Some panel redraws of The Recruit! This comic ended a few years ago but it is still dear to my heart.

I’ve got...a lot of little WIPs I sometimes leave for years and come back to, plus the usual “I have a new idea and it’s consuming my entire soul--nevermind I’m done with that, onto the next idea;” but the major ones:

Beg, Borrow or Steal

Status: 1st Draft for the 3rd-ish time | Page Count: 100+ pages (spread across multiple documents, some lost...) | Genre:  Historical Fiction, Mystery, Crime, Dark Comedy

After a séance goes sideways, flapper and medium Amelia Rackham goes on the hunt to find out who would hire a hitman to kill her, how to duck further attempts on her life, and most importantly, how she’s going to get revenge.  Potentially a future webcomic.

Sun Down (formerly All Quiet)

Status: 1st Draft | Page Count: 80-ish pages | Genre:  Historical Fiction, Fanfiction

Gilbert Beilschmidt has been a soldier all his life; he knows war.  Humans are too quick to panic and other Immortals get sucked into the drama.  He knows better.  This “War to End All Wars” can’t possibly be what everyone else says it is.

Brother, Can You Spare a Dime

Status: 1st Draft | Page Count: 50-ish pages | Genre:  Historical Fiction, Fanfiction, Romance

A Soviet government official (well...sort of) finds a very lost American (well...sort of) living covertly in the Soviet Union.  He takes the man captive as a spy (well...sort of), intending to keep him under lock and key until it’s safe to deport him.  Instead the two find each other to be the only people they can trust in 1930′s Moscow.

The Ballad of Josie Sweetwater

Status: Rough Draft | Page Count Stats in General:  ~15-20 pages of notes, plot, and characters; several character, setting, & object icons; two rough Twine games (one lost to a crash; final game engine not decided) | Genre:  Southern Gothic Horror, Fantasy

A young witch with a mysterious family history tries to find their way in a cruel and treacherous world of magic, gods, secrets, and music beyond mortal ken.  Between the swamp where they were born and the crime-ridden, jazz-filled city they run to, Josie meets ghosts, monsters, and hard questions about who they really are.  Intended to be a video game.

Rainstone

Status: 1st Draft | Page Count: 15-20-ish | Genre:  Fantasy, Western I guess?

After a band of thieves and murderers devastates her family, Nela finds herself touched by magic and with the power to control water.  Determined to track down what’s left of her family, she embarks on a difficult and dangerous journey across the desert, into places never intended for humans, and facing truths as devastating as a flood.

Stormrunner

Status:  Rough Draft | Page Count:  10-ish | Genre:  Fantasy, Fanfiction

Aging skypirate Arthur Kirkland can keep one step ahead of the law, but eventually he’s going to have to face the past he’s been running from--and the son he abandoned.  Comic strip.
