I finally did it! My "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" Albatross pendant.
Initial sculpt is done. Once this sets up, it'll be time for all the minute details before priming.

Where can I get a "On your Marx, get set, Zo!" t-shirt?
I'll also settle for a copy of the front page if anyone has some floating around.

But as a preview, I'll say that my favorite character in the new book so far is Hannalore. The fae queen of a decaying swamp who comes to know a little girl who brings her goldfish....
...stay tuned! Maybe I'll do a cover reveal!

#OctoberWorldbuilders Day 30: The sequel to The Way By comes out next year! It's an anthology of short stories taking place in the same world. It will act as a bridge between The Way By and the third book, Wayward.
So, I've gotten to create many characters recently!

Heroes don't necessarily have to be unreachable ideals. And villains aren't always inherently evil. It's about the choices they made, or that others made for them, and the consequences of those choices. That's what makes up the cosmos of The Way By, as wonderful or as terrible as we make it.

#OctoberWorldbuilders Day 28: What I think is special about the world of The Way By is that anyone and everyone is a part of it. Because it's about all the mundane things that are actually extraordinary. It's about the worlds we build for ourselves each and every day.

Conversely, the villain; an evil unicorn called Clarisant, is typically naked while in human form.
This was also intentional on my part, because she wears the wounds of her past as literal garments. She dares anyone to look at her and see the blood and bruises.
