Danielle Navarrette's performance made the movie for me.02 Aug 2026 03:16 +0000at://did:plc:37ezdufkdpyfpqmlnn3gwtve/app.bsky.feed.post/3ms2zfu2m4c2jhttps://bsky.app/profile/luciensoulban.bsky.social/post/3mrpdabsxok26If you're a fan of that smooth Motown sound, I highly recommend Jalen Ngonda's latest album Doctrine of Love. It's got that amazing harmony like you'd expect from The Temptations and The Carpenters.28 Jul 2026 11:39 +0000at://did:plc:37ezdufkdpyfpqmlnn3gwtve/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrpdabsxok26https://bsky.app/profile/luciensoulban.bsky.social/post/3mrlvla7ypk22Couldn't take pics during the concert but had a wonderful time at the Lucy Darling show in the Gay Village.

I find myself reading video game industry websites, skimming to see who closed, who was downsized, and who else lost their jobs. I keep waiting to rejoin that list.26 Jul 2026 15:53 +0000at://did:plc:37ezdufkdpyfpqmlnn3gwtve/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrkqgv6kes22https://bsky.app/profile/luciensoulban.bsky.social/post/3mriysjwxis26Spent a much needed lazy afternoon on an impromptu date with my husband, Etienne, reading and relaxing at my favorite bookstore.25 Jul 2026 23:17 +0000at://did:plc:37ezdufkdpyfpqmlnn3gwtve/app.bsky.feed.post/3mriysjwxis26https://bsky.app/profile/luciensoulban.bsky.social/post/3mrdq6vf6d227I'd lost the ability to read long fiction. Novels seemed to slip away from me, though I finished the occasional ones written by friends. I listened to audio books but I missed reading fiction. Thankfully I'm slowly rediscovering the habit and for me, where and when have made all the difference.23 Jul 2026 20:59 +0000at://did:plc:37ezdufkdpyfpqmlnn3gwtve/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrdq6vf6d227https://bsky.app/profile/luciensoulban.bsky.social/post/3mraa5ayfes26I promised myself over the past year that while video game writing pays the bills, I mainly felt connected to fans and my community when I was writing for TTRPGs and tie-in novels. Rainbow Six: Siege was community-driven, certainly, but I miss the connection of being a geek as well.22 Jul 2026 11:34 +0000at://did:plc:37ezdufkdpyfpqmlnn3gwtve/app.bsky.feed.post/3mraa5ayfes26https://bsky.app/profile/luciensoulban.bsky.social/post/3mr3o7yel7k2dWithout saying your age, what's your favorite movie that came out when you were 18?

I have a medieval horror novel out in early to mid 2027 (more details to come) and diving into new projects and new avenues.

If I don't talk about matters much, it's not because I'm ignoring them. I'm just dealing with them in my own way.
