AWESOMENESS UPDATE!
Destiny's Fate got a re-work. I've dropped the Wards of Men from the back and am going forward with the comic from the beginning. I'm seriously excited about this because I've signed Mau, 122746, to pencil and formerly of the Marvel Bullpen, Taylor Esposito, to color and letter! It's going to be legend-wait for it because it's a story about time travel-dary! The script went out to Mau this morning, and we're hoping to have the book ready for C2E2, where I'll be manning the IC Geeks Publishing booth! W00t!
I'll have updates for the project as we forge ahead!

DF: Wards of Man Update!
Mau's still hard at work at the sketches/first pages, so here's the latest he sent me.
Sawyer Ryder is Kainoa's uncle and the Resident Gatekeeper, a head of the Defenders. He's only the third person to run the Gatekeepers who isn't Destiny, and he takes that responsibility seriously. He's tough but compassionate, and he has a soft spot for kids who were assassins, like his nephew Kainoa and his daughter, Mattie. This picture is subject to change simply because I'm not a fan of the crew cut. However, it actually fits Sawyer, so I'll probably leave it.
Here we have Mattie, Kainoa's cousin and Sawyer's daughter. She's slightly older than Kainoa and deadlier with her katana (hence why her name was Ravage). She grew up in medieval Japan like Kainoa, but she's adapted well to modern New Jersey. She's found a love of soccer, Chez Doodles, and family, though she still misses her former partner-in-crime, Edge, who was like her twin brother.
122476 is working on the first six pages, so I'll upload those when they come through. His birthday's this week, so send him a message at @122476 or on his blogspot account, http://122476.blogspot.com/, or just give him money by buying a commission! Do me a favor. Whatever you do, call him, "Grandpa."
Thanks!

FIRST LOOK AT WARDS OF MAN!
 |
| Kainoa Ryder by 122476 |
Anyone else think it feels like Christmas when his/her artist buddy sends sketches? Seriously!
This is a character study of the protagionist of Destiny's Fate: Wards of Man, Kainoa Ryder! 122476 rocked this! He even added the cut-off gloves to the Defenders' wear, which is just soooo badass Kainoa.
And in case you didn't notice, 122476 is a Bills' fan, and he wants you to billieve. Just you. If I do it, apparently the team loses. Go figure.
More to come!
D to the L to the M
P.S. The fantasy novel, Destiny's Fate, still for sale on Kindle!

"Loud Mouth"
This is just a fun little piece I wrote for my profolio class, Senior Writing 401, back when I was in college. I was writing Destiny's Fate at the time, and Allurin Blood, my first novel, kept popping into my head.
Anyway, Martie was a name I stuck in. I hated writing "I" at the time, and now I love writing in first person POV. Seems like internal narration has grown on me.
"LOUD MOUTH"
The precipitation in Martie’s room fell at a rate of a paper ball every ten seconds. Though she tried to scribble down ideas and finally get her groove going, the page remained silent, lost to her in a way it never had been before. When she tried to write again, her frustration grew until she crumbled up the paper and tossed it effortlessly upon the other hundred or so covering the carpet, the bed, even the hallway ground.
Another ball. Scribble scribble. Another ball, this time at Olympic speed and strength.
“Ow!” her best friend objected, rubbing his forehead. “Mind aiming that way from now on?”
