ellenmillionYesterday was an unexpected weekend day, because Jake's calendar said so.
Woe! < /sarcasm >
Productive weekend, if not a lot to show for it - lots of little repairs... we installed a light above the kitchen counter, I fixed the handle on the chest freezer and re-repaired the KitchenAid. Much cleaning, good food, and a long walk for me and Norway. It's colder today - under zero! - so there's a cheerful woodfire in the stove.
I left Rails alone all weekend, though I moped about it whenever I remembered it, and opened it with trepidation again this morning... to find that it's not at ALL as bad as I'd built it up to be in my head. I made a few cosmetic changes, tweaked a few conversations just a little, and decided it worked. Is it perfect? No. But I don't think I got far from the mark I was aiming at, and it's engaging. It's totally set up for a sequel or two, it ties up just exactly what it HAS to, and I think it does the characters justice. Done! Just need to ebook it up and think about Kickstarting a print copy. The next section is up to the public in Railbrakes.
Muse Fusion is this weekend, Sketch Fest is next weekend!
Have some art and photos:
10 months! (and a few days)
And, artwork!

The illustration board on this one did not hold up well. It is currently up for auction on Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151360685470100 Most recent bid is $13 (+shipping)
These two ACEO acrylic paintings are a set: Water - Laminar and Water - Turbulent. $25 for the set includes shipping.
