Day something


Two new creatures for you today. The first is featured on the right here.

This little fellow is a Wishing Lemon, and its name is Growth. Wishing Lemons are magical creatures that live in the Lemon Forest and hide among the lemon trees. They aren't exactly animate lemons, but they look like them and live among the trees, so they were given that name. Each of them have distinct patterns on them and they make little jingling noises from the trees; that's how you know they're nearby. They're very rare and difficult to find, but rumor as it that if you see one and make a wish, something very good will happen to you.

I decided to make one of these the other day and I'm not really sure why. I really like making them, though. They're going to be a big part of the universe, though whether or not they'll appear in this book I haven't yet decided.

I've started concepts for riverseals, which are tiny freshwater seals. I had a dream about them once a very long time ago and was reminded of them today when looking into the semi-flooded backyard of my great aunt's house. I'll work on some concept art.

No new writing just yet, but many, many new ideas!
