So this is what I’ve been working on today

Books of appearance [L-R]: The Secret Wife (Micah Reeder), Addicted (Drake Hallow), Scourge (Lee Aranda).

Their love interests (who happen to be the protagonists of the books) are also in order L-R:

You’ve seen these girls before. Allyson Ashland, Blair Hunter, Camden Hailey. <3

5 Reasons Sylar Should Be Considered The Title Character of Heroes

EDIT FROM 2019: Hello there! This post is now 8 years old, though it’s still one of the highest-performing posts on my site. SEO FTW. If you want to learn more about what 2019 me, an award-winning independent filmmaker, is up to, head to BriCastellini.com.

So I’ve consumed every episode of Heroes in the period of about a week, and as is my nature, I felt a blog was needed.
