A Terrifying Glimpse of Our Possible Future

Hello and thanks for visiting. It's been quite some time since I posted here, but having recently finished my graphic novel series Mary Morgan's Journal, I've decided to share it here in serialized form. Before going on, please understand that these books are political satire set in a dystopian near-future that is based on current events. If you are a fan of the current U.S. regime, you are not likely to be a fan of this series. 

Before beginning, a little background on why I wrote and illustrated these books. I've had a lifelong passion for writing, have written a few books previously, and have developed a  somewhat insane obsession for Photoshop. Bringing these two passions together was all I needed to create what I believe is an altogether new graphic novel format. Keep in mind the format and I are both still progressing.

As for the story, it came from my solemn belief that we are worse off as a nation now than we were four years ago. I am a veteran of the United States Army, a female tradesperson (a licensed electrician and home remodeler), and gay. I believe in kindness, that science is real, and that no human being is the property of another. As a thinking person, I have far more beliefs than these, but they're made obvious in my books.

The following copyrighted pages come directly from The Cautioner's Tale, Mary Morgan's Journal Book 1. It is available on Amazon in ebook and paperback edtions. It is also a part of the Mary Morgan's Journal Boxed Set which includes all four books of the series.









 

I'll post more tomorrow or the next day, or maybe the day after. This is a strong argument for your subscribing to my blog. 

Thanks 

P.S. I promise to update my blog links soon. In the meantime, try visiting my website. It's awesome!

An Extreme and Absolute Time-Sucker

Hello, and thanks for joining me. I hope you've come to help because I'm in the absolute thick of it!  I've recently been working on the final edits for The Cautioner's Tale , the first book in my Mary Morgan's Journal trilogy. I was fortunate enough to have several wonderfully helpful beta readers give it a test read a few months ago, and I've since incorporated their suggestions along with the notes I made on both the story and the drawings. I think I've mentioned in a previous post that this is the first book I've created that's fully illustrated, sort of graphic-novelly, but...not. I don't use the "panels" you see in graphic novels and comic books. Instead, I use various methods and media to help get my ideas across. Weird, I know, but it's fun and interesting. But it's also an extreme and absolute time-sucker! That's where you come in... Below, I've posted the first four pages of The Cautioner'

Calling All Cover Lovers!

Hello, and thanks for visiting. Today, I'm asking for a little more help on The Cautioner's Tale . With launch day just over a month away and advance review copies being downloaded as we speak ( http://eepurl.com/c4dJ8H ), I'm very close to wrapping up work here. But, there's one last thing...well, two, actually...that I would appreciate some opinions on. Both have to do with my back cover: 1. What do you think of the blurb? 2. What's your opinion of the artwork? I'm open to any and all suggestions on both, and greatly appreciate your help.   Also, I've been floating the front cover around for several weeks now, but if you haven't had an opportunity for a closer look (as well as to voice your opinions & suggestions), then this is it: Please don't forget there's still time to receive your Advance Review Copy of The Cautioner's Tale . If you'd like to sign up for a free download, here's the link again:  http://eepurl.
