My Father’s Armour




“George Lucas had Two Daughters, and he harboured a strong belief that Science Fiction and Fantasy could — and should — appeal to preteenage Girls. And thus Asla was brought up in age and reborn as Ahsoka Tano, aka Snips, Padawan-Learner to Jedi-Master Anakin Skywalker.”





“It's Star Wars starring 
an eleven-year-old girl.”

— George Lucas

Oblivion

Reading from "Oblivion" on WPR (2004)


In fact, The 'Oblivion Machine' is the name 
in this story for The Entertainment INDUSTRY 
- comics, books, mags, film, TV, social media
that consumes our mortal hours, 
wasting The Days of Our Lives in
'picture shows' of all kinds.

which originally aired on the American Television 
Network NBC from 1965 to 2022
