These two stories, The Dark Within Us and Beat Inside My Soul, all come together to build the world in a sci-fi teen superhero comic book, Anomaly. It's an upcoming comic book co-created by Cormac McCarthy and I.

It became an extension of a previously established story, The Dark Within Us. It's now one of three published dark fantasy novella e-books in a trilogy, soon to get a physical release. a.co/d/hCInMKU

It led to the tale I've written, Beat Inside My Soul. It's an animated music-drama set to and inspired by EDM and shonen anime, with fights and battles blending with beats and music.

Anyway, the book truly is a short read, a digital-only version, but my goal as of now is to finish the next two books, and with the proceeds from the digital books could finance a volume set including all three books in a physical form.

Aside from being a jumping point for these tales, The Dark Within Us is also a story about fatherhood, what it means to be a son, and what that can do to a person while slaying nightmarish creatures. The story, if anything, served as an intricate outlet for the loss of my father.

Eventually, it will lead to an animated TV series set with a whole new cast of characters with a heavy tie to music as part of their narrative, and would hopefully end with a comic series featuring a last final character and a new set of stakes.

This particular story constructed here, in The Dark Within Us, is ultimately the earliest stage of what will eventually become an overarching narrative spanning across several characters and decades in this book series alone.

Basically, this story is a story that I've been working on for years. In grade school, we'd be given writing journals for school. They were meant to be tools to help just learn the fundamentals of writing; I skipped all of that and wrote about boys hunting monsters.

I shouldn’t have spent almost 2 and a half months writing a patreon post about the Gilmore Girls and their resident antagonists sabotaging their love lives, but alas, wrapping up on Valentine’s day might be serendipitous? maybe?

anybody else think about Gilmore Girls quite often? no? just me? okay fiiiine, I’ll do a write up discussing who most ruined bits of the Gilmore Girl lives, from generational trauma to problematic lovers, the whole shebang!!!

I have no art to post lately so to break up all the doomposting here is my (old) interpretation of a Jareth after learning that there are LABYRINTH COMIC BOOKS?! #artpost

several illustrations of Jareth from The Labyrinth, 3 expressions including his casual lounging and evil smile, and a considering look as he strokes his chin. His chest is ALL the way out there
