This is a bittersweet moment for me. Up until now, General Xaphan and the entire cast of Damnation were all my own. They were characters that I created, gave personalities, and assembled into their story… but no longer. Now they are yours to go on an adventure with. After years of bleeding and sweating over creating and improving them, I have finally decided to let … Read More Damnation… Released!

VI Days earlier, Irius had an annoyed expression on his face as he looked out on the ancient, underground city of Maris Duengar. The city had stood for uncountable ages, but over the last sixty five years, engineers had taken note of several small cracks in the supports all around the cavern. A sense of dread came over them as rumors of what … Read More Another Abandoned Work… Taryn, The Legacy (Chapter 6)

V After dinner, Taryn went back to her room to change. She looked through her wardrobe to try and decide what to wear. Elven semi-formal or human… Her closet was made up of both human and elven attire. While most of the rest of her family had assimilated into human culture and thus never really bothered with traditional, or even modern, elven clothes, Taryn … Read More Another Abandoned Work… Taryn, The Legacy (Chapter 5)

She curled up on her bed and went … Read More Another Abandoned Work… Taryn, The Legacy (Chapter 4)

Finally, she decided that she needed to get off campus and try to sort out these feelings. She needed to piece everything together, and staring at four walls wasn’t going to do it. She stood … Read More Another Abandoned Work… Taryn, The Legacy (Chapter 3)

II Class started the moment their professor appeared at the front of the room. She was a middle-aged woman with graying hair and a kind smile. Though her eyes showed years of endless study and nights without sleep, she never complained. Taryn admired her for her ability to mix historical fact with both human and Elven legend to fill in the missing gaps. … Read More Another Abandoned Work… Taryn, The Legacy (Chapter 2)

So this is another one… sort of a sequel to Magnifica. I’m currently working on a whole new series and am sort of cleaning house with old ideas that frankly, I haven’t been able to go anywhere with. This is the most recent one, which actually came close to being a complete story before I just ran out of steam with it. These chapters … Read More Another Abandoned Work… Taryn, The Legacy

“Hi Jim, I’ve had a lot of ideas flying around lately, but not all of them are that great. Often times I find myself writing out some of my ideas only to almost immediately hit a road block. Then when I look over it again, I don’t know what I was thinking when I started writing. I don’t know how those thoughts could have … Read More When to start?
