los Angeles area on January 4th-6th? If so, come down to Anime Los Angeles 9!! I will be in the artist alley there, and it will be 1 out of the 6 conventions I'll table at with my art for 2013. The Artist Alley is located at the Meridian Hall at the Hilton Marriot and my table location is 24A. A great friend of mine will be behind me selling her own art - you can browse her work at ~TirraMisu.

_{I'm selling buttons, keychains, prints, and a brand new product - cell phone charms! So come on down and if you can't make it, I'll still upload the products on deviantART.}

Do you have any resolutions..?

On a final note, I wonder.. what is it about this year that makes you want to make 2013 a better year? Would if be for yourself, or another? Feel free to share your goals.

Man! I wish I could go! I would, but I'd had needed to get a suite reserved in
advanced!
My parents own Condos in that area, its just, its hard to get unless you nab
them fast!
Next time you are going to a convention let me know! I'll see if I can reserve
a place before hand!
And also, I'll see about asking my friend Virginia or another to do a carpool! <3

I can try to meet you at Fanimecon if you're going to be in San Jose in May?

That'll be the next time I'm in California.

awwww

I'm not going to Fanime, cause I can never reserve
a table there > O >
I was pissed off, cause other artists always lie to me, when
I ask when your supposed to register for Fanime :/
I was told Jan-Feb, but then I heard from a closer friend,
that it was in October when they hold table reg...
These are artists I've always looked up to, lying to me...
Anywho, maybe someday I can go though.
Cause I now know that registration is in October not Jan-Feb...

Maybe you'll try going to Sacanime sometime??
