When the named partner of a small law firm dies leaving a large debt, the remaining misfits of the firm - a budding lawyer, wet behind the ears; a drunk, barred in several states; and a young law student who has failed the bar exam a dozen times - are forced to take on just about any client available, including a litigious soccer-mom who would like to sue God for the death of her husband, hit by a lightning bolt on the 15th hole of a municipal golf course. Hoping to make enough money to stay afloat, the firm decides to sue 'big religion' for misrepresentation. The case is complicated, however, when the opposition hire a former member of the firm and the love interest of the young lawyer to represent them, and then further complicated when an indigent with no background and an uncanny knack of knowing everyone's background enters the courtroom claiming to be God. Batting back and fore between the courtroom and the personal lives of the lawyers, God is a fast paced courtroom comedic drama that uses original staging and non-linear storytelling to provide a lighthearted yet complex social drama.

A comedy set over four acts, Writing William follows a young, aspiring playwright who, in order to get his work on stage, forges a Shakespeare play. Basing the play on the relationship between Henry II and Eleanor of Aquitaine during the murder of Thomas Becket, the playwright, Will, starts to see it mirror his own failing marriage as he struggles to find approval from an unforgiving spouse. Backed by a working class billionaire and supported by an array of ageing actors, the lead of which is mute, Will finds cathartic release in the writing of the play and it's impending production, but he hasn't taken into account just how gullible the theatre going public truly are. With the play a hit, he is faced with the choice of coming clean and reaping the rewards at the risk of being shunned by his audience, or staying true to his art. A comedic farce, Writing William blends Shakespearian dialogue with modern humor and innovative staging to look at the relationship of the artist and his art, the burden of success upon a relationship and the true cost of producing a play. Number of Characters: 8-10 Setting: New York Bar / Theatre

Second Edition, now with over 25 pages of new content. Blood is currency in Avenesse. Mortals faced extinction from the undead legions of the Deathlands. Vampires called nephilim offered a bargain: protection for blood. Facing slavery or annihilation, many mortals submitted. Now blood is currency, vampirism is political power, and undead unsanctioned by the Lunar Emperor must be destroyed. Ashia Boucher is the mortal daughter of the nephilim who watches over the Deathlands border. Her father shields Ashia from Avenesse's harsh realities and turns a blind eye to her pursuit of forbidden necromantic blood magic. A new Terror haunts Ashia's family and all Avenesse. Lead by the outlaw Dualo, renegade vampires murder mortals and nephilim alike. With the help of the gunslinging witch hunter Etienne Dusang, the mischievous changeling Tamalandrea and the demon horse Uisthre, Ashia must face the Terror threatening Avenesse or die to her family's numerous enemies.
