Worlds Colliding: Merging My Urban Fantasy and Paranormal Settings
We’ve talked a lot about world building on this blog. I’ve had guest authors talking about world building and the importance of setting. I’ve been on world building panels at Euro Pride Con (both times I attended). I guess you could say I’m super into world building. It sort of comes with the territory of writing fantasy, paranormal, and science fiction.
First off, what worlds have I created?

| I loved the artwork and the adaptation is both interesting and accurate to the original story by Alexandre Dumas. Of course, the story was simplified due to length restrictions, but it's still a long and thoroughly enjoyable graphic novel. It looks l ...more | |

| I am a big fan of urban fantasy, and fae are particularly enticing to me. While Shadow Play was an enjoyable read, it didn't really hit the spot for me. Rebecca is an interesting enough character, but the two male interests were both unconvincing for ...more | |

| The thing I loved most about this book was Emily's perspective. It's difficult to properly portray a mental disorder in a believable way, and I think RJ Jacobs came close. The premise for this thriller was an interesting one, especially with a someti ...more | |

"I wish you were mine.
This book had it all for me. Fantasy has always been my favorite, but add sci-fi, angst, love, dystonia and a twist here and there, Im hooked! The feelings I had especially at the end are what got me. I screamed at both Adam a..." Read more of this review » |

The first book of a series is so vital. Between character development, world building, plot, all of it. It's preparing you for a journey. Angel's Feather is a sci-fi love story that was really constructed beautifully. There is always a n..." Read more of this review » |

“If you are all set for an enjoyable weekend then simply head towards the magnificent Her Majesty’s Theatre! The popular London Westend theatre is running the award winning London show, The Phantom of the Opera with packed houses. The show has already made its remarkable entry into its third decade.
The blockbuster London show by Andrew Lloyd Webber is a complete treat for music lovers. The popular show has won several prestigious awards. The show is set against the backdrop of gothic Paris Opera House. The show revolves around soprano Christine Daae who is enticed by the voice of Phantom.
The show features some of the heart touching and spell binding musical numbers such as 'The Music of the Night', 'All I Ask of You' and the infamous title track, The Phantom of the Opera. The Phantom of the Opera is a complete audio visual treat for theatre lovers. In the year 1986, the original production made its debut at the Her Majesty's Theatre featuring Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman. Sarah was then wife of composer Andrew Lloyd Webber.
The popular London musical, The Phantom of the Opera went on becoming a popular show and still London's hottest ticket. The award winning show is a brilliant amalgamation of outstanding design, special effects and memorable score. The show has earned critical acclamation from both the critics and audiences.
The show has been transferred to Broadway and is currently the longest running musical. The show is running at the Majestic Theatre and enjoyed brilliant performance across the globe. For Instance, the Las Vegas production was designed specifically with a real lake. In order to celebrate its silver jubilee, there was a glorious concert production at the Royal Albert Hall. The phenomenal production featured Ramin Karimloo and Sierra Boggess as Phantom and Christine.
If you are looking for some heart touching love musical the Phantom of the Opera is a must watch. With its wonderfully designed sets, costumes and special effects, the show is a must watch for theatre lovers. The show is recommended for 10+ kids and run for two hours and thirty minutes.”
