With the new school year in full swing, I am just getting back into my writing.  The kids are off learning so I get the house to myself for part of the day.  I had a few opportunities to make some more “I Otter Be” illustrations.  In fact, I just posted a new one for the coming zombie apocalypse.  You can check it out here.

The writing is taking a little longer.  If you’re an active reader of my posts, you may remember me writing about The Ruby’s Cell.  This young adult adventure has been developing over the past year.  A blacksmith is sent on a quest to dispose of a demon and solicits the help of some interesting characters.

There are some days that I just write away and get lost in the story, and other days I stare at the computer and only make a dent in my coffee.  Right now I and working on another action scene and making it connect with some foreshadowing that occurred in an earlier chapter.  It is getting quite lengthy for my target audience and I may have to make it into two volumes if it can’t be condensed.  Time will tell with that process.

So when I am not shuttling around my kids, doing household chores, or helping my aging parents, I enjoy writing and illustrating for my fans.
