Working on Progress
WIP: DARKNESS BRUTAL
Word Count: 25,500
TEASE: Sixteen-year-old Aidan can see demons, smell emotions, and feel the past in his skin, but will it be enough to save his little sister from the deal his mom made with the Devil all those years ago?
I'm making progress on the new ms (5k this week), trying to distract myself from the full requests of GOLDEN waiting with agents. It won 1st place in the Codex Novel Contest for 2011 and I was really excited about that. I also had one agent who has asked today for a revamp and resub, which I'm a little nervous about. But I'm going to just take it one thing at a time and try my best. He had some great tips and ideas, and I'm excited to see what I can do with it (world-building mostly).
In the mean time, I thought I'd share an image with you guys--I don't think I've posted this one yet. It's still not quite done (I'm adding butterflies) but here's the "before."

Let's see if you can tell where I'm putting the little buggers...

Also, congrats on the contest win, as well as the full requests! I'll cross my fingers that one of them will lead to great things for Golden. :)
And wow, that image of yours is gorgeous! As an artist myself, I am totally in awe of your skills. (I'm especially impressed by the hair!) I'm choosing not to guess where the butterflies will go, though, since...uh...I'm weird and scared of 'em. XD
