We’re rapidly reaching the conclusion of this vignette. Chapter 11 is on the horizon. We’ll be meeting several new characters in Chapter 11. See one of them for yourself when you vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.

May 15th, 2015This week’s Almanac entry is Sings-to-Moon, the wolf manitou. It’s been a long day of water sealing the deck so short entry today. Have a great weekend all!
A Berry from the Sun Page 8

A Berry from the Sun Page 7
May 10th, 2015Sings-to-Moon lures the firebird into the caves on Page 7 of A Berry from the Sun. You may have recognized Cape Adamant in this story. Or Cap Diamant, as it’s called in the real world. You might also know that there aren’t any caves in the cape. Again, you would be correct. That’s one of the reasons I went with fantasy. So there could be caves under that rock. To see a glimpse of what happens next, please vote for Snow by Night on Top Web Comics.
A Berry from the Sun Page 6

The second is Creative Collaborations, where we discussing working with other artists on a project. It’s trickier than you might think. The schedule for panels will be going up soon.
Almanac – Wakes-with-a-Roar
May 7th, 2015The discussion of manitou continues in this week’s Almanac with Wakes-with-a-Roar. This mighty bear spirit is a fierce protector. Unfortunately, she is not a match for the firebird at its place of power.
I finished up the script for Chapter 11 today. Whew, this was a rough one. I’m really late with it, and I think Julie might be about to crown me. But in Chapter 11 we pick up Blaise’s story among the Liranequois. Or will it be the Liranequois’ story that Blaise has wandered into. Either way, it’s a different culture with a lot of new characters. I wanted to make sure I did the research to do it properly.
