Casting Call for New Project

The Ghost’s Talisman is photo graphic novel, or fumetti, written by award winning author and editor Jennifer Brozek and photographed by the award winning photographer Amber Clark. It is the story of an ordinary girl thrown into extraordinary circumstances, a ghost who needs her help, and a sorceress who will stop at nothing to possess both of their souls. The Ghost’s Talisman is told through photos and sets (rather than traditional hand drawn methods) and shot in and around the Seattle metro area.

HALEY – A woman in her early twenties; she bares the bruises and injuries from a recent car accident.
XANDER – A man in his early twenties who has been dead for almost a year.
RYAN NORTH – A man in is thirties
AMANITA HAAF – Appears to be in her mid-thirties but is actually far older than that.
DEMON – A costume and make up intensive character
HUNTER – A spirit bound that seeks out XANDER and HALEY. A very tall, roughly human in shape that is black from head to toe and has predatory insect like movements.
UNCLE RICH – Late thirties, early forties, very smooth and dapper. He’s been around the black a few times

RustyCon was interesting in the fact that I felt like I was the living embodiment of balanced karma. If something bad happened, something good happened, too. And, vice versa. Here’s a bunch of good things that happened: Got my first meal for free. Spent a bit of time with Timothy Zahn and compared typos in published works. (His was worse by far.

Hard numbers: Write: 1 BattleTech novel, 1 SF novella, 5 short stories, [other projects in the works]. Edit: 2 BattleTech novels, 1 anthology,...
