# About me
I am a very much non-average young lady. I am the oldest of seven kids, and I have pretty much always loved fairy tales and fantasy. I still believe I got in a lot of trouble for drawing on the walls when I was small, though Mom says I didn't. I do know that I've been drawing ever since I could hold the pencil, and I've been making my own stories since I could grasp a coherent plot.For a long time my only real exposure to fantasy was through the Colored Fairy Books, which I devoured as fast as we could get them from the library, and the Chronicles of Narnia, which I read until I wore the covers out. But I am and remain a book addict. Add that to the fact that I am homeschooled, and it wasn't long before 'The Hobbit' crossed my desk. Several months later, after finishing off the 'Return of the King', I was pretty well hooked on the fantasy genre.
It wasn't long afterwards that I came up with the idea for a series of stories that followed four children through a magical world of dryads, unicorns, fairies, and sorcerers.

Thank you very much! Yours is impressive, too. Ladykay is my sister-in-law, so I'm eagerly looking forward to that comic of yours where she's a character!

Yes, I'm not good at story development though. Ha ha. I'll be working on parts on a weekly basis, still deciding if I want to do it in color or not. :/

If you want, I may be able to help you with the story development. I'm also a writer, and have been working at that for almost as many years as I've been drawing. I'd love to help another writer develop her craft.

Thank you. I have bits and pieces, but my issue is putting it together. It has something to do with aircraft, alchemy, evil orginizations, and a steampunk vibe. The characters are pretty much put together in terms of personality and looks.

Sounds like a lot of fun! I sometimes have trouble putting my tales together, but I usually manage to cobble something up that makes it stick. The easiest way, I think anyway, would be to do critiquing through e-mail. My email address is kppohmes1o7@gmail.com. Looking forward to it!

Thanks! I'm going to try and add a background to that one eventually--as soon as I get a little more comfortable with backgrounds.

From an artist of your own skill, that is a high compliment indeed!
