Opinions my own. Things here: https://shaunduke.net/dukethings
I'm working on building a little #gaming & #ttrpg community over on my AlphabetStreams Discord. If you're looking for a chill community of grown humans who like silly memes, chat about geeky things, and generally behave merrily, then join up!

You can find me live on Twitch every week at 6 PM Central on Wed/Sun!

I stream Valheim, Roblox, + games in alphabetical order (plus occasional Marvel Rivals + PUBG). Bad jokes and ancient meme references guaranteed. Songs are extra!

A friendly reminder for all the nerds out there:

I have a Patreon! If you like what I do as a podcaster, writer, editor, weird person, #Twitch streamer, or whatever, consider joining me there. I sometimes post exclusives, and I love talking to peeps!

The Histories is at 30k words and counting! It features time travelers, vampires, space pirates, Caribbean wizards, weird scientists, and more!

The stories are probably true, and they're about people you might know!

Learn the truth. Read and spread the word! #writing

Since before the dark times, I've maintained this handy list of space opera novels by cisgender women, trans, and non-binary authors.

If that sounds like something you need in your life, check out the spreadsheet. Suggestions always welcome via the form! #books

And I'm live on the Twitch machine for another evening of Boar'd to Death!

We're back at it in Valheim, and we're gearing up to take down the Queen!

Join us. We're a bunch of dorks who aim to entertain! Weeeeeee!

I'm building my YouTube by releasing more videos! If you're inclined toward geeky content, including games, #TTRPGs, + other nerdy stuff, AlphabetStreams might be your jam!

Click on through. Maybe drop a like and/or sub. Comments always welcome (I always reply)!

With my hands in so many different hats, it's a bit cumbersome to link everything on socials. So if you are trying to find all the things I do, there's a handy page that makes that easy peasy (lemon squeezy)!

Podcasts, blogs, videos, and so much more. Wee!

And we're back with another evening of Battlefield 6 over on the Twitch machine.

Why? Cause I like running around and getting smooshed by tanks or accosted while trying to track troop movements (or other useful things).

The journey to suck less begins!

Calling indie authors and publishers:

If you're looking for an editor who specializes in #sciencefiction #fantasy #horror or anything between, I might be just what you need!

Hit me up at The Duke of Editing. I provide most levels of editing at reasonable rates! #writing

In case you didn't know, I have a #Twitch channel called AlphabetStreams!

I stream W/Su at 6 PM Central. Currently playing Marvel Rivals, Roblox, Valheim, and a splattering of alphabetically-chosen games!

Come hang with me. Follow and sub. Let's have fun!

I've set myself a modest goal of getting my Patreon page up to $100/mo.

If you appreciate the stuff that I do, from podcasts to occasional blog posts and beyond, consider joining. $1/mo is all it takes, and you get more nifty stuff to boot!

Every little bit helps! Thanks!

And so it came to pass that another evening of Valheim came to my Twitch stream shores.

We're still in the Mistlands being accosted by bugs. Come hang!

Also: it's my stream-aversary! It's like year 98787 now :D. Happy me!

Don't forget to read The Histories, an encyclopedia of "totally true" stories about real people.

The dozens entries include folks like Stina Leicht, Adrian Tchaikovsky, Premee Mohamed, Catherine Lundoff, and more!

Maybe you'll join the halls of history, too! #writing

If you're inclined, check out my YouTube channel, where I release shorts/videos of my #gaming adventures and occasionally other nerdy things (such as my random explorations of beatboxing and other geeky things).

Like and sub if you're inclined. Thanks for giving me a shot!

And we're back at the nonsense again!

Tonight is an It's Raining Humans night. We're continuing our questionable journey in Battlefield 6, which is full of pewpew and gaboom and us floundering about like weirdos.

Join us as we try to get gud or whatever!

One way you can support my nonsense is on my Ko-Fi page!

Making #podcasts, blogs, and other nonsense takes a lot of time. If you appreciate the effort, toss a few bucks my way. Doing so helps me treat myself to a coffee or feel the sweet release of paying bills.

Thanks!

If you or someone you know is in the market for a book editor, consider me for your next project!

I work primarily w/ genre fiction and have worked w/ small presses + indie authors. Maybe I can help you with your publishing dreams, too! #writing

I'm trying to build my Discord community for my stream/YT page. If you find me amusing and want a place to hang out to talk about geeky stuff, support a small streamer, and get a few laughs, consider joining the #community!

Expect the memes to age us, though...

And another evening of Boar'd to Death has arrived!

We're playing Valheim as we do every Sunday. We're still in the Mistlands, and we're still doing very poorly. But we're having fun, and that's what matters!

Join the adventure. On Twitch!

Whether it's Roblox, Valheim, PUBG, or games played in alphabetical order, my stream is all about the joy of games, geeky conversation, and being a silly goose.

I stream Wed/Sun at 6 PM Central! Support a small streamer + come hang in chat one of these days! #Twitch

Every week, I add something new to my handy Patreon page. Detailed hiking adventures w/ pictures, science fiction criticism, book/academic thoughts, + more!

Joining is cheap, and it does me a solid by helping with equipment costs and what nots! Do the thing.

It's game time, y'all!

I'm over on the Twitch machine trying out more Battlefield 6 because I'm a franchise loyalist for some ridiculous reason.

Come join me on this adventure! I promise I'll be a ridiculous one...

There are dozens of entries in the digital pages of The Histories. All are totally absolutely true and full of aliens, superheroes, strange botanists, unusual athletes, talking animals, and more!

Give The Histories a read, then consider having your story told, too! #writing

Fun fact: if you're looking for space opera novels written by cisgender women, trans, and non-binary authors, I've got a handy spreadsheet just for you!

I've maintained this list for several years, and it's still growing! #sciencefiction #books

Give it a look. Bookmark it!
