Writing
As the Jokka have danced through the sands; as the women of the UAV Stardancer have worked through first contacts and old conflicts; as Reese has battled for the life of a paladin-healer and Morgan has prayed for a life worth living. . . I have been there, writing, weaving, breathing their lives.
I am a teller of stories.
My work becomes available as people fund it. Patrons, fans and visitors tell me which projects sound interesting to them by commenting on artwork and my livejournal. I use that interest to choose which projects I make publically available. Once they're scheduled for release, fans can donate money to make each chapter publically available. Once the entire work has been funded, hard copies are made available for people who'd like special bound editions, with companion illustrations, maps, backmatter, etc. Patrons who helped pay for the online edition are acknowledged in the hard copies.
