Hi Cathy,

I do love that picture of the bucket and the “mind editor”.  Wish my printer worked and I would do exactly what @rose-colored-fancy wants to do.

I minored in art and design in college, but I have not drawn any of my WIP characters.  I did collect some concept photos for Maeven and young Miray, but they were swallowed up and lost when the “Completely Useless Character Game” feed dropped and banished them to electronic oblivion.  I wish I could find the guesses that were made there because they were inciteful. [Sighs]
Sometime, perhaps, if I have a braver moment, I may share some of my cartoon art.  They are not connected to current writing.  Just experimenting.  I did write a home-made comic book series in high school, and most of my larger works (paintings, charcoals, colored pencil, chalks, ink & quills, etc.) are back at my parents’ home…somewhere.

My Art professor had suggested I make a slide portfolio of my work (this was before i-Phones, etc.) so I have a set of slides, but no way to project them or get them into an e-file unless I sent them out to Legacy Box or something.  (Hardly seems worth it.) I have some drawings in there of a Leviathan that was in my early Sci-Fi novel but could pass for the one that will show up in book 3 of my current series.

Still looking forward to when you get your new laptop and can put a piece out in the Audio Cinema.
I need to do the questions for Rose’s latest entry.  I do love the interplay of characters she has there.  It is hard for me to pivot from one character to the next as she does so fluidly.

I really am learning from you guys.  I have read many books and listened to countless advice videos for writers, but there is something more powerful about witnessing the exchange of ideas and the shared working-through of plot, character, and worldbuilding issues that is more fascinating to me.
I admire the way you all are so supporting and encouraging.  I love that you guys challenge us to be better than we started.
