    I suck at drawing. It's as simple as that. But photography allows me to create in a different way, so here's a compilation of my best. Updates will come regularly, but not periodically, because sometimes I get a good photo first try, but usually it takes between 50 and 200 takes. Be aware, all the photos are free to use, I don't mind, I believe in the Public Domain. Enjoy!

    GAM is a dark sci-fi fantasy book that is my ode to the young adult fantasy world of Twilight and the Hunger Games. The themes are definitely adult and the language isn't what I'd consider PG-13 but core characteristics are there: love triangles, supernatural abilities and plenty of angst. It's also a launching point for an expanded universe full of fresh takes on old characters.

    Victor Frankenstein, a young college dropout with grand aspirations, has nowhere to go. Until by a stroke of luck, he runs into a carriage owned by a man named Hastie Lanyon, who just happens to know a scientist who's looking for an assistant. And this scientist is none other than Henry Jekyll. And that goes about as well as you'd expect.

    In a world that once worshipped heroes and now fears them, Captain Tootsie is a relic-an ex-hero who hung up his costume after watching ideals rot into authority and justice turn into control. The age of colorful morality is over. In its place stands a brutal new order led by figures like Black Terror and Dynamic Man, heroes who decided the world works better when ruled by fear, efficiency, and "necessary" violence. As crime vanishes and freedom follows it into the grave, those who refuse to conform are hunted, erased, or forced into silence. Some heroes submit. Others disappear. A few-like Tootsie-remain dangerously out of step with the times, clinging to the belief that power does not grant the right to decide who deserves to live. Into this broken world comes Mitchell, a young girl awakening to an ancient and terrifying force: the mantle of the Green Sorceress, a power tied to balance, nature, and ruin itself. To some, she is a child who needs protection. To others-Heaven, Hell, and the new heroic regime alike-she is a looming catastrophe that must be controlled, weaponized, or destroyed before she fulfills a prophecy of world-ending rebirth. Caught between divine judgment, infernal manipulation, authoritarian "heroes," and cosmic destiny, Mitchell becomes the axis upon which the future turns. Connor, a reckless would-be hero with raw power and stubborn hope, stands between her and annihilation. Ayesha, a sorceress who understands the cost of magic, tries to guide her without breaking her. And Captain Tootsie-haunted by past failures and visions of what Mitchell might become-faces a final reckoning: remain a man who walked away, or become a hero again in a world that no longer wants them. As angels mobilize, demons hunt, and heroes become tyrants, the story asks a brutal question: Is the world saved by control-or by mercy? And if the future must burn, who gets to decide what rises from the ashes?

    Entered the Public Domain in 2022! The quintessential novel of the Lost Generation, The Sun Also Rises (Fiesta) is one of Ernest Hemingway's masterpieces and a classic example of his sparse but powerful writing style. A poignant look at the disillusionment and angst of the post-World War I generation, the novel introduces two of Hemingway's most unforgettable characters: Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley. The story follows the flamboyant Brett and the hapless Jake as they journey from the wild nightlife of 1920s Paris to the brutal bullfighting rings of Spain with a motley group of expatriates. It is an age of moral bankruptcy, spiritual dissolution, unrealized love, and vanishing illusions. First published in 1926, The Sun Also Rises helped to establish Hemingway as one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century.

    After 20 years of extended copyright laws, 2019 welcomed the first new works into the public domain. This includes everything published in 1923. That means - like a real artist - you can steal to your heart's content. In celebration of these hundreds of new works, I thought it'd be fun to take the 1923 H.P Lovecraft short story What The Moon Brings and substitute just enough words to make it romantic instead of deeply unsettling. Please enjoy, like, comment, and all the rest. If projects like this spark your creativity, leave links to your own adjustments to new public domain work in the comments. I'd love to see what you come up with!

    Jonathan Battle, a retired war veteran in his mid-twenties, embarks on a new mission-not as a soldier, but as a superhero. After a tragic military operation, he leaves the service but remains committed to fighting injustice. In the basement of his home, he prepares to don a specially designed superhero suit, created by his friend Jane Lorrain. The suit, adorned with patriotic colors and a white star, symbolizes his new identity as Captain Battle. Jane warns him that once he takes this step, there is no turning back. She urges him to reconsider, pointing out that law enforcement and other superheroes could handle the crisis he is preparing to face. However, Jonathan is unwavering in his decision. He recalls a childhood friend, a Jewish boy who was bullied for his ethnicity, and the vow he made to stand up for those who couldn't defend themselves. That promise led him to the military, and now, it compels him to become a hero. Jonathan's mission is clear: stop a violent Neo-Nazi group that has been terrorizing the Jewish community in New York City. Armed with a jetpack and photon blasters, he sets out to protect the innocent. As he flies toward the crisis, Jane provides him with real-time updates, urging him to hurry before it's too late. This marks the beginning of Jonathan Battle's transformation into Captain Battle, a hero determined to fight for justice, protect the vulnerable, and stand against hatred
