… … … You remember how I said that I HATE having to denigrate someone else’s work? Well… All right, I went into this book SUPER ENTHUSIASTIC!!! I didn’t even read the synopsis. I wanted to hear about the tragedy of Darth Plagueiss The Wise. To me, this was something that I’d been curious about for a long time. So I finally sat down … Read More Rare Reviews… Star Wars Darth Plagueiss

Go ahead, oust me from the Geek Community with pitchforks and torches. I don’t care. This is the final nail in the coffin. First it was the 2016 San Diego Comic Con Star Trek Panel that was nothing more than a boring Social Justice tirade by Producer Bryan Fuller. I watched it online, but everyone who was there that I know, told me that it … Read More And… I’m Done With Star Trek

I “What happened?” “I don’t know, he just started convulsing. His skin is becoming discolored!” “Get him into room 2.” Mica could feel his body slipping away. He tried to scream, but Adramelech would not allow him enough control over his own muscles to do it. He could feel a burning sensation in his chest just under where the crucifix on his neck … Read More Soul Siphon (Book 1 of the Vengeance Doctrine), Sample Chapter

Not even the Imperial March could come close to being as recognizable and identifiable as the Top Gun theme. Far more simplistic in nature, yet bombastic and upbeat at the same time. It is such an iconic theme clearly right out of 80s Hair Metal, that you can’t ignore it. When to Listen: … yeah this is another upbeat writer’s block song. Listen to … Read More From My Writing Playlist

So over the last few months, I’ve taken to downloading Star Wars fan films onto my computer and sort of arranging them in order of the timeline. I’ve accrued about 30 videos from YouTube and absolutely love them. Today, I wanted to share my top 5 with you. Now… before I do that, what are my standards? Well they are fairly easy: Actual Honest … Read More Top 5 Star Wars Fan Films

Yeah this should come as no surprise to anyone. This is Tobias Sammet’s band. For those that don’t know, Sammet is the creative genius behind Avantasia and a number of other Metal performances. He’s lent his talents to several other creative works and compilations as well. This is simply one of his latest songs, but I encourage everyone to look into his other work… … Read More Off Of My Writing Playlist

This was quite possibly the first song on my writing playlist. I don’t remember for sure, but it’s been on there since before I can remember… Skip ahead to 4:20. This is a destiny piece and it is absolutely fantastic. There’s a reason it’s played right as Simba steps onto Pride Rock for the first time as king. I play this when my … Read More Off of My Writing Playlist

As a lot of you know, I have a standing theory that I continue to profess will come to fruition… Supreme Leader Snoke is none other than our Star Wars Rebels hero, Ezra Bridger. Please see my post ‘Star Wars: The Search for Snoke’ on that theory for the evidence. So one of the primary arguments I’ve heard against this theory over and over … Read More The Star Wars Blend

Hi Jim, I’m having trouble writing a few of my characters. I have a picture in my head of how these people should look, but I’m having trouble translating that onto paper. Please help! Thanks, Mili Hi Mili, All right, the best thing you can do is make a visual of these characters. Do you have someone in mind that they are modeled after? … Read More Visual Writing?

Okay I’m not going to lie, Episode 2 was a major letdown. However, what made it even worse was when this fan-made trailer came out… Yeah… tell me that wasn’t more awesome than what we saw in theater!? Keep in mind, I wasn’t a film buff back when this was made. So there was a lot of movies that i hadn’t seen… so for … Read More Star Wars Episode 2… What Could Have Been

Shaddap! Okay we all remember Episode 1 being the most anticipated movie in almost all of history. Fans were nuts! Action figures literally flew off of the shelves (I think I still have a few) and people were ready for Star Wars fever. We’ve been without a new movie for over a decade and were itching for this. What we got… did not … Read More Unpopular Opinion: The Phantom Menace Wasn’t A Bad Movie

Okay, time to bounce back after sorrow and dirge! This one was… unexpected… Let me preface this by saying that I HATE country music… okay rather I hate what country music has become. ‘Devil Went Down to Georgia,’ John Denver, and Johnny Cash are still household names for me. But when pop culture weaves into something more than it should, that’s where we get … Read More Off My Writing Playlist.
