    Update on "Sigil of Souls" (8/6/2023)

    This latest chapter is supposed to be the "biggest" one so far in the story and will resolve about roughly half of the outstanding mysteries, and as such it is growing physically bigger by the minute. I don't really relish the idea of another "Part I", "Part II", etc., so even though this one is mostly one very long continuous scene I'm thinking about still breaking it up into separate chapters.

    Broke the Top 100

    As of today, "Sigil of Souls: Stream of Memories" is now the 99th longest story on the entire site.

    ...Kind of crazy to realize there's 98 stories even longer than mine, long-winded as I am, but at least I cracked the top 100.

    Update on Sigil of Souls

    Sorry the next chapter is taking so long. It's one of two of the final action sequences of "Daybreak" and so it's quite large, and will probably end up being at least two chapters.

    Thanks everyone who's stuck with the story.

Know Any Good Artists? · 7:45pm Aug 21st, 2013

Well, the public domain images were ok for starters...but now I'd like to get some real illustrations for my stuff. Anyone know a person who does that sort of thing and is looking for someone to pay for commissions?

I've been looking for art too. Tell me if you find anyone who does free stuff.

Mmmm, I might be able to sketch up something.

...don't expect too much, I'm awful.

I make pencil sketches of varying brightness levels. I only add color (with GIMP, which I still don't really understand) when I feel really motivated, and that usually is never.

Masters of the Enemy and FiO: Fifteen Galaxies Out are both hand drawn cover art of mine.

I'm willing to pay. Artists need support. (Heck, I wish people would pay ME to write this stuff, after all...) However, I would prefer, ideally, if the artists liked the story or, at minimum, read it on their own rather than just wanting me to try and sum it up. I reason good art is like good baking. You can't just make the exterior "look good" and conform to some requirements...you need to bring out the inner essence. Like...I could describe Empress Wormwood in detail to someone, but I'd prefer if they knew what was running around in her head as she stands there looking deadly and malevolent.
