Actually You Can

Have you ever had a great idea, and then when it was drafted out into manageable sections, you found a lot of changes were necessary to actually achieve your goal? Well, that is what is necessary to get it to a published state! And, so we found ourselves backtracking and figuring out a better strategy to implement our science fiction series.

What to do with all those photos we had created? So, the best place to use these photos were to place them on our website. There we created a photo gallery to be able to share the many drawings and images that had been made in preparation for adding them into the books.   2. How to best divide up the story that was written as a screenplay into a series of books? This was a first attempt at dividing up ...
