Lets try this again, one more time.

Years ago I started A Life Well Played as a “video game news commentary”, a way to express my thoughts with the current state of video games and sometimes pop culture. I experimented with various forms of writing, as well as layouts and designs.

Since then, I’ve had several ideas and the chance to explore them, but none of them felt quite right. I even explored the idea of making it a Medium-esque type clone, allowing others to submit their own stories. As I developed the idea, I realized this really wasn’t sustainable, or even a a direction I wanted to go with for this site in particular.

Instead, I’ve decided to go back to go back to what worked; a place for me to share interesting, sometimes cool things. I made the mistake of trying to come up with something I thought other people might want to read, instead of what really mattered- what I wanted to write.

Welcome to A Life Well Played. An experiment of sorts.
