Atomic Archaeology
Being a teenage Interplanetary Atomic Archaeologist is a big deal; inheriting your Grandpa’s sentient spaceship Daphne is an even bigger deal; but it’s an even more incredibly massive deal when The Collectors are after it and you can’t make the payments because you're only 14! Ean, his adopted brother Wimby, and their best friends Grizy and Liuna, only have 30 days to earn enough money to pay off Daphne’s debts, otherwise they’ll lose her forever!

200-250My Why:
I am a massive fan of science and adventure stories, the kinds of tales that carry with you as you go about your life, daydreaming about all the possibilities. I want to tell a story that has all of the grand adventure of those epics but really focuses on the relationships of characters going through these ordeals and sometimes how it’s hard to be heard. The characters in this project are all growing up and learning how to deal with new and sometimes difficult aspects of life. There are also many elements of real science and physics in the story all wrapped up within a humorous space epic!
