It’s a new month, which means it’s time for a new monthly agenda to discuss the results of last month, and what’s coming this month.

Regarding what all has been accomplished last month, we can all agree that not a lot happened to the website. I know what I said in April 2020’s agenda, but I may have also underestimated the effects of the quarantine on my mental health, on top of the coursework I still have. I am struggling with finding motivation, and any motivation I do have will have to go to schoolwork first.

The good news is in that regard, the semester will come to an end towards the middle of May. Classes officially end on the 9th, but there will be some finals the week after. I have five different essays to write, a video to create, and a collage to make, but after all of this is done, I will have free time to put towards the website.

Improving the layout of the website is my top priority still, so that is the only thing that I am going to safely say will happen during May 2020. Any content that I may choose to include will just be an added bonus.

Even though content is not my priority for this month, I would like to assure everyone that I have still been working on content. I have made three new podcasts that I have yet to post on the site, but for anyone interested, you can find them on Anchor. The first two is playing through another choose your own adventure game, Runt of the Litter. The third podcast is something new I am hoping to accomplish, which is tips for dungeon masters on how to run Curse of Strahd. It’s going to be a little less formal than my usual podcasts but I still think it is worth a listen.

Speaking of Curse of Strahd, I have been playing through that campaign with a group of friends as my paladin, Darius. It just so happened that Darius has a journal which he has been writing in, which is actually me writing from his perspective about what all has happened in the campaign. I am hoping to publish these journal entries on the site after improving on the layout. Writing has always been a passion of mine and I’m looking forward to sharing that with everyone.

Moving on, there is another, more exciting writing topic I’d like to talk about: my book. I am pleased to announce that the series of The Adventures of the Stylish Simon will start out with the book titled The House of Virgil the Damned. I will make a separate post when the book is published on Amazon. I am very optimistic it will be published soon, as I have met with my cover art artist and we have discussed the cover art.

Finally, I plan on including two videos in the future on this website. The first will be me playing through World of Warcraft’s Iron Man Challenge, which I am finding to be a lot of fun. The second will be my Dungeons and Dragons character creation series, starting out with the barbarian. Both of these projects are from school, so they are either done or close to being done.

I share with you the future of the site to hold myself accountable. I look forward to posting everything here.

Until next time.

Let’s get something out of the way now. This isn’t an April Fool’s Day joke.

As many of you are aware, a lot has changed in such a short period of time. I was definitely caught off guard with having to stay home for the rest of the semester. Adjusting to online classes is my biggest concern right now, which is why the site may be lacking.

However, I do want to promise that there will be content coming. I have already recorded a podcast last week and plan to record another over the weekend. I haven’t posted them on the site yet, and am not sure when I will.

The main thing I still want to accomplish is improvement of the website layout. Once that is accomplished, I intend to move forward with posting the promised content from last month’s agenda.

Stay safe, everyone.

Until next time.

Yesterday, on February 29th, 2020, ChancethePodcaster.com went live. And I am now just realizing that it’s going to be hard to celebrate that on a yearly basis.

The point of this post is to give everyone an idea of the ongoing projects I have, and what to expect for the upcoming month. I want this site to include as much avenues of media and entertainment as I can, for everyone to enjoy. I have a long way to go but I’ll get to it.

First off, I would like to discuss the ongoing podcast series surrounding the Mysteries of Baroque. Unfortunately, since Tony lives in Atlanta, and I live towards Kansas City, it will be a while before we continue with that story. As of now, I cannot give an exact time on when to expect the next upload for that.

This is not to say that there will not be any podcasts made. I have several others planned. Much like the one posted, it will revolve around guest stars (family and friends if we’re being honest) playing a choose your own adventure game. Given my schedule, I am hoping to record the audio during Spring Break and edit afterwards. Expect more podcasts towards the end of the month, if not sooner.

I will try to make other posts as time goes on. I know that I want to upload my photos taken during my time in Amsterdam over January, so that will be up soon. Additionally, in one of my classes, I am expected to make a video for a project. I am planning on making said video around making a character for Dungeons and Dragons. I’ll probably upload it once the project is finish, and based on the reaction, I make create more videos like that.

Finally, I will likely make an announcement regarding my book, which has yet to be titled, during this time. I am expecting to meet with a cover book artist after Spring Break. I won’t give an exact date on when to expect word on it, but if I was to give an estimation, I would say late March or early April would be the time.

As of right now, my biggest challenge to work on is the site’s layout. I am not too happy with how it is turning out right now and blame my lack of experience. I plan on turning towards experts throughout the month to see if they will be able to help me improve the website.

That’s it to expect for this month. It may not be a whole lot but I am just starting out. Give me time, and I hope to make something great out of this.

Until next time.
