Announcing My First Short Story

I'd like to announce the first of what I hope will be many short stories.

This story is a science fiction tale about time travel. Specifically, it's about the implications of what would actually actually happen if time travel were invented, and why you can't go back in time and kill Hitler.

From the Amazon description: With the invention of time travel, the government had to step in to ensure that no one changed history. They created time agents, and one such agent finds himself in an impossible situation. He must save the timestream by protecting one of the most evil men in history.

What an atheist taught me about faith

Every geek has their own favorite science-fiction franchise. It could be Star Wars, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, or even a franchise that doesn't have "star" in the title. These franchises are more than just escapist fantasy, we connect with them on every major level, watch them over and over, and talk about them nonstop to anyone who will listen, and others who don't want to but we just won't shut up about it. For me, that franchise is Babylon 5.

The show itself is still one of my favorites. It came out when I was in high school and ended when I was in college, and years later watching it takes me right back to that time. I had my whole future ahead of me. I didn't know what I wanted to be, I just wanted to make something of myself and put my mark on the world. Watching that show inspired me, and it still does to this day. True, the show itself is excellent, and I plan to keep watching it for the rest of my life. But the source of my inspiration is not actually the show, it's the writer, J. Michael Straczynski. (Or JMS for short.)
