Tomorrow, I enter the finals leg of this manuscript. The final head, I should say. This conclusion will be cold as the world freezes over. War will be waged. Tempers will collide…and there will be dragons on this desolate tundra.

Okay … you’ll all be relieved to know that BOTH of my parents have now read my later-stages manuscript of my graphic novel and both like it … so I am F*^#>N relieved as they both feature heavily in the story itself. So it’s BEER TIME!

It's done! After almost 2 years of writing, my first rough draft of my manuscript is finally finished. I told myself my deadline was New Year but I have 4 days to go.

Gonna use that time to clean a bit and relax.

To judge from some medieval manuscripts, it seems that whenever a knight was not busy rescuing maidens, he liked to hone his fighting skills by attacking snails. Seems fair enough, both have body armour

Tomorrow, I embark on the back half of a manuscript I put down for a little while. I’m really looking forward to pick the story back up. Gone are the dragons of the first half (for now) and in is a land fueled by frost, mist, and the blood of war.
