'Powers: A Superhero Anthology'
They are many and varied. Some fly high above us, soaring on Eagle's wings; they leave us standing as they run with the speed of Mercury; we watch in awe as they move mountains. They wear costumes of a myriad colors, they answer to names that sound like a clarion call and they hear our cries for help when there is no-one else to save us. Some say that their abilities come from mutations, others from the Gods themselves. Is it technology that gives them wings and science that lets them fly? Is it genetics or miracles? Are they even from Earth or somewhere far beyond? No-one knows. The one thing that we do know - the one thing that brings them all together is simple. They all have powers!

'Trinity'(novel)
Preparation and research has begun for a gritty, low fantasy novel entitled 'Trinity', which features Braeden, a blacksmith, as the central character in rebellion against a theocracy which controls society via a fundamental lie that he accidentally discovers.
'Trinity' has magic wielding priests, wild outriders, zealous collaborators, Wildlings (blood-thirsty creatures from the Wastelands) and down-trodden people with only a blacksmith to save them, or damn them.
'Trinity' - book one of the Trinity series, which will be continued in 'Purity' and completed in 'Desolation Falls' - is currently in the outlining stage, with real world workshops in blacksmithing and metal work scheduled for June and July 2011.
