Night Cafe: Creating Stunning Sci-Fi Art for Free

This turned out very cool. This image is from the AI tool, Night Cafe’. The best part is it’s free!!

Here is the description I put in. Then, the tool generated this image. Using iPhoto and Microsoft Paint, I edited the image and added my text.

“The crew of the Aevus arrives at Gliese 667. They discover that their own ship from the future is already in orbit around the planet.”

Then, it wrote this description:

“A crew of space explorers in worn, high-tech attire stand at the viewport of their ship, the Aevus. They gaze out in awe as they arrive at the celestial body of Gliese 667. They are confronted with a surreal sight: their own ship, identical in design, hovers in orbit around the planet. It bears the scars of time and adventure. Its metallic hull glistens with a warm, golden light, as if infused with an otherworldly essence…”

Cherish each and every day.

Okay, I had a really bad scare. It all started last Wednesday night. It started out with a slight tingling in my right hand and fingers. I didn’t think anything of it since I have parathesia already. Then it started traveling up my arm and then affected my face. By morning my entire right side was numb and tingling. So, off to the hospital we go. After a ton of tests they still didn’t know what was going on. The CT scan and bloodwork all came back mostly normal. I wasn’t presenting like a stroke. My speech wasn’t affected nor my face didn’t droop. It wasn’t until late afternoon when the MRI test came back, that they discovered a very tiny bleed in my brain. So, the diagnosis was a stroke. The doctor says it was probably in the best location possible: in the Thalamus, which that part of the brain heals really fast. I got admitted for observation since another brain bleed could occur with the first 48 hours.

I was discharged yesterday. It felt good to be home again. Nearly all my symptoms have vanished with the exception of the two small fingers on my right hand where it started, are still numb and tingling. Not sure if I’ll get the feeling completely back or not. I guess time will tell.

The biggest part of this message, is to tell you, we all must cherish everyday and to ensure you tell your loved ones how much you love them, because we never know what each day holds for us.

Blessings to all of you. Each and everyone of you mean so much to me.

Time Dimensions: An Action-Packed Sci-Fi Adventure

So, I’ve really been excited to get this project underway. The forth installment to the TIME series, Dimensions, is action packed and full of mind-bending realities.

Here’s the teaser:

Jonas Arnell and Tipper Montgomery return in this action-packed adventure. Follow along to a place that crosses the time dimensional gap. The dimensional fabric that separates the two universes has torn. As a result, vortexes start to open and close. These vortexes threaten to destroy this universe.

Now, it’s a race with time as they search for the rest of their crew. Then, they must seal the breach between the two universes before this one collapses.

Here’s the Prologue for the beginning of this production. Enjoy!!

Warlords Saga II: Realm of Revein’sev and Return to Revein’sev – Audio Production Update

After finishing the three book series, Salvage-5: Eye’s Wide Shut, I’ve resumed audio productions on Warlords Saga II. This is a two book volume that has Realm of Revein’sev and Return to Revein’sev. The first one was produced by another narrator. But, I’m redoing Realm of Revein’sev. These two are going to be awesome. These will be finished with background music, sound effects, and various character voices. These all are performed by yours truly, me.

Checkout the first Warlords Saga audio book by clicking that link. This will get you up to speed on what transpired in the first four books. These include: Warlords of Antares, Empress of Antares, Blood Scroll of Antares, and Rise of the Warlords. This was narrated by Ellery Truesdale. It’s a great audio book and Ellery does a nice job with the voices. but I wanted more special effects. So, I decided to redo Realm of Revein’sev.

This two book audio production will take some time. I started production earlier this year. Taking a break is necessary, since this is so labor intensive. First of all, every breath has to be noise canceled while editing down all the mistakes. Then, adding all the background music, scores, and special effects. Finally, quality checks, and ensuring the file meets the industry standards for acceptance. These don’t sound hard, but trust me, they are indeed, labor intensive.

I’ve posted this sample before, and feel it would be good to post again. It’s just under two minutes. This really showcases the background music scores and special effects as well as different character voices.

Enjoy!!

Escape Velocity: Preorder Now and Embark on an Unforgettable Journey

Well, here it is. The preorder is now available via @Amazon. I’ve set the release date for Oct. 22nd, just in time for the holiday season 🙂

I actually wrote this one in 10 weeks. It was done pretty fast, as the universe gave me a huge download on how this one should go.

Whew, and what a ride this is. Not only was this written so quickly, the title says a lot about how fast-paced this one really is. It’s a hang by your fingernails experience that you’ll not want to miss. Or as an old bumper sticker use to say, ‘Get in. Sit down. Shut up, and hold on!’

I’m tellin’ ya’, it’s an awesome mind-bending ride, that’s for sure.

So, be sure to click the link to the preorder and get ready to be awed.

Here’s a short excerpt that will get you hooked:

The flood of colored ones and zeros that made up the conduit, pulsated brightly. The images of Tucker and his crew, slightly formed, as they traversed the corridor. The halo image of Maggie followed close behind. Her eyes turning from green to red with anger as the seeker subroutines took her over.

“She’s gaining on us, Tucker!” Cassie shouted.

“We can’t let them connect with us,” Doctor Rhodes reminded.

“We’re almost out of the conduit,” Tucker indicated with a head nod. “Once we exit and we see the program section for Charlie, take my lead.”

“Are we doing the flying bikes?” Doctor Rhodes asked.

“Yeah, and everyone should remember how we do that.”

Exiting the corridor, they saw the Charlie-reality grid beginning to form shapes of sky, ground, and clouds. It also formed the waters of Puget Sound.

Tucker gunned his newly formed cycle and took off. Doctor Rhodes popped his bike in gear. He quickly took off after Tucker. Gus, Cassie, Sergeant Samuels, and Samantha, formed their speeder bikes and flew through the air after Tucker and the doctor.

Each formed a helmet and gloves as they caught up with Tucker. Looking behind him revealed the image of Maggie. Her figure changed into various colored data patterns of ones and zeros. The swirling data patterns split apart and formed into several black figures with their own flying bikes. She was no longer recognizable as Maggie.

Samuels yelped as he looked over at Tucker, “Vanguard Seekers!”

Tucker glanced behind himself. He saw the black figures now forming armor plating as they chased his team. “Well, it’s not Maggie, anymore!

They split apart and formed a Vanguard attack force!”

Eyes Wide Shut Series Finale Completed

It’s a wrap!!

Whoo hooo! I completed the series finale, ‘Escape Velocity’
