Shuffled, Hoc bk2 update

We've finished the 2nd draft and are working on the 3rd.

So far, we have over 50 chapters! We're going to be doing a lot of editing. Mom usually likes to stick to thirty chapters or so. This way, the story is full but the readers won't have to feel like they're wading through fluff.

It's part of the challenge the book presents. This magical world is enormous! And even the small things tend to have a story behind them. I actually like all the learning that's done in the SKS classes, I find it fascinating. But, still, we might have to cut some of these classes because it's not important enough to the story.
It's possible we'll post them here. But we'll see.

Shuffled-Front Cover


Well,

Here's the front cover of book 2!

This is a scene that will be happening in the book. 

I'm very excited about the armor, like I told you. I've always been fascinated with armor and I've wanted a suit of it for as long as I can remember. :) In any case, I helped with the concept for the special armor that Sarah's wearing.
Our artist is very good at drawing armor, as you can see. I love the reflected light and all the fine detail that I had him put on it. 
The armor is important and necessary for the mask that's in that tank. It's something you'd rather not mess with.

We need to figure out the blurb on the back of the book. Once the book is closer to completion, then we'll have a better idea about what to say.

Enjoy!

HoC Bk2 - Shuffed Update

Hello Everyone!

Just to let you know, we're still in the editing process. We have several more rounds to go. So far, bk2 has 500+ pages but it is in the early stages. We have some exciting scenes coming up and a tad more action! ;)

I've hurt my wrist so, I can't do much drawing at the moment. I'll hopefully get that fixed soon. Can't wait to get back to the sketches.

Also, to alert you, we have some big stuff going on here at home. So, don't expect much during the month of September. Hopefully, you'll get more fun stuff to look at in October!
