News on the Graphic Novel, “Trea’Loong: Fann’s Ascent”
January 31st, 2007 About "Trea'Loong: Fann's Ascent", Chasing The Dream

Yeah, it has a title now. My partner in the endeavor, Jeff Fitzgerald, first came up with Trealoong as the name of the world that the story takes place in, so that credit goes to him. I was the one who came along and put the apostrophe in there, much like my Romu’ateb vampires in the third Focus of Bloodlines installment. I just thought it would look cooler that way. As far as the Fann’s Ascent part of the title, I’m not going to say much other than it came from my mind. I will have you all know that it does refer to the main character, but that’s all I will divulge this early in the development.

I have completed the outline for the story, along with about 20% of the dialogue. Jeff and I are meeting once a week for a few hours to go over what I’ve written and form a plan for the drawings that he will be doing over the following week. I have to say that we work very well together, and our creativity on this project seems to have no end! We are on schedule to have around 35% of the graphic novel complete by our self-set March 1st deadline. From there we will begin to pitch it to various contacts that we have in the comic world.

Know this… Jeff’s artwork is phenomenal! I can’t wait to see our work blended together in a published graphic novel!

Well, that’s all for now. I’m sorry to tease you all with a title, but no description of the story. If all goes well you will be tasting the fruits of our labor in a year or less (hopefully).

So long, January!

[...] Moving on to the school thing. I’ll be going to the York County Community College, starting this January. I have already been accepted, and I go in next month to enroll for my classes. I’m thinking of balancing computer-related courses with some creative writing, but the latter will not be my main focus unfortunately. I have to think practical, and I have to acknowledge the possibility that my work may never get out there. It is more important that I focus on creating a good foundation for my family’s future. I’m not saying that I’m not going to focus all of my free time on my dream… it’s still very much alive! In fact, you can all look forward to some posts about Trea’Loong: Fann’s Ascent in the near future. [...]
