Metamorphosis

Hope you’re having a great weekend. Thought I’d drop by as it’s been a while. You know the drill, life, work, so on and so forth.

It’s great to be back with some fantastic news. I have a new release announcement to make.

I was invited to be a part of a collective of 19 writers, for a brand new anthology put together by the brilliant team of Nick Burgoyne and Naomi Greensmith of Indie Fantasy Corne

Outstanding conclusion to this opening storyline of The New 52 Series. The Court of Owls mythology is superb, and really under utilised within any of the DC movie versions. These opening stanzas to this series would make such an epic Batman movie.

“Every man has some reminiscences which he would not tell to everyone, but only to his friends. He has others which he would not reveal even to his friends, but only to himself, and that in secret. But finally there are still others which a man is even afraid to tell himself, and every decent man has a considerable number of such things stored away. That is, one can even say that the more decent he is, the greater the number of such things in his mind.”
