Announcing the first book in my Chained Sky series, Violet Eyes! An incomprehensible girl, an ashen man and a sassy goldfish stumble through the stories of a broken world.

Gitty is the main character in Paw'Lit's. She's a spicy little firecracker... Yeah let's go with that.

The above designs are a bit out of date. She's less of a fashionista and more of a rambunctious punk. Sure, she likes fashion, but she needed a hoodie and emphasis on her casual, athletic nature. Here are some WIP sketches based on that.

Want to know what she's like? Here's a sample of the pilot script.

And lastly, here's what she looked like when I was just going to do a webcomic. Ultimately I decided to go for animation using hybrid 2D and 3D.

I'm developing an animated series pilot. Here's a drawing incorporating the main cast. Gitty and Moka chasing Senfen.

Nea Paw'Lit and Sir Pawfi are enjoying a break, sitting back and watching them play.

We're still early in development, having completed the script, done test recordings and are currently in the storyboarding phase. In the spring I'll be working on asset development.

The series does have a website if you'd like to check it out.

Have the courage to encourage

Life is a story and each of us lives our own. But it's not just about being the main character. Consider what role you play for others. There's so much we can do as protagonists and supporting cast.

All too often I see others crippled by their lack of confidence, too afraid of failure to even take the first steps on their journey.

Surround yourself with those that want to push forward. There's no reason to go alone, and there's no better motivation than mutual encouragement.
