GalaxyBillies 2 is Almost Finished

Posted on March 20, 2018 by Michell

One of my projects you may only have a peripheral view of is my GalaxyBillies book series. The first GalaxyBillies was a podcast novel that I eventually ported over as a Wattpad exclusive title. I’ve always wanted to write more in that universe and, approximately a year ago, I started writing GalaxyBillies 2, also for Wattpad. As a book that has no contract and doesn’t stand to earn any money on Wattpad, it has often had to take a back seat to my other projects. That’s why, more than a year later it is only just approaching completion. It is also more raw than my published works because, as I write a chapter, I post that chapter. It has minimal […]

Great Things are Coming

Posted on April 6, 2016 by Michell

There are a number of changes coming in my life, none bad…just different. I know I’m teasing you a bit here because I haven’t given any details. Just be assured that I will be making an announcement in a few weeks. It will involve my books (naturally) and what’s coming and how soon. I know I’m excited to share and I hope you are happy with what you hear. In other news, GalaxyBillies is the little train that could. If you don’t know what GalaxyBillies is, it is a serialized story I wrote and podcast a few years ago. Two years ago I decided to put it up on Wattpad. It did okay until it was featured. That’s when it […]

Time Flies

I was thinking I would put my GalaxyBillies Christmas story up on Wattpad. I had originally written it to be podcast (you can find it here) and thought it would be fun to share it once again. Then, I noticed the date of the story: December 2011. Holy Cow! I can’t believe it has been so long since I wrote a GalaxyBillies story. I’ve got two projects that have to happen first, but I guess it is high time I got going on the next book in the trilogy. Not that I’ve completely forgotten the GalaxyBillies universe… My Champ McKay, Texas Space Ranger serial is also set in the same universe. Just a hundred years (or so) in the past. […]

Creating Worlds

Posted on September 17, 2015 by Michell

One of the things I truly love, whether it is in books, movies, comic books or whatever, is when the property hits a certain tipping point and stops being a collection of material and becomes a living breathing entity. Several such properties come to mind (and might make what I’m talking about easier to envision): Star Wars; Star Trek; Discworld; Wizarding World of Harry Potter; Pern; Asterix and Obelix; Narnia. This is just a very small list; there are many MANY other examples out there. In each case, the original work has grown well beyond what was first conceived, gaining a life of its own. Hmm…now that I think of it, perhaps the word, “Conceived” is very appropriate. What makes […]
