Space Command, The Next Generations

Hey folks, I've got a partial rough draft script for a SNL styled short that sounds kind of fun to me. The problem is, I'm not very political, and I don't have much time. The only way this is likely to get made, is if I find some folks who would like to work with me on it as a fun diversion. There will not likely be any financial compensation to this, unless we sell the finished product. I was planning on just posting it on YouTube and seeing if it got noticed, but if someone

NEVER TALK TO PEARS WHILE WALKING DOWN STAIRS - A ONE MINUTE SHORT FILM

For a One minute short film, this horror/comedy (if that's what you can call it) has been one of my favorite distractions for the last month or two. Yes, the title is almost as long as the movie itself, but long titles are all the rage these days. Anyhow, I've never really made a real short film before, but Film Riot put together a one minute movie challenge that offered some amateur film-making gear as the prizes. Since my gear is even less than amateur, I decided to give th

MATRIX SPOOF

Introducing, my second ever short film: WHY OH WHY DIDN'T I TAKE THE BLUE PILL? (Also, check out my 1st short ever. It was a cheeky 1 minute movie for a FilmRiot competition.) Why Oh Why Didn't I Take The Blue Pill is a parody based on the first Matrix movie. Since this is the 20th anniversary of that movie's release, it's fitting that we celebrate with a little fun. For me, I loved the Matrix. It was new and fresh, in a dark-damp sort of way, and it had quite an impact on mo

ONE FOR THE MONEY / TWO FOR THE SOUL

I'm so excited and for more reasons than you might think. I've just finished the rough draft for my next book, "One For The Money, Two For The Soul". Now let’s be clear, anytime I finish a book, I feel elated. But there is more to this than just another book completion. Yes, my skill has gotten better and yes, I do believe that this book will likely be a best seller, but I’m looking forward to more than just that. If you follow me on Goodreads, you may notice that I enjoy rea

SHOULD YOU WRITE WITH AN AGENDA - DO I

This is kind of like celebrities. Once they get famous, they feel like they need to tell the whole world what it should be doing. Most writers however aren't famous. And even if they were, having an agenda can get pretty old pretty fast. Having said that, I've known authors argue both sides of this. I know some authors who simply want an adventure for the reader to lose themselves in. I've also known many authors who want their novel to bring a particular point to light. The

THE PRETTY LITTLE DOLLY - BECAUSE I LOVE LAUGHING AT MYSELF

For fun this year, my wife and I decided we'd plan out our church group's Christmas Party. It was a lot of fun. Also, this was probably the first chance anyone got to see my writing performed. Yes, I actually wrote a Christmas program to go with that party. Not only was it a success, but I got to make a complete fool of myself. That might be unfortunate for some people, but for me, I just thought it was fun. This is because I got to sing a song that I've been dying to try. No

WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO WRITE - MY JOURNEY

Some years ago, I got married. Like most newlyweds, I was happy for that first year. But then child number one came along. I don’t know if this is the same for every father, but it was a big moment for me. Suddenly, I realized that I was responsible for raising a family. My wife and I decided that we wanted to give our children the best possible upbringing that we could, so she decided to stay at home to raise our kids instead of trusting that job to someone else. This isn’t

PAIGE BRISCOE - ILLUSTRATOR

So often we focus on the writers of our books. Many books however, would be nothing if not for their illustrators. Nowhere is this more true than in children's literature. We've featured the Utah author, Leslie Zimmerman, now welcome her extraordinarily talented illustrator, Paige Briscoe. Sadly, Paige decided to move out of Utah. A Provo native, she now calls Montana home. Yes Montana is beautiful and we're sure you had good motives--never mind that though, we still welcome

WHAT ARE NEPHILIM

"Okay, so you're writing some books about Nephilim. Great--What are Nephilim?" This is usually the first question I get when I tell people about the books in my Nephilim Series. נפלים (Hebrew for Nephilim) Nephilim are a group of people, mentioned in the Bible. Depending on which version of the Old Testiment you read (or have but don't read), the Hebrew word is often just translated as "giants". Nephilim also translates as "the fallen ones". Other names mentioned in the Bible

THE NEPHILIM CONSPIRACY - Book 3 of 3

ISBN-13-978-1-943239-04-7 By B.C. Crow In general, conspiracies are bad. Some are downright devastating. When the world finds itself in the clutches of the most sophisticated cabal of our generation, the most unlikely group of hero's must risk all, not excluding their own lives, to prevent a last and final war that would end all wars, not to mention freedoms. In my opinion, this final volume of the Nephilim Series is my best. You won't want to miss this epic conclusion to th

LESLIE ZIMMERMAN - CHILDRENS STORIES - VETERANS ADVOCATE

A some years ago, my wife brought home a little children's book. This self-published book by Leslie Zimmerman was cute and fun. It wasn't made for mass production, and most of the copies, from what I understand, were donated to children's foundations. Fast forward to today, I was approached by none other than Leslie herself, (or maybe we approached her) asking if Blue House Publishing would like to help her publish her next book, but for the masses this time. We are now proud

LIVING THE DREAM

A lot of people scoff at dreamers. Even I once felt ashamed to think that I was a dreamer. But then I learned a very distinct and important perspective. Being a dreamer is a good thing. Dreams are where hope springs from. But herein lies the problems. If you have your head in the clouds all day, then you don't ever accomplish much. The best dreamers are the ones that not only have an idea, but act on it. There is no contradiction between "Dreamers" and "Doers". If you're a dr
