One of the possible tasks for the #Blaugust2025 Community Builder award is to create or join in a group project. I invited my fellow Blaugust participants to write about something they don’t normally share on their blog that they think their readers would never guess! If you’re following a bunch of bloggers, you may see multiple… Continue reading #Blaugust2025 Group Project -You’d Never Guess, But…| Nerd Girl Thoughts
It might be cheating just a little to call this a response post since it’s technically a post for this week’s theme, which I suppose I could have just written about on my own. However, I had zero intention of even touching the themes this year (I feel like I have done them to death,… Continue reading Grace For Everyone But Me – A Blaugust Response Post| Nerd Girl Thoughts
It’s time again for the quick summary of the August 2025 Humble Choice Bundle. Every month, when the bundle releases, a bunch of us get together on the Blaugust Discord and hash out which games we’re most excited about and divvy up the titles for us each to look at during the month. Some folks just take a… Continue reading Humble Choice – August 2025 Edition| Nerd Girl Thoughts
Okay, this is a bit of a delayed response, but as soon as I read Paeroka’s post (Paeroka’s Ponderings: Can a Game Be Both Cozy and Challenging?), my answer was immediately yes. Even once I read further to her cozy criteria, I knew the first game to pop into my mind fit perfectly. So, what are… Continue reading Cozy and Challenging?

Before I dive into today’s post, which is only very barely related to the theme of introducing oneself, I’m going to drop the links to all my past “introduction” style posts. So, without further ado: I haven’t been following the Blaugust Discord nearly as well as I sometimes do, but there’s been some conversation recently… Continue reading Introduce Yourself Week – What’s In A Name?| Nerd Girl Thoughts
I was supposed to play a game last night. I didn’t have anything specific in mind, but I feel like if I’m not playing anything interesting, I’m not sure what to write about. So I …| Nerd Girl Thoughts
I’ve got to tell y’all – I was very apprehensive taking point on the promotion of Blaugust this year. I’ve always been just as happy to have a small following, but I was very worried that my lack of reach would impact the size of this year’s event. And it might have, but so many… Continue reading #Blaugust2025 – Meet the Mentors & Blogroll| Nerd Girl Thoughts
By the start of August, I am absolutely desperate for autumn to show up. I’m one of those people who have a very small window of comfortable temperatures, and although I cope okay when it get…| Nerd Girl Thoughts
After a couple very difficult months, July felt like the first time in a long time I did oh so many things that were both completely non-productive and entirely good for me. I spent a long weekend …| Nerd Girl Thoughts
Two months with no real goals has not been good for me in any way, and I figure it’s not going to serve me any better with Blaugust starting tomorrow. I need to rediscover my focus, and figur…| Nerd Girl Thoughts
Yet again, Blaugust is the brain child of Belghast of Tales of the Aggronaut, but this year, it’s a group effort! Check out my Blaugust 2025 intro post for more information or to sign up! As …| Nerd Girl Thoughts
It’s been awhile – almost a year since my last Self-Reflection Sunday, and nearly that long as well since I’ve been posting with any semblance of regularity. In fact, I’ve b…| Nerd Girl Thoughts
The weather is warming up, so at least there’s that. In all seriousness, I’ve been in a bit of a slump. I started off fairly well early in the year with trying to be more in control of …| Nerd Girl Thoughts
Some of you may be thinking “Hold up, why are you posting about Blaugust 2025?” and that’s an excellent question. The answer is simple – this year, the inmates are taking over the asylum!&nbs…| Nerd Girl Thoughts
