I've been meaning to start a blog for a while now, but have never found a topic I felt like I wanted to blog about. Until now. Hello, and welcome to my blog about mindful gaming.
Who am I?
So who am I? Well my name is Kellan, and I am a middle age Trans Man who is finally discovering who I am myself. For most of my life I've had to live in a closet due to my very conservative Catholic family. I am now free of that pressure and can explore and discover myself, my true self. I am also a very avid gamer. I play all kinds of games, from casual farming sims like Stardew Valley to more "traditional" games like Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, ETC.
Why a blog?
So why a blog, especially if I plan on talking about gaming? Shouldn't I be doing a vlog? Well, to be perfectly frank, I'm not a very good vlogger, streamer, etc. I ramble too much and I cannot edit to save my life. Believe me I've tried with my beauty review and vlog. But writing? I am very good at writing. I can more easily put my thoughts onto paper, edit it, and make it a concise reading. Also as a trans person who has just started his transition, the sound of my voice is dysphoric to me. I sound too feminine and I don't like the sound of it. Writing for me, is the choice to go
What is this blog really about?
This blog will be exploring mindful gaming and also gaming from an LGBTQIA perspective, be it lgbtqia themes in the games, the developers belonging to the LGBTQIA community, or even just headcanons *cough*CJ and Flick*cough*. As a FtM trans person who is also Chaotic Biromantic and asexual to boot.
As for what is mindful gaming, I feel that deserves it's own post. Which will go out tomorrow. I plan on blogging three times a week, Preferably Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, but it might be more sporadic than that. I plan on discussing themes, reviewing games, and ranting about some aspects as well, Believe me, I have a huge rant already prepared about my issues with Player-sexual and the erasure of Bisexual characters.
So join me on this journey and I look forward to discussing and chatting with everyone.
Cheers,
Kellan
