Review - Senna... Everybody Wants to Rule the World

Photo Courtesy of Netflix Due to the success of the Netflix show Drive to Survive, Formula 1 has become something of a household topic in recent years. But growing up in my household... it was always there. For as long as I can remember, motorsports have been a big part of my family. Instead of watching football together on Sundays, we would watch races. School projects involved studying aerodynamics as they relate to Formula 1 cars and making huge posters so that I could break down components like how front and rear spoilers and downforce contribute to the car's overall handling. As a family, we would discuss the logistics of getting a go-kart and hitting professional tracks, going on ...

Shorts

Image courtesy of me, artwork courtesy of Josh Rottkamp (81s) I think there's a certain art to writing short stories that can make them something of an enigma. I've always struggled with them. I seem to feel like I have much more to put down and flesh out than what just a few pages has to offer. They can be difficult, but at the same time... they can be quite beautiful. Anyone who has read any works by Philip K. Dick, or Ray Bradbury, you know what I'm talking about.    Sometimes a story can be told in just a few pages (or in the event of a short film, a few minutes) and being able to get something across in so short of time is pretty cool in and of itself. Below I've inc...

If you're into that game... my apologies. But there was no way of knowing that my readers would find such a thrill in some...

Sample - The Cost of a Crown: Prologue

I promised my woman I would never take up the sword again, so now I must do what I can with the tools I’m allotted. One of those tools is the quill, so if I can put this story down while I still remember it then perhaps that old saying that “the pen is mightier than the sword” might be true.I should probably begin with the first time I ever met William. William, Duke of Normandy, as most knew him back then, or William the Bastard to some. It was before he was ever “The Conqueror.”It was summer, in the year of our Lord 1064, and I was housecarl to Harold Godwinson. In short, I was a warrior enlisted in Harold’s Wessex household. My captain at the time, a burly man named Charles, h...
