I have been a storyteller since childhood immersing myself in mythology from around the world.  I am a Speculative Fiction writer, an artist, and a dabbler in electronic music. My love of Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror, Anime, Martial Arts books and movies (Wuxia/Jedaigeki), and all things Gothic influenced me in the creation the Chian’niu setting. My works and setting are described by my fans as having a Manga feel, pulling from vast and disparate sources blending them seamlessly into one rich and cohesive setting. I have been a convention panelist for two years, a member of the Joseph Campbell Foundation and I run the website ProjectShadow.com. My published works include Liquid Sky, Shine Like Thunder and two short stories published through the Amazon shorts program titled Deus ex Machina, Night Terror, and Black Moon Rising .

legend of the seeker Calling all Vidders!John the Rogue Demon Hunter has issued the call!

I love the show Legend Of The Seeker and would like to see the show continue. I know the show has been given a second season but we need to act as though the show is in trouble before it is in trouble of being canceled. If you are a fan and have access to video footage(I am decabled and dont have access) start making some vids and promote the show. Lets increase the audience before that season two premiere.

Discus amongst yourselves on the original thread Calling all Vidders at Project: Shadow, or here.  Let’s get this done!

That is a really good idea. We have to do everything in our power to spread the word and Vids are a great way to do it.

Personally, I would love to see a Vidders guild where vidders can get together to share tips and tricks and take requests from untalented folk like me. Would you be interested in anything like that?

 The Clone Wars webcomic returns

Star Wars.com added ‘Hunting the Hunters’ to their webcomic collection.  It covers events that occur between season one and season two of The Clone Wars.  Read it onlin here.

The reader  is a little tricky to use.  There is a fit to screen option that makes the text a little bit bigger but I still needed to zoom in to read some of the text… either a sign of my age or because I was on my laptop.  The other problem is that this story starts on page 170 so you have to flip through to the desired page waiting for all of the earlier pages to load slowing down the load time.

I wished they would have just followed other webcomic successes like Looking for Group and made each page a full page.  The reading of the comic would be a more enjoyable experience and I don’t mean like so enjoyable that one might not buy the comic when it is published but more enjoyable so that someone on the fence about Star Wars would stick around long enough to actually read the story.  Also by following that model they could have increased the load time since each page is by it’s self and Star Wars.com would have been able to get more add revenue from comic readers as we would have had adds showing up for each page we read.

Though the delivery could use improvement the 5 page read is still interesting.

Legend of the Seeker: Zedd and RichardCurious about what season two might bring.  Here is an interesting look at a writers draft dated 6/15/09 for an episode titled “MARKED.”  Caution I give as much creedence to the draft as I would a rumor, in other words, take it with a grain of salt because even if it is a legitimate draft it’s a draft and is subject to many changes before the final product.  That said, it is still a fun and interesting read.

ABC’s official description for season 2:

“At the end of the first season, Richard succeeds in his quest to defeat Darken Rahl, but it remains to be seen whether or not he has truly been destroyed. Richard will soon discover that, in defeating Rahl, he inadvertently opened a rift into the underworld, and he’ll have to deal with those consequences as a war is waged on the living.”

What we might get:

  • Infighting amongst the goals of the Sisters of the Agiel… will they serve the ghost of Rahl or the next in line to take the throne Richard.  (I love the part in the draft where Trina uses the fact that the Agiels still have power as proof that the blood line of Rahl still continues)
  • The discovery that Richard is of the blood line of Rahl
  • The haunting of Darken Rahl as he serves his master the Keeper of the Underworld and it’s quest to conquer the living.
  • Cara joining up with Richard

It’s no secret that I am not a fan of Twilight and that I love Buffy the Vampire Slayer, so when you can imagine the glee I felt when I saw this video of Buffy slaying Edward.  Well edited and funny, this is a great fan edit!

Former Stargate SG-1 star Michael Shanks will appear in an episode of SCI FI’s Sanctuary in its upcoming second season, Shanks’ managers at JDS in Los Angeles told SCI FI Wire.

Shanks reunites with his former SG-1 co-star Amanda Tapping, who stars in and produces Sanctuary, in episode 209, entitled “Penance,” which begins filming next week in Vancouver, Canada; he’ll play a character named Jimmy (SCI FI Wire).

This is some of the best news I’ve read in a while.  I love Michael Shanks.  I love Sanctuary.  Michael Shanks + Sanctuary = Brilliant!

I am really curious about the episode.  With a name like Penance, I have to wonder if this might have something to do with a sin Magnus committed in her past.  She has a long history, and I would love to learn more about it.  It would be great if Shanks was a part of that.

More realistically, Shanks will probably play a character who has done something terrible to the Abnormals and has to make amends.
