Going Back in Time to Save the Titanic
It was a massive movie set. A pool of rolling water the size of a football field with a giant fake ship stuck in it. A replica of the Titanic. It was surrounded with tennis-ball-green walls. A fake horizon was to be copied and pasted in post.

How to Survive in a World of Mortals and Mayhem
In the eons of time and space, many say all things are not only possible but expected and maybe foreseen. I am Captain Wayne Wainwright of the 2nd Regiment of the York Militia; I was born in 1765. I was born the seventh son of a seventh son. The first time I died was at the Battle of Queenstown on October 13th, 1812. I have lived many secret lives and some not so secret amongst the morals. This is my story and maybe the story of other immortals as well. Read the lessons I list in this volume and take them to heart.

I am sure he is extremely nice and caring otherwise my Servants would not have engaged him.

Not Like in the Movies
Over the course of my childhood, like anyone, I have had my fair share of obsessions. Like anything temporarily interesting for a child, they come and go quickly as soon as something else catches their attention.

By “impact”, I mean writing a whole book about it!

Son of Superhero
by: Dennis R. Humphreys (the Dream Writer) My father's boots have been hard ones to fill. He was larger than life, and even though I inherited his powers, I looked up to him beyond what might be considered the typical hero. My mother, Clovis Sane worshiped him, and even to this day, her memory of him is one of idolization. My father was killed when I was twelve, by a Craptonite bullet, from a man who hated him his entire life... Rex Luber. The police killed his killer within seconds of him firing that fatal bullet, but it was done, and the man, the world over that adored him, lost something of importance.
