Part 6 (the final part) of the Tortoise and Hare is finished! I can't tell you how uber excited I am to finally write a book and complete it all the way through! But I'm not ready for publication just yet..... There is editing and tweaking to still do-- and really a LOT of work still left.

I have a month left to finish 15 Illustrations and the manuscript for "The Tortoise and The Hare" and I simply do not have the time or energy to take on anything else. That's right- what will, and has been eating up my time is this book. (Plus I'm moving into dorm at a 4 year college this month too...so yeah...it's a hectic one).
I will continue work on deviantART as best I can with ^savagebinn's help. But please forgive me if I don't respond to every comment right away. When I'm finished this project, I should be back to my usual talkative self

I am due for publication this spring and it will be available world wide through XLibris Publishing. And hopefully if I can continue to get enough support, I will be coming to Pittsburgh for AnthroCon this coming summer to do book signing.

This book will be roughly 50 pages in length, containing full color illustrations along with chiaroscuro drawings, the story, and concept art with a guest art section included for the winners of the currently running contest. See the link below.

My heart and soul has went into this project and I really hope my efforts will bring a warm feeling to anyone who will pick up this book. While the story appeals to far more than just your average animal fanatic, the audience here and on dA is my biggest chunk of supporters. Xlibris is a huge name in self-publishing, but I'm going to still need help in getting the word out.

Your continued support and feedback is most appreciated as I get through the home stretch here in the month of January <3
Thank you!

Friend in Need!
A good friend of mine is in dire need of a roommate to help support the rent for his apartment in the Boston area of Massachusetts. He's going to school up there and moving out would be a detrimental and depressing option. If you are interested in moving to Boston for any reason or if you live in the area and are willing to help a guy out-- please let me know
