My young friend, Mik Murdoch, informed me that the owner of this website has been kidnapped, along with his entire family by the despicable villain, Lord Aquarius. What has he done wrong other than to write the book Mik Murdoch, Boy Superhero and edit your wicked compendium A Method to the Madness: A Guide to the Super Evil. I find Aquarius’ actions to be cowardly and pathetic! Who am I? I am P-Girl. A member of the Justice Squad and these words are being posted without the aid of the victim, Michell Plested. I have instead asked my colleague, Kid Crypto, to white-hat hack into this website so I could call out the villains of the world including you, Aquarius. Let […]

Super Villain or Super Bully?
Hi there. My name is Mik Murdoch and I’m a superhero. A boy superhero to be exact. You may have heard of me. My friend, Michell Plested, who has written about my adventures in the novel “Mik Murdoch, Boy Superhero“, invited me to talk about some attention I am getting from the super-villain community. I, of course, am always happy to help my friends out and, I’m more than a little freaked out by some of the things I have heard. So here goes. My friend, Miss Purdy, came to see me a few days ago.

We thought, if we did it this way, it might widen our audience because there are those people who don’t do podcasts but read and vice-versa. We also hoped that if you enjoyed the stories, you might support us through the purchase of the eVersion […]
Read moreCollaboration: Communications is Key
I have had the pleasure (and continue to have) of collaborating with several extremely talented people and I have learned the key to successfully collaboration. Another ‘C’-word: Communication. Without proper communication, any project will likely fail. When you are working with another person who is also busy, that failure is practically guaranteed. Take, for example, the Action Pack Podcast, which is scheduled for release the end of this month. Scott Roche, JR Murdock and myself are each writing a story in serial form with a new episode every month. That means writing, recording and production of the podcast each and every month. If even one of us fails to have our individual story element finished, the whole thing falls down. That means we need […]
