Musings of a Streamer: Issue 4

A Simple Streamer’s April Check In

There isn’t much to say this month. I’ve fallen off streaming pretty hard. It started back in March, where I was getting burned out and too tired to work up to streaming. For April, the excuse has been I’m too busy and too tired to focus on streaming. I have no wise words to share or reflections beyond that. However, with the end of the semester on the horizon (for those who don’t know, I teach Creative Writing at a University) I will have time to sit back, relax, and dive into games! 

Come May and June, I have planned out both months to a tee, with a few things that I’m happy to change as needed. I’ve planned to play Star Wars games in May. June is a mix of Baldur’s Gate 3, inZOI, Bugsnax (VR), and a series I’ve wanted to stream for a long time—Trails of Cold Steel. 

Yes. I will play all four games of Trails of Cold Steel. It’s a series I love. My hope is by the time I finish the four games, the remake of Trails in the Sky will have released (it’s the first game of the Legend of Hero Series, which Cold Steel is a part of). Beyond June, I do not have too much planned. 

With that said, I’m excited to bring folks a month of Star Wars and epic games! 

To give a heads up in the future, every 4 months I will give an update like this to fit within the Musings. I like the idea of sharing my personal excitement and plans… And to highlight any growth that may have come!

Next month, I will dive into games you should play on stream! It’s far more complicated than one assumes…

Not really. 


Musings of Streamer is a monthly series that highlights reflections and commentary from my streaming and content creation experience. I am neither an expert nor a large streamer. All advice and content are meant to provide a perspective for you to consider, not to blindly follow. Join me every month to explore the wild waters of streaming on Twitch. I hope you find these insightful in your own journey.
