We are back from Sci-Fi Valley Con 2015 in Altoona, PA and WOW, did we have a great time! Usually when people ask how we liked a con, I can smile and say some good things about it, happily share some pictures of cosplayers, and report that we sold enough merchandise to make it worthwhile. […]
Without further ado, here are some snapshots of the Ascension Epoch booth, the convention floor, and, of course, cosplayers from 2015 Sci-Fi valley Con in Altoona, PA.

Shell and I will be leaving for Altoona in the morning for this year’s Sci-Fi Valley Con, and we hope to see you over the weekend. We will be at booth R7 (see the floor plan below) with the usual panoply of goods, including five print books, e-books on CD, art prints, and the super […]
In this final installment in a three-part series investigating what the inhabitants of the Ascension Epoch universe actually know about the secret history and strange phenomenon of their world, we we examine what is generally known about the myriad worlds of the Empyrean and the aeons-long celestial war that holds the earth under siege. –Go […]
On #AnnotatedTuesdays, we will share a quoted passage from some public domain source that has informed the Ascension Epoch universe, followed by commentary on how we used it. The Martians are able to discharge enormous clouds of a black and poisonous vapour by means of rockets. They have smothered our batteries, destroyed Richmond, Kingston, and […]
The Ascension Epoch will be dawning at the Lehigh Valley Comic Con this Saturday, and we hope you’ll make the drive over to Schnecksville, PA to check us out. We’ve even got a new book to sell you–a book that you can only get at the convention! The con is Saturday only, from 10AM-4PM, and […]
Since Shell recently completed a new cover for After Dark (seen above), I thought I would share a scene from it for today’s #SaturdayScenes. While chasing down a couple of purse snatchers, Torrent and X come face to face with the notorious (and superhumanly athletic) vandal known as Thorpe. I lunged sideways, stretching out as […]
April 30, 1929: Under orders from Marius Brezeanu (better known as Doctor Mirabilis), Banat Republic troops invade Transylvania, slaughtering Count Orlock and over two dozen of his vampire warlords. Doctor Mirabilis, derided by some as ‘The Despot of the Banat,’ had recently led a revolution that overthrew the rule of the German industrialist barons in […]
Continuing in the series of articles investigating what the inhabitants of the Ascension Epoch universe actually know about the secret history and strange phenomenon of their world (part one addresses non-human civilizations), today we take a look at the nature and origin of talents and paranormal phenomena. What does science say about superpowers? What is […]
Welcome to Picture Ptuesday! (Wherein Mike puts Shell in charge of an article and she posts a work in progress piece of Ascension Epoch art instead.) Seriously, though, sometimes I want to share my art, too, and when that happens, I’m going to hijack whatever day of the week it is with a silent ‘P’ […]
