I am known as Iriplenex, or Mitchell if you prefer normal/simpler names. Born an raised in the Midwest in a farming village, there was little to do if it wasn’t an outdoor activity. Sure, I was an rambunctious child that sprinted around the house and jumped from trees everywhere I could. But the reasoning was because I was pretending to be an elf, or an astronaut fighting aliens.

I’ve loved fantasy and science-fiction since I can remember, dousing myself with any make believe world I could get my hands on. And when I was out of books to read, I just made things up, that’s where my love for making stories came from.

Apotheosis Abounds (working title), came from a long standing idea that no matter the origin, we all struggle with the human condition. So, putting those stresses on outside characters, some of them aren’t even human, is fascinating to watch. My favorite stories have come from characters growing and developing into better people than when they started, and that’s the goal. This story is not Young Adult. My work contains very adult concepts, ranging from murder to suicide and the entire gamut of human experience.

With your help, I can make this the best science-fiction drama that I am able by offering feedback and letting me know if you are enjoying the creation of the story and the worlds.
