Hi everybody!
What do you do for a hobby? How do you spend your free time?

Usually I play the piano, sing and play some other cool instruments. I also play video games when I have the time to do so.

What video games do you play?
Raf_AL 2 points 5y ago
Well since I'm not completely blind I can play all the games that has many colours. I'm planning to get the nintendo switch at some point. I also play gta and other shooters, but since the grephics are so realistic these days, I find it kind of hard to play them now.

I read a lot of Harry Potter fan fiction, listen to audiobooks, listen to movies and serieses on my external hard drive. I go out sometimes with my friend and try to help out when I can.

Going to the gym and working out, always trying to learn new things and waste my time in social media

Photography oddly enough.

What camera do you use? How do you adjust settings?
matt_may 1 points 5y ago
I have RP so I still have a central 7 degrees or so. Which fits perfect for a view finder on my DSLR. I have a lot of problems getting horizons straight. If I like a subject I take lots of photos then correct when I get home with Adobe.

So you can use the menu without issues?
matt_may 2 points 5y ago
I can still read at a slow pace but I mostly use auto focus because I don't trust my eyes to actually focus the camera at any given point.

So much fanfiction. And Reddit. And chatting on IRC. And reading ebooks. And programming.

What do you read?
fastfinge 1 points 5y ago
In actual books, Science fiction and fantasy mostly, with a good sprinkling of nonfiction for flavour. Robert Heinlein, Piers Anthony, Robert Asprin, Mercedes Lackey, James Alan Gardner, that sort of thing. In fanfiction, my primary fandoms are _Harry Potter_ and _My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic_, though I really love the occasional good _Dead Like Me_ fic to bits, and will sometimes venture out into _Sherlock_, _Discworld_, or _Buffy_ fanfic.

I read and write a lot, play the drums, live music, and tabletop roleplaying games. Dungeons and dragons mostly.

How do you track spells?
Vicorin 1 points 5y ago
I use an app called Fightclub 5th edition. It tracks everything about your character. I’m on IOS, I don’t know about android. It’s pretty accessible, if a few buttons aren’t labelled.
Anyway, the character sheet will track all of your stuff. There’s a spells tab, and it’ll list all the spells you know by level and how many spell slots of each level you have.
Only downside is that, legally, they can’t put everything in the app, but you can import files and there’s a dropbox folder or two out there that I’d be happy to point you toward if you’d like.
I also use DnD Beyond for their digital editions of the books, much easier to use than a pdf. They’re new update causes some issues for me when trying to create a character, but the books and data listings still work perfectly. You’ve got to drop money on the books though if you want access to everything out there.
Without either of those options, you can always just write down what spells you know and what they do in a word document or something I suppose. That was maybe a bit more in depth then you were looking for, but oh well.

Skydiving.
Hiking.
White water rafting.
Reading. Just started Black Tide Rising, and while some of the events are a bit far out, even for zombie survival fiction, it's good.
Redditing.

Guitar. I was really sad that I had to stop playing roller derby when vision loss kicked in, then Chris Cheney from The Living End said to me "You know, playing guitar is a hobby that your eyesight can't ruin for you."

Hi I'm not blind, but I like to write. Hopefully, I could write a book for all of you out there to enjoy someday.
