The BEST popcorn…ever.
At my home, we watch a lot of movies every week. In fact, not many days goes by without one being played. We’re a media spoiled family…and along with that movie, we Buckley’s always have popcorn around. I mean, what’s a movies without popcorn?
We got that from my mom. Always had popcorn on hand.
Now, I have an uncle…Uncle Bob, my mom’s only brother–who makes THE perfect popcorn. Not good, not great…perfect.

I love games. All sorts, from video games to card games, to role playing and board games. From chance to strategy to a simple round of pick up sticks with my daughters.
Last year, a friend of mine–an avid reader of WANTED:HERO asked if I would mind him creating a card game based on the story.

I’m still paranoid that I may suck as a writer, even though the reviews we’ve received for Prelude to a Hero have been amazing.

The world is changing. Many would say that it’s not for the better.
I’m not sure I agree.

I’ve learned that stress doesn’t end–it simply fluctuates.
The first book of WANTED:HERO is complete, but now it’s a race to complete the second book, along with a couple of the field guides from Höbin Luckyfeller.
The first guide was nearly complete (cover idea to the left), but when Kathi read it, she made a good point: it needed to be more of a journal and less of a text book.
Personally, I’m a sucker for the details. Tell me there’s a new book out on the Klingon language or the specs of the Millennium Falcon and I’ll be in line at the book store. WANTED:HERO is supposed to be something different than that.
