The Antithesis revolves around several main themes; some of which a number of you perhaps hadn't thought about just yet. I know most of the excitement tends to obscure the more subtle implementations I'm trying to relay.The series' main focus is the rejection of duality--or good and evil. In the story, the concept of 'good' and 'evil' was derived solely for experimentation on the Celestials'

And the countdown begins. Book 2 Alpha left readers with a pretty shocking cliffhanger, but also served to answer the long-standed question pertaining to how Lucifer Raith had lost his hand. Pretty funny story, wasn't it?There are several issues that are now on the table. The Nehelian War against the Archaeans for claim over The Atrium is now not the only problem Qaira faces. In the climax of

So I finished another book this week. I started it in May, and it'll be about 450 pages long after publication. But that won't be for a while. It's the first book in a two book series, sort of a prelude to The Antithesis, so I won't be releasing it until probably the summer of 2012, after all of TA is in stores. You definitely WOULDN'T want to read this first, considering it contains a massive

Alright, so I'm noticing there's been some confusion among readers after the TA site was discontinued. Most are for some reason thinking The Antithesis is not continuing after Book 2 beta, which is not true. Let me make this very clear:The Antithesis is DONE. There are five books coming out in the series, and the series will be complete and out in stores by early 2012 (approximately).Here is the

One of my primary jobs as the 1889 Labs Ezine editor is to promote the press' published works. I do this fairly well, however it seems I'm having a harder time promoting my own stuff than I am promoting other people's. Why is that, you ask? It all comes down to this:Women aren't quite as receptive to The Antithesis as men, and women talk; men generally don't. This makes spreading the word

The upcoming TA Book 2 Beta (being released October 2011), contains the final portion of Decus and the entirety of Arc II.V: Cruor. We'd been 900 years in the past for so long that the present time TA seems like a distant memory. So what does Cruor entail?Qaira's back. And he's pissed. Despite Decus being almost a thousand pages long, it had only been several days from when Alezair left for the

The Antithesis is a series that is filled with mystery, action, suspense (sometimes painfully so), love, horror, tragedy.... All ingredients that make for a good epic. However, it is also philosophical. Actually, one of my primary goals while writing The Antithesis was to make sure readers were thinking while they went through it. There are many characters in TA who hold conflicting moral

The last couple of weeks have been extremely rough on me. I'm generally used to a hectic and significantly busy lifestyle, but this time I'm just completely worn out.I'm actually sitting here at 4:40 am, after having woken up from a medicated stupor at 10:00 pm. Two days ago I had to get my wisdom teeth removed (finally). I was supposed to have it done a month prior but the date was rescheduled.

There are two things I am passionate about:Science and writing.I try to do both at the same time, to considerable success. Those who are reading this and are familiar with my writing know what I mean. Those who are not are probably like, 'What?' so I'll elaborate.For me, writing fiction is not just writing a made-up story. That is perhaps the foundation of fiction writing, but how beautiful would
