CHILDREN’S BOOK

Princess Amber’s Bed is a story I made up for my daughter. When she was little, she always wanted to sleep anywhere but in her own bed.

She liked the story so much, I turned it into a free online children’s book, created in collaboration with artist Patricia Leonardo. I also wanted to use it as an opportunity to raise awareness of the non-profit organization Kids Need to Read, founded by Nathan Fillion and PJ Haarsma, which provides books to underfunded schools, libraries, and literacy programs across the United States, especially those serving disadvantaged children.

FIREFLY FAN FICTION SCRIPTS

For fun, several years ago, I wrote four episodes of a Firefly Season 2. These are in screenplay format, with appropriate teasers, commercial breaks, etc. I tried to keep them as true to Firefly and Serenity as possible. They pick up pretty much right where the movie leaves off. I don’t need to be reminded that I’m no Joss Whedon! But they seem to be enjoyable to those who are into this sort of thing. And since there’s no actual season two in sight…

EPISODE ONE: A Dream Come True

EPISODE TWO: Secrets

EPISODE THREE: Back to Hell

EPISODE FOUR: Persephone
