It is Victorian England. Filled with the mists of fog, villagers of a range of emotions and types. 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 World 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, 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!

John is a veteran writer, having started in his pre-teen years after the first Sputnik went into orbit. He wrote a short story about an American astronaut trying to bring it down before it used a nuclear weapon on the United States. Since those days John has spent decades working on his 3D design skills, utilizing them to create dazzling animations for fun, as well as profit. Not to mention really cool abstract art, fun character designs, beautiful landscapes and interesting architecture. When not playing with his computer toys, John has also been writing, writing, writing. He played for awhile in Hollywood, working for Disney, Harmony Gold and Filmation in the animation industry. Eventually, he got his MFA in Experimental Animation and used that experience to start his own animation business, while still seeking to get better and better as a writer of children's stories and adults. John's current body of work is published on both Amazon and Smashwords and can be found in digital form as E-books. This coming summer John intends to get the body of his digital work into print form as well. Also, let it be said that John loves birds, chapatis, cherries, science fiction and fantasy, good hearts and kind words. John is the proud caretaker of two cockatiels...Baby Baby and Angel Light.
