Back with another look at the soundtrack! This time featuring “Closer to the Dead” (as always, by ultra-talented Josh McCausland)!

The video on this one is a little different than those that have come before… still abstract, but really hinting at certain elements of the book as well. Secrets abound…

There’s still time to back the Kickstarter for the exclusive vinyl release of the soundtrack, and the deluxe-hardcover novel, all with designs by me. There are other rewards (including digital copies and softcover) as well, so hopefully a little something for everyone!

It’s gonna take a big push this final week to get it over the line, but I’m holding out hope it can happen. Every little bit helps, so if you’re interested, I’d be thrilled for you to check out the link below:

A first look at the soundtrack element of this project! So excited to have Josh McCausland’s massive talent creating the moody sounds of this dark sci-fi universe!

This song is entitled “Sensory Deprivation” and will feature on the Color of a Mirror original soundtrack, as part of my multi-disciplinary novel/soundtrack/design experience.

(Motion graphics and design by me.)

If you like what you see and hear, there’s only 10 days left in the Kickstarter! Check out the link below, and thanks for looking!

Back to taking about the book!

Check it out below:

IT’S ALIVE!

(Still feeling the spooky Halloween vibes apparently.)

But for real though, this book I’ve been working on for years and the soundtrack that goes along with it are finally available on Kickstarter. I couldn’t be more excited... also terrified. But also excited. Haha.

I always tried to take part in NaNoWriMo back in the day, and always stalled out after a few days. (Now I understand that that ultra-concentrated format just doesn’t mesh with my process.) Maybe this year, though, I can turn that around and do a NaNoPubMo.

If you’re interested, here’s the link:

Come experience my dark future version of the moon!

COLOR OF A MIRROR

Can’t believe I’m finally revealing this project... feels like I’ve been working on it forever. But yes! Here it is! I wrote a dark science fiction novel--and what’s more, is it has an original soundtrack thanks to the ever-talented Josh McCausland!

After a year of trying to find my way into the realm of traditional publishing, I have decided to pursue self-publishing through a crowd-funding model, because this project extends to more than just the writing. It’s about the aesthetic and the music, and all of it together... publishing in this less-traditional way allows me to craft the final product I’ve always envisioned and really showcase the vision in my head.

I’ll be talking more about it in the coming days, and posting some further insights, but for now, I’ll leave you with this: if you like the lyrical writing style of Patrick Rothfuss that lingers on language and character, plus the brooding futures of William Gibson and movies like Blade Runner... this book might be for you.

Coming to Kickstarter on Nov. 01, 2022. I hope you’ll join me on this journey.
