Hello! *phew* My bad for not blogging in a few weeks! My laptop died and I had to wait a bit before I could replace it. I have a nifty little tablet now, which I'm still trying to get used to. It's only seven inches big, so seeing things on-line is hard. *laughs* But I love it! Been busy catching up with everything, since.
So, how was the New Year for all of you? I completely forgot about the countdown, (I was busy playing Zelda for, like, six hours), until my mum woke up, she had a bad case of the flu, and reminded me. I love opening the patio door and listening to the city as everyone makes noise at midnight. It's such an awesome sound!
Anyway, this little lady here I finally finished! I had to stitch some of the art together in an art program because it was much too large for the scanner, but I still did not yet quite fit all of the drawing in the frame. She is going to be included in my book, though, she won't show up until the very end of the series.
As for the book, I am about midway through now and I'm guess that the first draft will work out to be around 90,000 words. It's very hard not to edit as I write the rough draft, but I have to keep reminding myself to think of it as a rough sketch to stop myself. *laughs* What I'm enjoying most out of the writing, seeing the characters come to life on the page! I'm still in awe of them taking over my brain.
Well, my lovelies, I hope you all are having a wonderful week. And I wish an early spring thaw for those of you going through the terrible winter storms. Cheers!
