Book 2: The Nature of Progress

I received the first draft of the second book in the last week of December 2012 and am happy to report that work has begun. Book 2 has a lot going on and will introduce many new characters and historic time periods and places.

With the introduction of these aspects to the book brings new challenges to create more people, architecture, and beautiful trees to the ever evolving world that will be represented in Leah's new story.

This go around the illustrations will be presented in a more graphically designed style based on the places and characters involved. Tincup and the Tornado was presented in a stylized scientific "chaotic" design to represent the randomness of nature in its purest form. The end of the book is finished with a more graphical approach with the introduction of society and its evolution of architecture over time. That design will continue in the Book 2.

Stay tuned for more updates.
