    The way the deer held his head aloft as he drew nearer gave her the impression of nobility; his head was crowned with perfect antlers and he seemed to have knowing, black eyes.

    Hello Readers!

    We now have one week of the funding period in the bag and ended with 12 pre-orders!  That’s a pretty good head start but I want to keep the ball rolling.  I’ll be attending DragonCon in Atlanta this weekend and it would be fantastic if I could roll in with 25 pre-orders in the bag.  That would put us at 10% of the pre-order goal in just 2 weeks!  Please keep sharing and passing along the project to friends and family that could be interested in Of Wood and Stone.

    By now I hope everyone has had a chance to read over chapter 2.  The scene with the Hedgehogs is possibly my favorite so far (Personally I imagine them with Monty Python in drag accents).  To keep the good times going, I’ll post more character concept art on Wednesday and chapter 3 of the book on Friday while I’m at the convention.  

    Thank you so much for reading!

      Greetings my favorite people! 

      Ever since I decided I wanted to create some sort of young adult fantasy novel like the ones I enjoyed as a ten year old (a la The Chronicles of Narnia, Hobbit, etc.) I wanted to incorporate some sort of illustrations into the work.  Today I posted the first of several sketches my wife Sylvia created for Of Wood and Stone.  It’s a sketch of Eliza in her fuzzy winter hat and holding her slingshot.  I’ve got a few more in the pipeline so I hope you all enjoy them!

      Thank you for reading!

          More than once she had to chase off the occasional goat who tried to make a snack out of her make-shift targets.
