Oh yeah by the way...


I started writing a childrens book awhile back. It doesnt have a title yet, but its about a little boy who discovers a colony of gnomes, and how he develops a friendship with a certain gnome, and at the end of the day, he helps save the gnome colony form the evil bad guys.

I know what a killer plot, but you know what, its a kids book. Lay off.

So I started looking to see how much it would cost for a publishing company to publish my book. And to my surprise, it cost well over $1,000, but it goes as cheap as $500, if you call that cheap.

But the 1k is really the way to go, it has the whole package with it copyright, etc. But obviously i don't have the money yet to get published so I will just have to wait until I can save up for that.

One of my good mates from Liberty, Derek Allen, who was the bass player in the band Brighter And Brighter, that I use to be a part of, is illustrating all of the pictures for the book. (pictured above is a early concept drawing)

So I hope within the end of 09 to have this thing published one way or another.

Stay tuned!

What time Is It?

A good friend of mine said the other day "Gods time is better than T.V" and it kinda made me chuckle. It was a good saying, and it actually helped me out a little. I guess I'm saying that right now I don't really feel like I am really moving toward my goal in life at this point.

I have gotten involved in the Church, I am serving in at least three different ways, but I still feel like somethings missing.

Like I need to find that one extra thing that will make everything else fall into line.

I'm just not quiet sure what that is...

So all I can do is sit back, say a little prayer, and be ready for God's timing.

Whenever that is...

SpongeBob Vs. Flapjack




As I sit here watching my parents glorious HDTV is sit here and marvel at the bliss of High definition cartoons. I have stumbled upon a predicament of the century er... of the day I guess.

Im not sure how many of you still watch cartoons, but recently (within the year) Cartoon network has released a new show called "The Misadventures of Flapjack"

And if you haven't seen it, well its ten times dumber than Spongebob.

But in my opinion, ten times better.

Not that I don't still love my Spongebob. Im just saying. You might wanna check it out.
