Inspired by his desire to create a company to represent his works, Thomas DePauw took it upon himself to create these studios and set out on his work. Although going through many disappointments and failures, some of which you'll find in the "Old Footage" section, he has kept true to his work and now has finally released this website along with establishing the company name, therefore giving birth to his official company. About the Founder: Thomas Joseph DePauw was born in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Thomas began writing at the early age of five, improving and experimenting with many different techniques of the art. His musical pursuits began six years later, gaining talent and learning to play the piano through self-teaching. Thomas put his writing skills to the test when he began writing the "Avenger" series (Not published), which was also his first series. Since those days he has improved and moved in writing, although planning a remake of that series after he has finished "Awakening Evil." Currently he is writing a new book (Awakening Evil, Beginnings) that he intends to publish when finished (a release date on this is still unknown) and is hoping to finish his classical album soon. A Writer and a Musician: The Driving Force: "Some people wonder and ask me "Why are you a writer and a musician?" The reason behind my duo of workings is because of two main reasons: I believe music and literature are necessary in our everyday lives, and I also find that music and reading/writing go well together, like berries and cream. Reading or writing stimulates the imagination, taking you to places unexplored or unheard of, also bringing out profound joy or itching anticipation. Music develops those ideas, and gives you a better grasp of the emotion or the setting of the story; there are many times when I find myself reading/writing as I listen to music. After continuing this activity for more than ten minutes, I find that it is very difficult to stop writing/reading. Therefore, I believe that music is just as important as writing or more so. Without music to inspire me, it is very difficult and sometimes even impossible to continue working. Which is why I also create music as well as write. I hope that you, the reader, contribute by listening to good music and by reading good literature, learning from it and using your knowledge for good purposes." -Thomas DePauw.
