This has been the focus of most of my creative energies over the past clump of years. Here's the current organization for information on the project:
  • Status update on the first novel in the series, They Who Are Having A Bad Day
  • What's it about? A brief overview of what the series is about, particularly the first novel
  • The Characters A list of who's who, what's what, and why's why
