creative morning

I’ve been working all morning on my graphic novel (I have to laugh a little every time I say that, because of course it is never actually going to be a graphic novel unless some artist comes along to save me). It is a great feeling, though I feel like I have little to show for hours of thought and plotting. The big news is that my main character has, at long last, acquired a name. Also, some bits of the story that have been troublesome and vague up to this point are finally starting to take shape. Maybe this will actually turn into something someday. This is the most positive feeling I’ve had about it up to this point. It’s encouraging.

I hope to have scans of my sad little drawings of the main characters soon. Perhaps I can bring myself to share. We shall see.

    Wahoo! Thanks for the lovely evening….and even Dad had fun! It was fun to play with all of you. It seems a long time since we’ve had a play date. I read when I got home that I just had to limit my alcohol. I could have had a bit of the French wine. Oh, well. Glad your creativity is setting in. We all need creative moments to keep happy. Will touch base tomorrow.
    xoxo
