Read chapter 20 with greenlydia I’ve been staring at a blank page for half an hour now, I think I’ve lost my drawing mojo, usually it comes so naturally and I catch myself doodling on anything and everything I can find but today, today is not that kind of day. I sigh and put […]

Read chapter 16 with greenlydia To: Iris From: Winter Attached: revised – feathers and fur RE: Oops, wine Agreed, there should be a lock application on all forms of communications that doesn’t let you on when you’re intoxicated.

read chapter 14 over on greenlydia The weather is colder today than it has been lately, apparently there’s snow on the mountains at the moment which would account for the bite in the air, so I bundle up warm and don one of the many beanies hanging at my front door.

Read chapter 12 here – greenlydia I sigh as I light candles around the house. Power outage. Great, because drawing in the dark is so easy. I feel like such a failure, perhaps defeated is a better description. I feel defeated. Just when I think things are finally going my way shit like this […]

You can read chapter 10 here – greenlydia I ‘m not getting out of bed today. My toes are cold, my nose is snotty and I feel about as happy as that depressed duck I’ve been working on the past few days. I don’t like today, I’m going to back to sleep. I’ll try this […]
