Ellen has a new Kickstarter which only has 69 hours to go, but if colouring is your thing, then I urge you to go have a peek at it and pick up some pretty cool deals.

Fishtank Fantasies started it off, and with the success of that, further books were unlocked. Equine Enchantment, Splendid and Scaled, and Feathered Fantastic.

I have a piece in the Angels book (Feathered Fantastic) (unlocked).

So go have a look, buy a few (also comes in PDF), and have some fun!

You can see what I am yelling about here: www.tornworld.net/familyties.p…

Available in e-book and trade paperback (pre-order), this collection of stories, poetry and artwork includes work by a dozen creators. Beautifully illustrated and gracefully laid out, this volume is a great jumping-in point for the world itself, with information blurbs throughout to give just a hint of the world-building detail that has been developed. This volume includes 32 stories and 5 poems. The trade paperback is 5 x 7.5 inches, 266 pages, perfect bound, with a full-color wraparound cover by Ellen Million. Interior illustrations are black and white. The e-book is a 26M pdf file, available for instant download (and free with a hardcopy pre-order!). Content is suitable for a general audience. Trade paperbacks ship mid-June.

In a world where time itself has been torn, family is more important than ever.

Explore concepts of kinship - by blood and by choice - in a setting that spans lush rainforests, monster-infested seas, wild valleys, and frozen mountains. Journey between the strictly licensed, steam-powered cities of the southern Empire and the small communal villages in the north that believe they are alone in the world. Meet the varied people and cultures who define family in so many different ways. Glimpse mysteries unique to the temporal structure of Torn World and search for answers to universal questions about belonging and relating.

Torn World writers, artists and poets brings fresh new visions of family and coming of age to the printed page.

Blurring the lines between science fiction and fantasy and bending the rules of time itself, Torn World invites you to tear into a new kind of shared world.

Special pre-order promotional offers

I write and paint there. Yes I write

It is a good place for those who enjoy RP and fantasy and is run by Ellen Million.

This is a taster from one of my stories. Hope to see you there!

"Oh, harsh words Len, harsh... How about.." Tekoth leaned, taking her with him as he stretched over the side of his bed to a small box under said bed. She almost toppled but his strong arms kept her in place until he rolled them back again. "This?" And he presented the box before her.

She took the box and looked at it curiously, noticing it was his handiwork. The wood was smooth to the touch, having been sanded for a very long time to achieve such a finish. It was hard to tell it was actually a box itself, the seam was so well crafted that it fitted perfectly together that it could have just been taken for a cube of wood.

"Tek, this is beautiful. You must have worked on it for many moons..."

Oh yes! 2010 has opened the gate to the wonderful world of Torn World!
