Hey everybody! Since I've been taking my hiatus from the Callisto things have been incredibly crazy…mostly in a good way. I have some exciting news that I'd like to share with you guys. I've had my first novel published. Its called "Dream Wanderers". It's a science fiction/fantasy type story that takes place across the universe. I'm not going to tell you more than that, but if you have a chance take a peek at my web site. It's dreamwanderers.com The site is a work in progress, so please be patient with it. (And yes, that one thing on there is meant as a tribute to the Callisto. Check the site, you'll see what I mean.) I'm also co-author of a series of books on Walt Disney World that are currently being written. That's been a lot of fun, giving me a chance to relive the magic. I'll have more information on those books on the same web site when available. So that's what's been going on with me. I want to thank all my friends here at the Callisto. This place gave me that chance to practice writing, and gave me the confidence to think that I just might be able to do it. There's now a sequel to "Dream Wanderers" in the works. I never thought that I'd be able to finish one novel, but now I'm working on the second! My best to all of you. Brie

Thanks, Captain! Just remember that you once promised Brie that it's fruit juice from now on...
A couple of things I forgot to mention before. I designed the front and back covers for the book. That was a whole lot of fun, and something that I didn't ever really see myself doing. I'm really pleased with how they came out.
Also, if you get REALLY bored and decide to try to search Google, try Dream WanderersT. The name got mixed up somehow, but supposedly it's being corrected. (I'll believe it when I see it.)
Finally, don't forget to tell your friends about this! Tell your enemies! Add the link to everything, tattoo it across your forehead! Okay, maybe that's a little bit much, but I need all the help with publicity that I can get!

Thanks, Lieutenant! I hope you like what you see. I'm not exactly a web site designer, and am trying to keep the site really simple, for people (like me) with slow computers. I received a copy of my book in the mail on Saturday. To hold it in my hands...what a cool feeling!
