Feb26	Writing Tip: Buy a huge widescreen monitor Jayvee Fernandez February 26, 2007 Know More: Advice A few days ago my brother got himself a huge 19 inch flat LCD widescreen monitor for about $200.00. Coming from the CRT age, I didn't really care much for these "latest developments in technology" (duh, like these are new) as a huge monitor was the least of my concerns. As long as it worked, I was fine. Then came the widescreen which I'm currently using to type this piece. As I'm drinking coffee and eating my words on what I used to think about CRT monitors I figured I could get twice as much typing done by having my references take up the right side of the monitor and my word processor take up the other half.

I guess listening in to... Continue Reading Posted at 6:26 AM \| Permalink \| Comments
	The Alternate Universe Jayvee Fernandez February 8, 2007 As a gamer, I am quite fond of the concept of alternate universes. It is quite a geeky concept, truth be told - as the designer of a world takes bits and pieces of familiar things and pulls them all... Continue Reading Posted at 5:11 AM \| Permalink \| Comments
Feb 7	Tell the story the way it should be told Jayvee Fernandez February 7, 2007 As a writer, you need to get "into the act" when you're with peers.
