Ep. 2 keeps glitching and hates me, so I gave up and skipped. Ah well. I'll come back. Cool! Looking forward to seeing them! Oh yes! Pity I don't think I'd get away with an outright paint canvas.

Ta da! On this page there are tutorials on basic drawing, digital painting, assembling a comic page, expressions and construction drawing! (Also if you haven’t read Lackadaisy, I fully recommend it. Prohibition era, 1920’s styled, rumrunning gangster cats? There’s literally nothing better on the internet) lackadaisy.foxprints.com/ishkabibble.php
Aw, that’s a shame. About both tv show and paint canvas.
Also, today on “Dingo Writes A Book”, I may have figured out how to solve a plot problem, but it means editing and possibly rewriting the last five chapters, but whatever. It’ll probably be better this way.

I need to check it out. ^^ AND THANK YOU! Yep, yep. I'll figure something out for the first and for the second I'll wait till art class. Oooo! Hope it works out!

Lackadaisy is glorious. And you’re welcome! Enjoy the tutorials!
You’ll work it out
I hope so! It’ll take some reshaping, but I’ll get there! It shall be dramatic and bloody and glorious. And this way, Snakeeyes’ history lesson makes much more sense - every now and again I remember that Rook was only six years old when he was abducted, so he has zero education, and zero knowledge of his own history/heritage

I'm good with two out of three. o.o I worry about 'bloody'. Oooo! But that sounds cool!

Well, The death toll is climbing, but hopefully the rest of it isn’t too bad. Brennan/Pikekit does a wicked scar, though. Everything Rook knows about history comes from Snakeeyes, but the snake as a super skewed understanding of events anyway (they come from entirely different parts of the country/have conflicting cultures so interactions between them are always interesting)
Also Rook needs to stop making out with people in front of the dude who’s got a massive crush on him. The boy is so naive. He doesn’t understand that Feelings™️ exist

Oh my. XD That's going to be interesting. And I still love and adore Snakeeyes.

Post by Dingoleap on Oct 30, 2018 19:08:25 GMT -5
It shall be interesting indeed! The boy does work it out eventually - in the meantime, Brennan just stands there awkwardly and wishes Rook would make out with him instead.
Snakeeyes is a good dude. Emotionally lacking, but a good dude.

Do you remember me talking about a ‘love dodecahedron’ a while back? Yeah, well this is it coming into play.
At some point I decided (apparently) or perhaps the book decided (more likely) that Rook x Brennan was the endgame, but there’s a lot of confusion before we get there. Bren just happens to be in love with the most emotionally clueless person in the world. Rook, in the meantime, hasn’t even worked out that he goes both ways yet. (At the moment, he’s in an “this person is showing me affection therefore I must hyperfixiate on them” situation. He’ll work it out eventually, but he has to learn how to properly emote first)
In the background, Brennan and Bryony/Ravenkit spend a lot of time in each other’s company. They’re good mystery-solving friends. Society, however, expects them to get together. They’re a good match, politically and socially, after all. Bryony has a rather “jokes on you, he’s pining for my brother” reaction to this.
Hmm, I think I’m going to have to draw up a family/relationship tree or chart type thing. Gotta keep this all together somehow...

Im awfully sorry that things have been slow lately. I lost my job this week - the head office decided to close my cafe down (I guess that’s what happens when you work for a chain) with no notice, effective immediately, so finding another job has been my main priority the past few days :/

It's currently in progress! I'm working on an illustrated family tree for Return to Dust, and ill whip something up for Corvidae. It's super fun to work on, actually.

Heh heh! Yesterday was so good for writing for me. I'm actually really pleased with how the Will C. Morgen Project series is going. I'm actually starting to feel confident enough to get some of those rejection letters from publishers (ha ha). o3o I'm pretty close to having a proper and finished draft of Will to Live and Last Will and Testament is progressing pretty well!

How many books are you planning for the series in total?

That sucks! It's really annoying that the government/head offices can just shut down a good place. It sounded like you were really busy there. Hope you can find another job soon. I've started volunteering at a local Neighbourhood Centre through Work For The Dole. It's Admin, but I'm actually really enjoying it. They do really awesome things here for homeless people and people struggling to live. They cook meals every fortnight and then freeze them so Homeless people have something to eat overnight. We also have free showers and tea/coffee facilities. This is giving me experience so it will hopefully be easier to get into a Library job.

Seven plus two to three prequel stories. I think it'll be a duology and a stand-alone (perhaps stand-alone short story collection). And that'll be it. ^^

Oh, that’s cool! You always meet really cool people through volunteer work. It sounds like you’re doing really good work there! Hopefully! Fingers crossed!

IM SO HAPPY I’ve only been unemployed for about a week, and it’s already driving me mad, so I’m excited to start at a new place on Monday.
And then I spent an unreasonable amount of time planning the first interaction between Rook and the Ghost - whom none of you have met yet, but I’m excited to introduce you to - and am excited for tension
