Theme Decks: Halloween

I'm treating you to 2 Halloween themed Yu-Gi-Oh! decks this evening! Halloween offers scares, candy, and a chance to fashionably dress as a Jack-O-Lantern; what's not to love about this ghastly holiday?

After the jump, you'll see Ghostricks and my 5 years running Reaper Control. Each caters to a distinct Halloween subculture, and vary in play styles accordingly. They're being presented as post-Shadow Specters builds (Shadow Specters is the next Yu-Gi-Oh! Booster - Sneak Peaks are scheduled for November 2nd).  Like many other players, I'm hoping that Ghostricks can be competitive options against the undisputed Dragon Rulers.

Lyrical Musings: Conformity

Like every good American youth, I wrote lyrics in high school. Admittedly, some were far better than others. The lyrics that follow are likely the best that I have ever written. I still have them (mostly) memorized and sing them to this day. Conformity is after the jump!

Lyrical Musings: Painting Freedom

Sometimes lyricists don't need a high verse count or even a chorus to express their intentions. Almost everyone has someone in their life who has been touched by the effects of war. I am usually against sharing the ideas behind my writing, however these are plain: We all hope. We all hurt.  Most importantly, we all love. 

Lyrical Musings: We are Weak

This is the first Lyrical Musings post! I wrote these words over 4 years ago, and I'm glad that I can share them now. I was once told that words were power, and these lyrics are evidence of that assertion. Read one of my favorite lyrics after the jump.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Theme Deck 1: Level 3 Warriors

From time to time I will be posting Yu-Gi-Oh Theme Decks on this website!  I know the obvious first option would have been Ghosttricks due to this being October: the ghostiest month of all. Don't worry, I'll do a Halloween Theme Deck later this month.  Today, I would like to present level 3 Warriors in all their glory.  You can be assured they have earned their glory on the battlefield. 

Short Story 1: The Woman

In 2012, I wrote a short story entitled The Woman for a college writing competition. I received second place in the competition and the college published my short story in the yearly Arts & Literature Magazine. There is much that I would say about the story if I were to review it, but I adhere to the school that a writer should never reveal his true intentions. I will be sharing this short story with you after the jump!

CV Updated

This is the first active day of my website! I have updated the curriculum vitae page, which tells you what the course of my life has been. You can see how I've spent my life, what I've studied, what I like to tell people I do, and what I've accomplished. As the rest of the website is updated, you'll learn more about me and my moniker krylife!
