My Introduction :)
I came on this site and immediate started responding to posts lol... forgot to actually make a proper introduction. My apologies!
My name is Amanda and I've been writing and drawing (and dancing) for years. In 2000 though, is when I got serious about those three passions and started doing something worthwhile with them. (for Jesus of course)
My story is Astria Legends. It is a story about unity, sin, repentance, sacrifice, prayer and even how our decisions affect those we will never come in contact with. In my world, the Angels are living breathing color...and their enemy is SIN, who are living breathing beings as well. Right now, there are two novels, one introductory comic, collectable cards, and one live trailer (dance show) has been done for the story. Now i've collected game creation software, animation software, a new art program, and a comic layout program...all of which i'm going to tryout and hopefully bring this story into even more avenues.
I'm a person who loves to help others, make people smile and give encouragement where I can. Feel free to chat, talk ask questions...whatever you like.

Oh, it's been up a few years now. It gets excellent reception, when I can get people to look at it. The story and all isn't as in the public as i would like it to be, and the things i've managed to do marketing wise hasn't gotten it very far. But hopefully when God feels its the right time, something will happen. Till then I keep trying :)

Hello! I just returned to this website today. Wow, your video presentation is impressive! I've seldom seen Dance as a story telling device, but I actually felt like I was understanding in a non-verbal way. Your story is very intriguing, I would like to learn more about it. The Lord seems to be blessing you, you have achieved much, novels, comics, and other expressions of your story. May the Lord use your passion to honor Him through your various arts and may your passion and your purpose never wane!

Why thank you! That means a whole lot to me! I was trying to do something totally different with the Dancing... most people do plays. I hope to take my novel and completely translate it into dance one day. The comic is up on the site so you can read it... but if you have any questions feel free to ask :D

CCAS at Comic-Con
The 'Spirituality in Comics' Panel from San Diego Comic-Con 2011
In comics, movies, and even Broadway musicals like “The Book Of Mormon”, spiritual themed work seems to be unexpectedly coming from the least religious of sources.
Panelists including SERGIO CARIELLO (The Action Bible), RUSSELL DALTON (Marvelous Myths: Marvel Superheroes and Everyday Faith), BUZZ DIXON (Serenity/Hits & Misses), and MIKE SHIELDS (Blue Blazes) discuss how a new generation of comics and pop culture are exploring timeless truths and also address the question “Is Mass Media Our New Church?”
