Here's a character from my fifth novel, going in a different direction. I just started this a couple days ago. It's contemporary fantasy. I'm gathering ideas, doing character studies, making up names, and doing some really loose plotting. I have a title already, but I'm not certain about it it. Call it WD for short.
Her name is Cira (soft S, like Seer-ah), and she's a breeder of sorts, a witch who can--and does--make that thing hovering over her shoulder, multiply. You and I cannot see them, howver. She's not the protag, but a very important supporting character.

WOW! How fun! I love this! Great hair, great illo! Sounds like a fun book.

Thanks, Tony! Beautiful work you've posted--all of it. I love your one day portraits from last March--and your pencil work is just extraordinary. Do you sketch or paint characters from your writing?
