This post was inspired on a message sent to one of my favourite writers today... with some minor changes, not to disclose who that is... =)

"Authors,

I believe that what you are writing in your stories is poetry, something so beautiful that touches the reader's soul when you read it, the afterward... after you become so close to someone with words, while so far away physically... You make something change at the seems... I consider you a gift. The gift to all of us readers... To all of us wanna be writers... Mostly because your writing shows the world, who you are on the inside, and it's an honor to know you the way I do.

Thank you for changing me."

It's been a long time, since my last post for many reasons, here is the download update:

1 - Finished my first novel, and found a uber-talented editor to work on it.

2 - I'm 120 pages into writing the second book.

3 - I've been working long hours doing the closing of the season for Stone Arch.

The big HUGE news are. At SAB they decided to do this project that needed a turn around in 1 month and half. The author. Erik Stevens (aka Steve Brezenoff's alter ego, wrote the brilliant story in 2.5 weeks. Beth edited in a flash ! She is a ridiculously talented. Beth and I mapped the book, and i took the chance and illustrated it. My creative Director Heather Kinseth liked the style, and we run crazy with it. I illustrated the whole book in 3 days of LONG LONG HOURS. Then scanned for hours, cleaned up images, and start designing! Took me another 3 days to put the whole puzzle together. It's by far one of the most challenging projects I've ever had to deal with for many reasons. One of them being, dealing my with own fears, working on my illustrating skills that were rusty... Took me 2 days to be comfortable using a pencil!  Sad, oh so Sad! But well worth it!! It was an amazing experience! The team effort was fabulous!!

Here it's!!
