Hello, dear readers. With this pandemic eating away at all our social lives, I decided to entertain all of you with a fan film based on the film Anastasia . Here, the daughter of Rasputin is recording the Grand Duchess herself as she dictates a ransom note to her grandmother, Dowager Empress Marie, and her husband Dimitri regarding instructions for the delivery of the ransom. Hope you enjoy.

Hello, dear readers. As we wait for the official premieres next month of my excerpt readings, I decided to upload a bonus excerpt reading installment from my Silver Quest miniseries. This installment, Battle for the Great Crystal , culminates the Quest for the Star Silver Shrine when the rest of the Guardian Sages are awakened as Shadow Lieutenants to battle the Dragon Warriors, but end up being purified and joining our heroines on the journey to the Whispering Woods, location of the Shrine. Hope you enjoy.

Hello, dear readers, young and old. Time for another heads-up, this time for early August. I'm sure many of you like Westerns in many shapes and forms, so I decided to read from my Quest for the Final Four  miniseries once more, with the selection being The Good, the Bad, and the Roxy .  This is one installment I believe everyone will enjoy reading, since Roxy unknowingly sets into history the career of one of Princess Luanne's distant relatives while allying herself with new characters against a common enemy who is convinced to conquer the Melania of the past. If you wish for more information regarding this book or others in my series, look me up on my  Amazon Author Page  or my YouTube channel,  soseztheleadr . Thanks for watching, thanks twice if you purchase this book, and as always, keep smiling, and keep dreaming.

Hey there, dear readers. Just wanted to give you guys a heads-up on the next installment of excerpt readings coming next month. I decided on the installment as I was sleeping on it last night, and I decided to read from Maia's Excellent Adventure . This book, I feel especially proud of, because Maia Sinclair, the main focal character in this story, is universally displaced in another dimension, where she meets a Fellowship of Light similar to her own and must save their Melania from shadow-eating Shadow Wraiths unleashed upon their city. Stay tuned to the soseztheleadr  channel on YouTube and keep watch over those videos, because they will premiere next month. In the meantime, keep smiling, and keep dreaming.

Hello, dear readers. After so much ruminating and pondering, I decided to rebuild my Yu-Gi-Oh Deck focusing on one of my more favorite Fusion Monsters, " Supreme King Z-ARC ". My last Deck-building attempt didn't turn out well, due to the fact that I was focusing solely on Performapal monsters.  But now that I switched my focus to Pendulum Magician cards, it seems to be building better than the last attempt. I also have to include Link Monsters, since Pendulum Monsters summoned from the Extra Deck still have to go into an Extra Monster Zone or a Main Monster Zone that a Link Arrow is pointing to.  Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz Monsters are no longer limited by Link Arrows or to the Extra Monster Zones, so the Deck has gotten some serious revision. Thanks for checking this video out, and as always, keep smiling, and keep dreaming.

Hello, dear readers. I decided to continue my excerpt readings series with a personal favorite of mine,  The Case of the Specter of the Spectre . This installment introduces the character Roxy Norrington, who is Luanne's cousin, and also their first mystery together as a mystery-solving team. Of course, anyone who reads through this book will think about Scooby-Doo and the Mystery Inc. gang, and that's OK, because I did base this story on certain elements of the Scooby-Doo franchise. I hope you enjoy it, and as always, keep smiling, and keep dreaming.
