If you write a lot, you know that your words can come back to haunt you or hype you. The truth of it is, once you write something and post it to the InterWeb, many, many people get to read it. You can only hope it isn’t taken out of context or rouses nations to go to war.
Father Geek reviewed the wonderful card game Perfect Stride a while ago and greatly enjoyed it. In typical “wordy fashion” (as I have been accused of), I waxed poetically about the game. I can’t help it; I write a lot when I am passionate about something. You should see what I write in birthday cards to loved ones. Pure epic wordiness. A simple signature will never do.
I was humbled to learn that Father Geek was recently quoted, not once but twice, on the Creative Play Retailer web site. It is a fantastic feeling when you realize people actually read and appreciate what you write. It also serves as a strong reminder that words, like a board with a rusty nail protruding from it, can persuade people to think differently.

Congratulations on getting quoted. I’m sure it feels nice to see your words in pseudo print. Your reviews are always very well written and very in depth and it is nice to see them recognized like they should be. Honestly, your review of this game was the only reason why I want to try and pick it up. I would have just bypassed it because of the kidsy theme. Please keep up the good work. I can only hope that my upcoming reviews are of the same quality.
Much thanks for your kind words, David. I am very pleased you find the reviews worthwhile! And for those of you who do not know David’s blog, check out Heist Comics & Games! Good stuff going on over there!
As always, if there is anything you think we can do better, want to see more or less of, or just have general comments, we’d love to hear any and all feedback!
