On The Balance (at least how it works in the “Trials” world)
Az discusses some of this in His own book, but I’ll share this with you so you can see how I worked my mythology. It’s known that 4 is a sacred number in a lot of cultures, and in Trials it is no different. There are 4 “base” races, from which all other races are…

Midsummers
The other Commedia Del’Bard script, Midsummer’s Night’s Dream. This one was just so fun to do. BottomThere are fairies here, being kind and courteous to this gentleman, feed me with apricocks and dewberries. They pluck the wings from painted butterflies to fan the moonbeams from my waking eyes. PuckBecause my mistress is with a…

Check out this video!
Those who know me, know I’m not particularly eclectic regarding music. I don’t like “a little of everything.” Screw that. I hate country, rap, and pop. I do like the rather weird mix of metal, heavy classical, hair rock, and some of those soundscapy things. That being said, though, I would like to point up…

An Excerpt from Commedia “Taming”
Years ago, with Masque Theater, we developed an idea to combine Shakespeare with Commedia Del’Arte theatre, and dubbed it “Commedia Del’Bard”. Working with a basic cast of 6, who had the Commedia names (Harlequin, Columbine…study that theater history, people!) I then rewrote Shakespearean comedies into summarized vignettes, 40-45 minutes in length. I was one of…

How to Make Me Hate You on the Road
A helpful list, since things on the road that make me hate you (without even knowing you) doubtless make other motorists hate you, too. 1. Not passing in the passing lane. If you are in the passing lane, and not turning left anytime soon, you’d best be doing above the speed limit. And passing. Hence…

Another excerpt
Unwanted memories of his wretched past. Frank hadn’t seen his sister, a couple years his elder, in twelve or thirteen years. He had remained upstate for at least another year after leaving his childhood home. The details had long ago faded to a blur. His mother had turned on him, though, not Ronni. Ronni was…

Happy TATurday!
Loving it, she nailed the colors right on. If you don’t think so, just bear in mind that I utterly suck at taking pics. Also, behind his neck, that splotch that looks like a mark on my arm, is actually a blurp on the mirror. It’s smooth skin there. Will go back eventually and…

Magic with Cory Haines!
Wonderful night of magic at Prof Java’s, with the psychotic….psychic!….Cory Haines, and David MacDonald,and Evildan. With my bud Thom by my side (and some noms at the Wolf Road diner afterward, I highly recommend their omelets). Magic is always a great thing. Part of you wants to know how its done, part of you doesn’t,…

Update
If you didn’t see it on FB….getting the tattoo Saturday….make that TATurday! Its the heavy outline of the first with the color scheme of the third, add in some shading and switch out some browns for purples. Can’t wait! And eventually, Moon will be added (yes, that’s a stylization of Sun on the cover) to…

Excerpt
“Well, that’s hard to say,” Sun mused. “They aren’t uncommon on Ylithriel. The constant darkness makes it comfortable for them, since most of them hate sunlight. And they do attack people. But I discussed it with Azzie, and he doesn’t think it was a chance encounter. He had a difficult time sending it back, so…
