New Writer Inside!: Tom Durham

(We are Geek Goes Rogue try to bring you the most entertaining, and frankly hottest writers around. I mean, look at our Founder’s St. Louis Cardinals sock hat. Hawt. Anyway, we’re not sure if Tom qualifies as “hawt” (apparently his wife thinks so), but he is an amazing filmmaker, writer and geek. So, he seemed like a natural fit. Enjoy his writing. We sure do) 

Tom Durham is a writer, filmmaker, Emmy nominated producer, family guy, idealist, and advocate for underdog creatives. He loves brainwashing his kids with Tolkien, Star Trek, and Narnia.

His award-winning, time-bending sci-fi feature film 95ers is in international distribution, and is due for release in the United States in April 2014. He has created many other universes—sci-fi, fantasy, and steampunk, and is nearing completion of his YA fantasy novel, The Return of Magic.

Tom’s is an ongoing and epic struggle to conquer the mundane, and help unite mighty new creators with their audiences.  There are titans among us, bearing the weight of our civilization on their noble shoulders.  Who are they?  Idealistic youngsters and mommies and daddies with no money and no connections—who can still change the world with their hard-won dreams and stories. You may see Tom spouting this nonsense at various sci-fi and fantasy cons.  Fans arise!  Become patrons or all is lost!
