Salutations

Well hello there, I am Ashley Corgan and welcome to the "Enigma Vestibule".

I got dragged into this blogging craze via a pair of internet degenerates, I prefer LiveJournal but apparently those are the online equivalent of a teeny-bopper diary and a Blogspot is like a garage band lyric book that eventually gets published as part of some 7 Disc "greatest hits, special limited edition" boxed set.

So here I am.

Yup.

I guess a bit of rambling can be done to further elaborate on why this blog exists. I'm the current writer of the Dark Fantasy series Ars Magna @ Artifice Comics. Ars Magna is the sister title from the short stories entitled Talisman where a pre-teen girl named Sheila Torrance discovers 2 handsized statuettes that can transform into wonderfully, powerful creatures called Talismans. (Dammit all, there is a wiki entry about this somewhere. Blast it. Ah well.)

In the midst of it all I also created a third storyline to parallel Talisman and Ars Magna (here now known as T/AM), called Seraphim Wing. Where Talisman is focused on the interactions of the Talisman Mythos and humanity, and Ars Magna is focused on Magic in the Artifice Universe, Seraphim Wing is about the conflict of Magic and Technology.

So to recap:

• Talisman = man as creator
  
• Ars Magna = man vs himself
  
• Seraphim Wing = man vs his creation

Thats about it for now. I think there is an interview of me being posted somewhere, I'll link to that once it hits the information superhighway. Expect my story releases to be posted up here and any tidbits and DVD-type extras to pop up from time to time.

I don't intend to neglect this blog but it'll be more of a weekly ritual than a daily diary of what cantaloupe tastes like after my boss throws a shit fit earlier that morning.
