Using Your Head and Your Heart
This is the beginning of your stereotypical essay about player safety in the appropriately dangerous sport of Quidditch. This is the part where I say that we need to be more careful and that the game can be unsafe.

A Fantasy No Longer.
Fine.
I’ll admit it: when the first fantasy quidditch tournaments were announced this summer, I was extremely skeptical. The chances of the quidditch community putting together a draft list, getting fields/equipment and the multiple of other necessary factors in order to run a successful tournament seemed low. Heck, I often had trouble getting over fifteen players from my...

Quiyk at the Quidditch Olympic Summer Games
Whoa. Where to begin. I guess I’ll just start from the beginning.
It’s been a whirlwind of a week for Quiyk, definitely the most action packed 7 days in the company’s history. I’m on the plane back from England right now, a place I definitely did not think I would be a week ago.

Let Your Love Grow Tall
Needless to say, communities play an incredibly large part of our lives. Quite often, we tend to latch on to people that do or like the same things as us. It’s almost simple human science at this point. And while it’s relieving to know that you’re not the only one currently drooling over Felicia Day on any given afternoon; communities can not only direct those to common interests,...
