Hello all, I know it's been a while, but I've been busy at work. I won't bore you with my private life and the trivial problems within, and cut straight to the chase. I know it's been a while since I've posted. I'm still sad that the X-Men and Bishop stories got cancelled, and no, I will not be resuming them, but never fear, I'm here with a plan for another mini-series. It's still in very early development. I've got a picture of it's setting, a picture of the character, and a very small flashback, but I'm proud to announce:

Star Wars: Favor

Star Wars has been my longest passion and one of the inspirations for my writing. I've always been a big fan, but with the recent comic-book takeover of the media, I've lost my way. Fortunately, and appropriately timed, I'm back at it, writing my first Star Wars story in quite some time. With the strange, new canon, the upcoming movies and TV series, and due to my being out of touch with a galaxy far, far away for a long time, I will probably mess up some terms. Feel free to correct me if I make a mistake, and I will happily implement it.

So what is Favor?

Star Wars: Favor is going to be a 9-part mini-series taking place on a new planet in the Mid-Rim called Nala'a'dere. Nala'a'dere is a vacation hotspot for members of the Imperial Senate, luxury Coruscant businessmen and anyone who is anyone. It's also home to our hero, a female Twi'lek Force user who has seen what evils the Empire is capable of after the massacre of her village at the very end of the Clone Wars, and how the clone troopers turned on their Jedi General, killing him in the streets. Jaklya, our heroine, fights not only against the Empire, but against the galactic stereotype that all Twi'leks are sex items, to be used and discarded. This story is not only one of a savior among innocents, but of a woman attempting to separate herself from the weakness normally ascribed to her people.

In this series, you will learn about Jaklya's past on the third moon of Ryloth, including her first encounter with a Jedi, and witnessing the brutality of the Empire for the first time. You'll meet some of her surviving family members, who may hold interesting surprises and alliances, and follow her across the galaxy with her love, the prestigious and proper Dak Kell, a warrior prince from a fallen planet who holds his own surprises. Perhaps the most interesting thing about Jaklya however, is that she is neither Jedi nor Sith, and received no training in regards to the Force. So what is she and how did she learn the mysterious ways of the Force? That is a story you'll have to wait to find out! Part Original Trilogy throwback, part brave, new worlds and part social commentary, Favor is an exciting new project I can't wait to get started on!

So when is it coming out?

Well, that's the question, isn't it? I'm still very busy, and it doesn't look like life is slowing down at all, some would say it's the reverse... (sorry, can't help myself.) But I'm hoping to have some demos of the return to a galaxy far, far away throughout the Summer and hopefully the first part out in the Fall. Don't hold me to it though!
