Hello, my name is Ian Newbold and I am a storyteller not an Artist. I write for my own pleasure and not for commercial purposes.

For more than fifty years I have been creating my own alternative universe and the characters who live there. Not too imaginatively that alternative universe is called the Newbold World Universe and it centres around the Skoog Astral Plane.

I cannot draw at all but I enjoy looking at artwork of all kinds. And I like to commission new artwork or purchase existing artwork to help bring my stories to life. I visit deviantart to see all the super artwork on display here and to meet some of the super folk who created it.
