Project List

I was previously known by another handle using my C. J. initials, but I changed it to give a fresh start. I have the unfortunate curse of having many, many ideas and only two hands to complete them with. It is the result of my Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) that I do not have enough focus to stick with one project and get it done quickly. Instead, I have to divert my attention by going from project to project, making little bits of progress here and there until something comes out. Typically, the projects that come out more frequently will be articles. Below are a list of my completed projects followed by a list of projects I am working on.

Here are the Star Frontiers projects I have completed to date:

Star Questions with Sage Advice to Dispel Confusion - ?


Besides these, I also have a number of renderings in the magazines.

After Adventure Pets! (which appeared an issue later), I got tired of the personal attacks, most particularly the cyberstalking from Corvus, so I took a long hiatus. Issue #12 marked my official return to Star Frontiers production.

Here are the Star Frontiers projects and their descriptions that I am working on. If you were at starfrontiers.us before my hiatus, you will recognize several of the book projects (Yes, I'm still working on them.) in no especially particular order. Think of them as my dream list. Anything without a colored note beside it is not currently under production and I would be glad to see others do them:
