Introducing....

My book!

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 had forgotten how much I liked my characters and how hard I've worked on the plot!  I had even forgotten about these sketches!  I'm smert not stoopid.

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:
And here is a sketch of the lovely and tricksy vampire, Bell:



And Michael's dream girl, Charlotte:


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

If you haven't yet, please 'like' me on facebook!  I always read requests for likes or follows in Bill Murray's voice: "Gimme, gimme, I need, I need, I need!"  Oh well.
