SOMETHING CALLED THE “BLUE JUICE” IS COMING. FOR ALL OF US. Luckily, me (Chip Collins), Pete, Nikola Tesla, Bobo, and FBI Agent Gina Phillips are here to kick its a**, and send it back to last Tuesday. Maybe. Or maybe we’ll fail. We’ll see.
Author of Billy Bobble Makes A Magic Wand and numerous short stories, R.S. Mellette also wrote “The Xena Scrolls” for Universal’s web site for Xena: Warrior Princess. An episode of the same name became the 1st web-to-TV intellectual property.

I’m very sorry to hear that, and I can only offer my deepest condolences to his friends and family.
Upon seeing his name here, I realise I’ve heard of him (good things only) but I’ve never actually read his work. I’ll find something of his today and read it–that’s a promise. Any recommendations?
