It wasn't long after the creation of this character that I realized who he was, and what he meant...
His appearance signified the roots of a story-line.
I took out a page of scrap paper and began jotting down brainstorming ideas... how this character connected to the artwork I had previously created, how he could connect to other characters in my world.
In late March/Early April of 2012 I thought to myself; Maybe I should actually sit down and try my hand at writing this tale that kept evolving in my head...
and so I sat down and began writing a scene simply titled "The Path from the Palace"
It was a scene that I knew was somewhere in the middle of my story, but I knew if I could somehow write this scene, I could gauge whether or not I could actually write the story.
That particular piece of writing was handed off to a few choice readers, and they both responded positively, so I decided that I would embark on the journey of actually telling this story...
Its been an uphill journey for me, but I am excited to say that after all this time I have finished working on the first installment of this series called The Timeless Tides.
