Now that this series is done (mostly - I do have an idea for one more installment), I thought I might share some of my mental "casting notes" for some of the spirit avatars. -- Megajoule




I read through these in one sitting a night or two ago, could not pull myself away...absolutely beautiful portraits of each zone's "personality". Great blend of poignance and hard-boiled grit. I especially love the line, "The Row don't back down, and the Row don't run." -- AlwaysAPrice 06:26, 13 July 2007 (MST)

One thing that strikes me about the Brickstown story is the allusion to the Tale of Gilgamesh... with the two combatants in a deadlock for days, neither one willing to concede. Of course, in this case, instead of Gilgamesh cheating, the Arachnos breakout interrupted the contest. Good stuff! -- Soul Train 09:46, 13 July 2007 (MST)


That was awesome! I read through most of them while at work, just now (I need to get these invoices inputted!). I could really only relate to the Pocket D one - Being an avid Redsider and all...Still...Very cool! And very well-written. Antares

These stories inspired me to write my own fictions for this game and others. And taught me the personal rewards for working with character concepts within the game lore. You are truly a gifted writer. Kudos to you! -- Ant 10:06PM EST May 30, 2011

I've read these several times, and still enjoy each one. Your personification of each zone is superb. I was wondering if you'd do a new one for Galaxy with the changes in i21, so I checked and lo and behold there it was. It, like the others, did not disappoint! Madame emacia

"Your finale to the series did not disappoint at all. You've done right by all the subjects of your writing, and quite frankly inspired me to get into my characters' heads more. Whatever you do, and wherever you go after CoH goes dark will be better off for your creativity and participation. My hat off to you, sir/madame. Emacia
