I wanted to include the following video, but the only words that actually kind of suit the tone of what I am saying is the "where do we go from here" part. Ah shur, here it is anyway.
It's insane to think that in May 2002 I began writing a story, a story which developed over the ten years between then and 2012, into what is today published as "The ODDs Beginnings".
Although I always wanted to see the day the ODDs would be published it is still hard to believe that it has actually happened. But, now that it has, there is a sense of "what comes next?"
Firstly, sales of the actual books would be great. So I am going to include their covers, and where you can find them now!
The Book Depository is probably the cheapest place to buy the ODDs Beginnings. It has free postage to most countries in the world.The ODDs Beginnings.
At present Lee Kennedy is not in stock in the Book Depository, however, you can order it from Amazon, ignore the not in stock on the page, of course it isn't, no one has ordered it yet so they haven't either. Lee Kennedy on Amazon
Okay, so enough about both of them. Let's talk the future.
The more observant among you will have noticed that 'The ODDs' is published under the name 'Wavey' and 'Lee Kennedy' as 'David J. Cowpar'. There is a reason for this! The future of my book writing will make all of that become clearer, but I will tell you about it.
Everything published with the name 'Wavey' exists in the same fictional universe. This universe is called "the Waveyverse". Everything I write that doesn't find its home in the Waveyverse will be published by David J. Cowpar.
The Waveyverse:
This is the place where the ODDs exist. Here is the current stance of what will be coming out, and in the Waveyverse.
Presently available:
-The ODDs Beginnings (AUK, Nov 2013)
Presently complete, but as of yet unavailable:
-The ODDs 2: Chaos and Discord (hopefully available late 2014 or early 2015)
Works begun, but not yet completed:
-The ODDs 3: The Battle for Limerick.
-Erebus' Darkness (a story about an alien that crash lands on earth. The ODDs and Earth's Army [who appear in the ODDs] will be hunting the alien down.)
-Dahag: The Scourge of Moleth (this one is about dragons in Ancient England, about the time of the Roman invasions, [Dahag is the old Zoroastrian {that's a religion} or Persian word])
-Dahag: The First Ajaja (also about dragons, follows on from 'The Scourge of Moleth'. Ajaja is the Finnish word for Rider)
Works planned, but not begun:
-The ODDs Dragons (a spin off of the ODDs 2, which brings the Dahag story and the ODDs story together)
-Dahag: Chicago (the third Dahag story which brings the characters in Dahag into contact with some of the ODDs characters)
-The ODDs 4: Apocalypse.
-The ODDs 5: Colony
-Erebus War.
-Dimingo (a small lizard-esque creature that teaches kids history.)
-Dragon and Horse (a dragon and a horse that teach young kids about the alphabet.)
Possible Comic book series' that belong to the same universe:
-The Grand Masters (a prequel to the ODDs, like the Old Testament to the ODDs' New Testament, tells the stories through history that are alluded to in the Prequel of 'the ODDs Beginnings')
-The Adventures of James Games (another ODDs prequel, telling the story of the 4 years James Games was the first Water Empowered)
-Waves (my own superhero. He falls into radioactive water, with his radio studio, which is struck by lightning and he gains the powers of Waves)
-Earth's Army (the organisation mentioned in both the ODDs and Erebus series' own series)
Wavey Seas Themepark. With elements from all of those books (and TV shows and movies) as rides. This is the dream at least!
The non-Wavey verse books i.e. things published by David J. Cowpar.
-Sleeper (begun) a story about two cops investigating a modern day case of Sleeping Beauty.
-The Tale of the Magic Dust.
