Oscar's Oasis. An animated short film.


Oscar is a lizard living in a non-specific desert that has features from several different real deserts, like the Sahara, Kalahari Desert, and North American deserts. An asphalt concrete highway runs through the area, used from time to time by various cargo trucks. Oscar is generally searching for food or water; he sometimes discovers liquid, in bottles or elsewhere, but is usually frustrated from recovering it for drink. An oasis supplies the only fresh water in the area, but its thick population of irascible and hungry crocodiles renders it inaccessible. At considerable personal risk (lizard is a delicacy for chickens), Oscar occasionally manages to steal an egg from a nearby hen coop, and he sometimes explores one of the piles of trash that litter the parched landscape. Popy, a fennec fox; Buck, a vulture; and Harchi, a hyena, inhabit a derelict school bus situated on a neighboring hill, but they mostly race about on a cast-off warehouse or grocery cart powered by Harchi and directed by Popy. Like Oscar, the trio constantly search for food and water - often competing with him, sometimes abusing him as a means, but occasionally cooperating with him when it suits their purpose. The main characters often find themselves falling off cliffs a la Wile E. Coyote chasing the Road Runner, wherein the law of gravity is briefly suspended while the character comes to realize their imminent doom.

The Baker Street Adventures! Science fiction at its best. Sherlock Holmes at his finest. Adventure of the highest sort! Heart pounding action that never stops!



It is Victorian England, the Greater Britains.

Its people are a stout amalgamation of the common working man and exceptionally brilliant and imaginative inventors and leaders. Its architecture is brave, bold and marvelous to behold...from the Tower of Black Death to Queen Mary of Scots Windsor Castle.

This is not the London of our world, but of an alternate Earth, where magic works side by side with science, and where everything we have exists, but also the creations of what we have imagined here, exists there. In our world Dracula is a myth and a story by Bram Stoker, but in this world Dracula is alive and doing well.

Yes. Nothing is ordinary about this London. This London is not the London we know across the ocean, nor the one that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle so assiduously described, but rather a more advanced one in some ways and a more barbaric one in others.

It is a Baker Street Universe where all the heroes and villains we've come to know and love in fiction and fact have their existence. It is part of a series of stories and novels I've written that take the reader to a world and worlds where fantasy is real, where fictional characters live and breathe, and where villains are as dark and real as Jack the Ripper once was in our own world.

Sherlock Holmes is the greatest detective alive in this realm and is partnered by Doctor John Watson, a hero from the wars with China.

Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson form the hub of a group of fellow adventurers and travelers, who deliver justice when needed, and seek to right the imbalances, created by evil wherever it might appear. In this London there is much evil, not even including the rather mundane evil of thefts and murders.

In this London there exist things that go bump in the night, creatures that shift swiftly past the edge of our vision, that tiptoe into our bedrooms at night and peer into our faces when we are sleeping; monsters that seek to rearrange reality into hell on earth; monsters that must be investigated, discovered, found and destroyed at any cost.

Follow Sherlock Holmes, Doctor Watson, and a reborn from the dead Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Professor Challenger, the Invisible Man, Count Dracula, Jungle Lord, Captain Nemo, Harry Houdini, Nicolas Tesla, the Invisible Man, the Wolf Man and Madame Curie as they seek justice, truth and the Victorian Way!


I have been fortunate enough to record their adventures. I pray you will be as fortunate as I was to meet these brave men and women.

Gif animation announcement experiment.


Playing around with gif animation to make my posts.

First attempt.

Need to find an editor with more control. This is a free one, but very hard to center and edit
the images unfortunately.

If you know of a really good one, please let me know and I'll send you a free ebook with gratitude.

Thanks.

Chesteron K has one small problem. He hates small minds! And he can do something about it. Something no one would ever suspect! "The Worlds of If!"

Chesterton K is a nerdish teacher who is also a brilliant genius. He wows his students with his science, while secretly working on ground breaking technology that will open up the world of fractals to exploration.

Available now on Amazon!

 He succeeds in doing so, but finds out that not all fractals are made the same, and some will bite your ass of if you're not careful.

Available now on Amazon!

He doesn't look for trouble; but he also doesn't run away from it! As if that would do any good.
