What I am working on

Thanks Vance, for that flattering introduction. I am currently working on several things. Aside from doodling and free-writing, I am working to build enough character material for an espionage novel. I wanted to start with Vader and Trish, and then add more characters. I plan to write four more shorts stories, introducing different characters, and then compile the best characters into a novel about a super spy team. The next character that I am going to write about is very interesting. He is a young artist who has conceded to work for "the man" instead of trying to make it as a painter/sculptor. He gets a job with a major sports magazine. In the process of his life, he meets a very cool old man who lives next door. He is a very mysterious old fellow who tells tales of when he worked with the CIA and FBI. The tales are extraordinary and pretty far-fetched. But who knows. It should be fun.

I am also going to try to write something in the Star Wars universe, just for fun. Mainly I need practice educating myself to foreign worlds and writing in the Sci-fi genre. And who doesn't love a good Jedi story huh?

Finally, I am still kicking around my novel about Van and Maxarr Kond. You may have noticed that I took down the section that I had from that story, mainly because it is horrible. I plan to revisit it someday. But for now, it is cooking in my sub-conscience.

Feel free to e-mail me if you have questions, comments or critiques. I welcome them all.
