Welcome to Eric42.com

Welcome to the new eric42.com. This is the personal website of Eric Richardson, aka Eric42. That's me. For as long as I have been on the Internet, I have been Eric42. Though it seems to be less true today compared to how it was, if you searched for Eric42, you found me. But these days, searching for Eric42 will find many copycats. But I am the original.


So, if you want to know more about me, there really isn't all that much to say. The self-depricating part of myself wants me to just simply say that I am nobody. But I am trying my best to avoid doing that these days. I am just a simple guy that is a total and complete nerd! I am trained to be a bookkeeper. I love video games, wrestling and the Marvel movies and, one of the single most important things in my life is my Messianic faith, of which I have even began to add my writings to this very page.


However, one of the most common questions I have ever recieved is what does the 42 mean in my name. Of course, I always answer that it's the Ulimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything! Then I have to explain that to most people as well. In particular, it came from a series of books that I fell in love with many years ago called the Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy. If you haven't read it, I recomend that you do. You won't be disappointed.

Latest Updates

January 23, 2026: It has been a few days since I posted any update information, so I thought I would mention a few things. So, I really have a lot of changes on the website, so if you've been visiting at all, you've probably already noticed them. The other day, I had to fix the new Messianic article that I put up, as it wouldn't display correcly in mobile. I guess there must be an upper limit to how much text and stuf can be displayed in a "card", so I had to break it down into multiple "cards". Today, I added my TTA-Fanfic "Buster Solo" (which is only a preview start of a fanfic) on my Stories page.
January 19, 2026: Small update. I created another article over on the Messianic page, this one is the article "What's In A Name?" originally posted on my Messianic Substack page.
