Charn (Part I)

Hey all

So this it totally not related to anything comic book or movie or anything.

This is me shamelessly plugging my own story that I'm working on, "Charn"

Charn is intended to be the story of the city of Charn, introduced in C.S. Lewis' book "The Magician's Nephew" as the birthplace of Jadis, the White Witch, and a title character of his more famous book "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe." My story will also detail the origin of Jadis, and the path that led her to where she is when first introduced in the Narnia series.

As an added, twist, my story will show the origins of Charn and Jadis' bloodline as coming from the land of Oz, most well known from L. Frank Baum's "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" and its many, many adaptations.

My goal is to bridge these two fantasy worlds together into one larger story, using Charn as the connective tissue.

If that sounds interesting to you at all, check out the first section, connecting Oz to Charn. Some of the characters here are from the second Oz book, "The Marvelous Land of Oz" as well as those from the first book "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz."

Star Wars: Episode IV v. Episode VII

Hello again readers! As a follow-up to last week's Star Wars post, I have yet another Star Wars post for you here today! I read many comments from viewers of The Force Awakens (including George Lucas, apparently), making such claims that it was the same as A New Hope, a copy of A New Hope, a reboot of A New Hope, etc.

So in response, I created this chart showing that, while there are indeed similarities in the plot, the characters themselves in The Force Awakens are very different than their New Hope counterpart, which means that this film and the future of the trilogy is sure to play out differently that the Orig Trig.

Star Wars Map

Hello again, viewers. It's me, once again trying to resurrect this blog that I spent so much time and effort to create before letting it fall into obscurity. After many failed revitalization attempts, I have created the New Years Resolution to create AT LEAST ONE NEW POST per week. Hopefully that will last.

SO, at the end of the first full week of 2016, here is the first post! And it's about...Star Wars?

Ok, so that's odd for me. I had never seen any Star Wars movie (other than A New Hope) until about a month ago. I had tried many times to watch but just kept falling asleep. They bored me. BUT with all of the hype for episode 7, I decided to try again, but starting with Episode I rather than Episode IV. I still had to stop for breaks a few times because I came close to falling asleep, and I still don't care for episodes I-VI, but I finally made it through the series, including the Clone Wars film, and about 30-40 episodes of the show, and ended with Episode VII. Clone Wars and TFA I actually enjoyed, so I guess that's something?

Anyway, as I was going through, there were so many characters and planets and things that frankly are just gibberish words, and it became clear I wouldn't be able to keep track of everything just from memory, so as I was viewing I created this map to keep everything straight. Check it out, let me know what you think, and may the Force be with you to hold you SW fans over until Rogue One.
