No. It's not completed. ;) But here are some visualizations that I've done to help motivate myself. I have been working hard at turning my boxes of notes (written on note cards, napkins and crumpled notebook pages) into one notebook of thoughts on the subject.

I have a fantastically talented graphic design friend who has generously offered to do a better job (I don't like how my name is so huge, but balance-wise it was my only solution- and it needs color: his sneakers, for example, should be green), but here is my simple visualization of my book cover:

I am terrible with the technologies and couldn't get the scanner to work for either of these two leading ladies, so I must apologize for the picture quality. My bad. I'm still excited, though!
I am actually going to write a scene tonight! It's going to happen. Unless I go into labor. That's slightly more important. But even so, it's going to happen soon!
I'm legitimately excited about this project for the first time in nearly a year. Woohoooo! I hope your creative endeavors are going swimmingly!
Roll for initiative,
J. Wahl
