Book II: Rise of the State
Taylor continues to look for his son with the help of Tia, his female companion whom he rescued from the slave trade.  After finding a safe-haven for the children, they continue their journey to locate Taylor’s son.

The only form of government left since the cleansing is at war within its ranks as one general decides to take control of the entire force, activating combat-bots to secure the control of the entire world, while another fights to maintain the traditional roles of the military force as an aid to a government which no longer exists.

The suburbs, now ruled by Lord Samuel, begin to decay further as he ushers in a new age of warlords, gangs and slavery.  The virus ridden world continues to mutate into a world like no other before, with creatures cursed by an ever spreading virus.

New Website for Selling My Various Creations Opening Soon!

Aug
16


Well, it has been a while since I have posted on here. Mostly because I worked my tail off for three months straight trying to get the new house ready for the family to move in. I have the house 90% complete. There are still things which need to be done before winter, and i am slowly getting them finished, but I have not been feeling well for the past month. After a few visits to the doctor, it would appear that I have IBS, more than likely brought on by the stress of moving and completing the house in a timely manner.

It is doing much better now, and I felt great yesterday, so I have plans on getting back to work.

During this down time, I have been looking at my various projects, and realized once again that I need to get them all in one place, which will make them easier to sell. As it is, I have things all over the internet. I have my books, 3DS Objects, schematics, SecondLife Items, eBay items, props and cosplay costumes, as well as other various things. So I am currently working on a website that will display everything I create for sale in one place.

I have obtained another web address, and will build the site there, placing a link on this site to make it easy to find.

It should only take me a few days to build the site.

I will keep everyone posted as it develops.

New Pandemic Dawn Novel Website

Jul
20

With the upcoming release of the latest novel in the Pandemic Dawn series, ‘Rise of the State’, I have been hard at work building the NEW Pandemic Dawn website.

I built the old site nearly two years ago, and it was time for an update to prepare for the latest addition to the series, but when I started navigating around, it was apparent that the entire site needed an overhaul. So, I decided to update the entire site, using flash.

I am keeping nearly everything the old site had, with some new additions. The new site is easier to navigate, and is ad-free. I also have a NEW character biography section where you can check out some of the great characters from the series. I will be slowly adding these characters and changing their bio’s as the series develops.

I will keep everyone posted on the release date for the latest novel and the grand opening of the NEW Pandemic Dawn website.
