A Tale of Two Sisters

2010-05-25T19:56:00.005Z

What is, "A Tale of Two Sisters" I hear you ask, and what does it have to do with "Man of God"?Well this is a non-essential, but highly entertaining and innovative sub-story for the "Man of God" serial.It is a story that brings focus onto two of the supporting characters from the serial and deepens the entire mythology of "Man of God".This is in fact the first of an entire series of sub-stories

The name has been chosen!

2010-05-13T23:32:00.003Z

Father Time

2010-03-05T01:29:00.000Z

So I have finally worked out how I am gong to tell my time travel story and it has taken the shape of a TV series!I for one really like this idea because it offers me a refreshing change from my current workings with comics. Not to Kenton the story is pretty damn good even if I do say so myself.As yourself this one question..."If I made a truly heinous mistake, how far would I got to rectify it?"

2010-03-05T01:18:00.002Z

Ok so I've decided to make a formal dedication to write something on my blog at least once a week; even if it's complete and utter pooperdoodles and doesn't really contribute to The Terraverse other than for me to vent the random thoughts, ideas, plots, schemes and other quirks of life.And this is the first of those.I've decided that I am not going to overwork myself at work ever again - why

Paperchaser: Synopsis

2006-06-21T19:51:00.001Z

Welcome to the age of science. An age where religion is used more as an effective publicity stunt for actors and an efficient excuse for invading another country rather than a viable personal belief. People are enjoying the freedom of choosing the elements they like from any religions and fashioning their own system to live by. Lucifer is aware of this and so has taken steps. Lucifer has set in
