The Return of Rolecasters?

I 've been musing about podcast ideas and possibly reviving Rolecasters. I'd want completely overhauled setup, objectives, direction, and content matter. So once all of those fall into place, I guess we'll see if the name "Rolecasters" still fits. My dedicated co host has moved on to other endeavors, but has pledged her support as long as she doesn't have to do anything. Honestly I've missed the weekly+ shows and all the great friends made along the journey. The rate at which we produced content back then would sink my currently running projects, so if there were a return it would be with a more leisurely cadence, especially since it would be now be a solo project on my part.

While I continue to mull over the prospects, I thought it would be appropriate to share an almost decade long cherished podcast, Mysterious Universe. Their focus has always been on entertaining storytelling and, upon reflection, the majority of tales told are incredibly pulp. Alternate histories, lost civilizations, forbidden archaeology, and trans dimensional travelers fill their roster while being delivered with humor and authenticity. I've actually sent in story leads on occasion. Over the years they've moved away from being proponents of Disclosure and began to focus on just finding the best stories to entertain their audience, which I feel was a great turning point for their production.

What's He Up To?

Below are cataloged, in order of priority, my current projects. I am working on many in tandem so that their completion will be in a cascading promotional strategy... in short BAMF! Cisterns of Siennor - Short story is half way written. I'll also be painting a cover for this short inspired by a Frank Frazetta sketch from Fire and Ice . The beginning can be read in this anthology  as a complete self contained story of its own. Cisterns of Siennor is an expansion upon Herald of the Dead. -Frank Frazetta sketch- Altar of Deceit - First novel in the Lorekeeper's Saga is over a third complete. It started out under another title . I'm currently rewriting this story for NaNoWriMo 2017. You can follow my progress here . The cover is being painted  character  by  character  (four all together) with the backdrop the finishing touch. Remember those iconic Dragonlance covers? Altar of Deceit will also have 20+ black and white interior illustrations which will be pr

Lorekeeper's Saga: Daemon Lost

From sketches yet to be colored to quick paints lacking refinement, artists often share their works in progress in varying levels of rawness. The art of creation can be a lengthy grueling process and these WIP's allow friends, fans, and loved ones to see the evolution of the artist's long gestating endeavors. Otherwise there would be extended periods of silence within which their daily efforts may be forgotten. With that in mind I'd like to offer to you a WIP of book one in the Lorekeeper's Saga. This is an excerpt from the first draft of "Daemon Lost". The names and title are subject to change, yet here you'll find a glimpse into the world of Aerlon.     As the man closed the thick red curtain behind him, she recognized her client by his silhouette alone. He was a regular here. The din of the tavern beyond was muffled as the curtain fell into place and the man took a seat across from her.      “Welcome Hellsdreamer,” she greeted, reverently shuffling a
