14 years ago today, I started writing this blog. I really never think of myself as a writer, but looking back to some of the earliest posts I see proof of just how important constant practice is to improving the quality of your writing.
I wanted to take this opportunity to throw things open and ask my readership if there are any questions they have or if there are any topics they might like to see covered in the blog.
I have the impression there may be university classes that include my blog as suggested reading because there are a number of Northern Arizona University and University of Martha Washington email addresses among my subscribers. (Hi all, thanks for reading!)
I am pretty sure there may be a fair number of students from other schools reading as well.
If you have any questions, let me know.
But I also have a question of my own for you.
A few weeks ago, one of our game design faculty was being interviewed on a podcast. The faculty member said he often asked his students what they thought the future of video games was going to be. He asked the podcast host what he thought the students answered. The host said, Virtual Reality.
The faculty member said even though he expected virtual reality to be the answer as well, his students were actually interested in seeing hologram games like the one depicted in the original Star Wars movie. (It also appears in the Force Awakens, exactly where it leaves off in the original movie.)

So my question to all the university students out there (and anyone else can respond as well) is what you envision will be the future for the way people experience the visual and performing arts.
