I'm so excited to share finally that I will be starting my first ever journey through Star Wars this fall with Skywalk Before You Run. Even better, I will be joining the amazing network, Deus Ex Media.
Though I have had wonderful times with good ol' Jolkien Rolkien, I'm quite ready for another adventure.

Follow Skywalk Before You Run (even though nothing is there yet, we'll fix that later):
