A Wolf Like Me
“In the priest’s veins runs the blood of an old Romanian hunting family, whose trade depends solely on the existence of all those creatures that go bump in the night–or, well, their extinction. As the eldest in his generation, Lucian was primed as a child to receieve the gift of old money and ancient power once he came of age–all to be put toward extinguishing the supernatural infection on Earth. Things changed, however, when he stumbled into God.
Decades later, Lucian still keeps his wounded family ties at arm’s length while he preaches in Moscow, circa 1960s. Lord knows he’s had enough of the weird and the occult to last him a lifetime. But in order to keep his head attached to his neck in this violent, atheist state, he’s had to make …compromises. Don’t get him wrong; Lucian loves his work more than life itself. It’s just not easy when his world–and, at times, even himself–is slated against it.”
As promised!
TWO POSTS IN TWO DAYS. I will give myself a pat on the back because I am so proud of myself for getting things done. /pat pat
Bear with me, guys; the excitement is just around the corner. Or, well, I’M totally psyched about it, anyway. Since I won’t be posting pages for a few weeks here until I get some webspace set aside for them, I dunno… would you guys be interested in seeing anything else in the meantime? Works in progress, bits of scripts, silly character memes, the playlist i’m listening to? Something?? Seriously, just shout and I will oblige.
ALSO, a kind internet stranger pointed out that I’m in the Society of Illustrator’s annual scholarship competition (the third row). I didn’t even know they announced the show entries, let alone that I happened to be the only MCADian to get into this insanely prestegious show this year wat wat WAT
i-i’m not worthy /sobs
My god, you guys, I thank you for all of your support. Today alone has been absolutely awesome and so very dangerous to my ego; my sense of self worth is like THIS HIGH right now /miscellaneous hand motions
Seriously, you all spoil me and leave me speechless sometimes with your excellent selves, I swear. As much as I try to keep up with comments and stuff, even if I don’t reply, I have read it! And I promise, all your kind words brighten my freakin’ day, every time.

Congratulations – you deserve it. Allow yourself a little ego stroke now and then!

Aww yay guess I’m glad I let you know? I have no clue how those things work but with my friends the word spreads fast on who got in! Totally enjoy the ego moment because validation makes all the work so worth it.

As always, thank you Mr Bricker. /bows
shannon: Hahah, I actually went to my professor today (who had put my submission through to the society) and that was the first he had heard of anything! I figured he would’ve been the first to know, if anyone.
We high-fived anyway.
