The town formerly known as St. Louis is now 'Defiance.' The scope of the show and game is going to be massive because you have the people who love the genre of gaming who love sci-fi; they're in bed together, normally.
I cannot live or write without music. It stimulates the normally dormant parts of my brain that come in handy when constructing fiction.
I just started as a part of the public school music program. I took lessons at the school every Friday and was a part of the school band. I was just a normal kid taking instrumental lessons at school, nothing special.

Normally, banks record profits on loans only as they are repaid, whether they securitize the loans or hold them on their books.
