I write because I love it. Now that my kids are grown, and much of the heavy lifting behind me, I have found my long lost love of writing has returned. I am convinced this love of writing will never cease. It may lay dormant for a while, but if I knock on its door, it seems, it will always open. One can only hope.

Jake Sullivan’s son wants to learn more about his father’s line of business and proves to be a savvy chip off the old block, earning the praise of his father’s admiration and respect. The family business uses a laundromat for funneling money gained from robberies in and around the city of Dublin, Ireland. While morally corrupt, Jake takes it one day at a time and walks proudly sober from alcohol after a lifetime of abuse. As he has tried to make amends, his past always seems to be catching up with him. As he grows older, he realizes that he needs to stop robbing. His wife has asked him nicely and convinces him that an easier more simpler, and legal, life would be healthier for the children and their marriage. He agrees but can’t help to be pulled back into criminality, and this time by his own son. Jake is satisfied morally and ethically by his criminality because his philanthropy. Jake grows more and more moral in his behavior, almost to an obsessive point when he takes it upon himself to sustain a long crusade for one man’s innocence and to out a corrupted Garda Inspector. He also wants to make certain to keep eyes behind his head for old partners that he double crossed in his days of heavy inebriation.

Darren C. Sullivan is currently drafting The Power of Darkness.

During the darkest days of The Salem Witch Trials, a corrupt Governor made a pact with a demon-witch to live on forever. They set out to promote the grave injustice of accusing innocent people within the village of Salem, Massachusetts of witchcraft. Unbeknownst to the demon-witch and the Governor, one of the sacrificed women actually practiced the dark arts and her existence lives on forever as well, creating a never-ending cycle of cursed generations, forever combative,  when two once-in-a-century comets cross paths. The most recent generation is a family full of Classical Russian Literature fan boys that are about to have their masculinity tested by a villainous duo : a witch and her son. The witch’s son uses his mother’s powers to become the leading mobster in Los Angeles. The accidental death of his brother leads the witch’s son right back to where it all started with The Salem Witch Trials. The curse has become a one in a hundred year war between two bloodlines that stem back to 17th century Salem, Ma. The comets create the energy flow that trigger the bloodlines to fight once every one hundred years, as that is their orbit.
