Elflandea is a story of survival like Lord of the Rings except about Elves instead of Hobbits, the magic of Harry Potter and the drama of Game of Thrones. At the core of Elflandea is the struggle for survival for a society of Elves and their search for the 20 High Elven Artifacts. Despite their great power, the Elves still need to deal with the personal aspects that people of today are undertaking today. Elflandea is a way of thinking that transcends life by brings out the best in people. These stories were written to improve the world and set a moral example that has never been seen before. The story line was created 30 years ago, through actual game play. But the scripting came to life through real life experiences. It's what I like to call Semi-Fiction. Elflandea is magic, drama, romance a place where dreams do come true. At the same time these stories are rooted in world and personal history. The dialogue in the scripting is based upon real stories with real people. The story line is about elves but they have many of the same issues that people have today. It's a parallel of real people with real problems. We are also going to create concepts that have never been seen before like armored Pegasus. Not the ones you find on a teenagers wall, I am talking about a mithril clad monster that is fast and a fighting platform used for dog fighting and close ground support i.e. P-51 Mustang. The scripting calls for dog fighting Pegasus using WW2 fighting maneuvers vs poison breathing dragons. I am a student of history so the essence is all based on aspects of real life past experiences. Elflandea sets an example of awakening people's minds. All too often the traditional way of thinking is grab what you can for yourself. This selfishness is so left brained fearful, it simply reeks of insecurity! We have a choice to elevate everyone around us and make this world a better place. Elflandea is a guiding light in an otherwise darkened existence. Most people have fragile egos and are simply insecure since their base motivations are fear and greed. True leadership is defined by great personal sacrifice not by how best to manipulate others through deceit and treachery. One of the world's greatest leaders Alexander the Great lead his army from the front and was never defeated. All too often lying and stealing from friends, family and others in "business" is becoming all too common. People are motivated by what they can get, not what they can offer. We will see this in the story, this is what people are enduring every day, including myself. People today are looking for a short term fix instead of long term gains. We need to show the world that there is a better way. That working with each other the people of earth can win when we stifle our egos and think globally instead of selfishly. Elflandea addresses hot social issues of today and sends a clear message on how to survives. Our mission more than anything is to shape the hearts and minds of individuals and illicit action above words. We are scripting to discuss, drug usage (legalization), plight of single parents, relationships between parents and their children, true love, war, loss, gain, financial destitute, mental illness, reincarnation, homosexuality, stealing, scams in short anything and everything that is real life today is present in Elflandea. All of the images of Elflandea look like photos of a fantasy world. I decided to go with digital look because Elflandea needs to look real. Historical accuracy is a must have. The story line that I created addresses real life issues and the storyboard and card art needs to look realistic. The art needs to look realistic in order to show our audience that the story is real. The setting is a fantasy world so the backgrounds need to be diverse. The background images will take our audience away to a place where they can escape.

About the Author: In order to create a believable world, a writer must know the world we live and have real life history. All of the dialogue that I have written is based upon real life conversations. The characters are based on a person that currently exists or as someone inside of me. I might be writing for a fictional world, but in reality its semi fiction. Semi fiction takes our everyday experiences and transports the viewer into another reality. Everything that I write about will have a social morale message that is happening today- drug use, parents, religion, love, relationships, loyalty, greed, power, racism, bullying; improving/degrading the world. I write to go beyond good vs evil, because we are stewards of how people think and with that responsibility we need to show a better example to people. So the dialogue in the scripting is based upon real stories with real people. The writing style has its own format. The original first story was written in Final Draft, but after reading the work I found it incomplete. Elflandea is so much deeper than what you can write on an abridged scripted version, there is so much history and background into each character, events, items and history. I was told to write a book, and get it published. But why do I need to pay someone $10,000 to write it in there format when they don't do the most important part which is market the story. So we decided to self-publish instead. And in that process we created the Semi Fiction writing style. A simple easy to read method that communicates details in a very concise and abridged version. People are too busy these days to read a thousand pages, so semi fiction is much shorter to read but gives the reader all of the detailed background except as direct as script. Julius Caesar had his own writing style that simply communicated to the public in a concise and direct way, so does Semi Fiction. Smaug the Dragon asks Bilbo who he is.
