The fate of Heaven and Earth is thrust upon Lucifer and Carnaval. Against time and odds, the lovers must save their Family, but how do you change the mind of the Lord our God?

‘I am so disappointed in you. I wish I had never created you.’ JEHOVAH.

Being the oldest child is never easy. Especially for Lucifer, who seems to have everything:

• He has a precocious chonky cat named Nibbles.

• He is dating Carnaval, the most beloved Angel in Heaven.

• He is smart.

• He is good looking.

• He has a magnificent suit of armor.

• He is the leader of the Archangels, guardians of all in Heaven.

Yet it is never enough for FATHER.

Someone is to blame, as the sins of a few, seals the fate of all Angels.

I've written the PILOT and ENTIRE FIRST SEASON of an Adventure/Drama TV series, adapted from my novel, which is in formatting at DREAMING BIG PUBLISHING. The series is based upon characters known in nearly every household around the world; this Series has unlimited marketing potential. 12 Seconds Short of Eternity is in the vein of streaming series like "Game of Thrones” and “American Gods" but lighter, with relatable relationships and family interactions that are more inclusive.

In the pilot, the center of Lucifer’s heart is his family, the Angels. A battered Raphael crashes a picnic, seeking help against a monstrosity, headed towards the Angel’s homestead. Lucifer leads the handful of revelers against their sister Behemoth, but they are overpowered. At the last moment, the cavalry arrives, God. Lucifer learns after the battle that God is disappointed with the lives of the Angels. Because of their Divine Powers, they have everything they desire and that invites Greed, Sloth, Bias, etc., into their lives. God is NOT gifting Earth to the Angels as he had promised but rather has decided to created humans, who will not have any Divine Ability. He believes the fragile condition of humankind will make it a more appreciative caretaker of his blue jewel. That night, at an evening of gambling and wine, the Angel’s conversations turn to God’s betrayal. Lucifer is put to task with finding a way to save both the Angels and Humankind.

The fantastical premise is character driven with strong female leads, plus the multiracial and LGBTQ characters will appeal to a very wide audience. The Series timeline starts on the 5th Day of Creation but by the end of the first season moves to 2021. Season 2 will see the addition of Hal Breed Angels keyed towards a more youthful audience, i.e. gamers, influencers, travelers, etc. Please, take a moment to read the PILOT or entire FIRST SEASON ( 8 EPISODES ). This has unlimited potential.

TV Series Pilot Logline: A family picnic in Heaven is interrupted as Angels are thrust into a battle for their very lives. Led by Lucifer and his lover Carnaval, a desperate stand is taken against their monstrous sister Behemoth.

GOD DECREES: “I did not give you wings so you would nest.”
