Does anyone read this? Jedi Reloaded and more.

First, and to those of you who just recently started watching me, please don't take this the wrong way, but does anyone aside from my fiancé read my journals anymore? Just curious, as I lost my website at the beginning of this month, as Apple did discontinued support for the MobileMe service and did not keep web service with iCloud. Now this is the only place where I have an active blog until I get a new website up and running.

But now that I am back on DA more, I intend to start posting more stuff up here soon, including photos, digital work and baring another case of writers block or a midlife crises that requirers all of my attention, more JR. Speaking of which, as I progress the story further I have come up with a new concept for the story and in all a great plot assist device. Based on the autonomous actions of the LFO, a system will be created by Isara called Remote Command. Remote Command does exactly what it says it does, it allows the pilot(s) to remotely control the LFO, making the LFO just another foot soldier in the corp, but a heavily armed one at that. Now to keep this ability from becoming a Mary Sue, it will only work in ground combat, but even with that limitation, when it goes online for the first time it will strike serious fear in the hearts of Imperials. Speaking of which, while I rather not reveal to much about it, I will say it will be successful test in live combat during the Imperial Invasion of New Gallia, at the Battle of Fouzen. If you are familiar with what took place in Fouzen in Valkyria Chronicles 1, the situation will be similar, but far worse. This is the Galactic Empire we are talking about here, so yeah.

One question I have gotten from a few people is how I envision the series ending, and reaching that ending. Well from Day 1 the series has been set to end with a partial re-write of the Battle of Endor in ROTJ and the immediate aftermath. That being said, here is the Outline of the story by volume. As of right now the names for Volume Three and Four are tentative.

Volume 1: Prophecy: In this volume the story is set in motion and we meet many of, what I call the Tier 1 Characters (OC and Eureka Seven Characters).
Volume 2: Training: This volume marks the introduction of both the primary settings for the story, the Star Trek Universe and the Star Wars Universe. It also marks the introduction of the rest of the Tier 1 characters, plus all key Tier 2 and 3 Characters (OC, Valkyria Chronicles and Angel Beats).
Volume 3: Growth: By this point (Around Chapter 33) all but a small number of the key characters will have been introduced. This volume concentrates on the development of many of the characters as they start to assume the roles they will have by Volume 4. This volume ends with the Invasion of New Galia.
Volume 4: Destiny: Taking place immediately after the events on New Gallia, this volume opens with the events that bring about the Federation and it's allies (Post-Insurection) declaring war on the Galactic Empire. It then chronicles the process and events that lead to the Armada being assembled to go take the fight to the Imperials and said armada seeking out and allying itself with the Rebel Alliance after learning just how great a threat the Empire is by touring key areas in the Star Wars Universe post ESB and then allying with the Rebellion at Sullust. Upon allying with the Alliance, a new plan, slightly different from the ones the Rebels use in ROTJ will be formulated to counter the Empires counter to their attack. The volume will close with trade being established and our members of the corp realizing where their new, true home, is.

So otherwise, I start classes late next month and hope to start expanding my portfolio in new and exciting ways. Oh and then there is of course Geek Media Expo on October 26-28 in Cool Springs (Franklin), Tennessee. You all should attend if you can. Tickets are $35 till October 13, then they will be $45. In both cases this gets you in for all three days. I should mention I am the Web Outreach Coordinator for GMX, so What is GMX? Well...

GMX, the Geek Media Expo, is the Next Generation Multi-Fandom Convention. Based in Nashville, TN, GMX occurs annually toward the end of October. Originating in 2009, GMX was initiated by the same organization that has been producing MTAC, the Middle Tennessee Anime Convention, since 2009. As a multi-fandom convention, GMX features over 20 Channels of programming content, including Art, Literature, Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror, Comics, Digital and Tabletop Gaming, Science & Technology, Star Wars, Star Trek & British Fandom, Costuming & Props, and much, much more.

GMX brings together veteran and on-the-rise celebrity and artistic talent in an interactive forum with a focus towards quality in content and production level. GMX also features destination events, topical discussion panels, workshops, vendors & artist exhibitions, contests and more! Not limiting its scope to a singular weekend in the calendar year, GMX produces social and entertainment events throughout the year in leading up to the annual October exposition. GMX's growth has been explosive, with attendance effectively doubling each successive year, setting the stage for GMX to become Tennessee's largest and most celebrated multi-fandom exposition.

Get ready for Another 48 Hours of Cool!

I should also mention that my most recent information on the hotel says that over 70% of the rooms are booked. So if you want to go, book your room ASAP!
