Chapter 2 of Betwix: The World Between Worlds is Done!

Chapter 2: The Guild

Alex discovers she has somehow acquired an unusual ability since her waking. Under certain circumstances, it now seems she is able to create portals that are capable of sending her, and other things, short distances away, only adding to her confusion about where she is and why. None the less impressed by her unrefined power, the lulatun, Nebble Nimblegait, eagerly invites Alex to join his monster hunter's guild, though his companion, and only other member, Talah, isn't so enthusiastic about having a potentially mad mage accompanying them.

Revamped Alice's Covers with GIMP

Mostly I just gave the text an outline of black so it will pop more and be far more legible, even as thumbnails. Sounds simple, but it took many hours yesterday and today to finish them all. Still, pleased with the turn out!






Preparing for Monica's covers. The outlines should give my artist and I much more flexibility when it comes to imagery, text placement, and color.
I used a combination of MS Paint and GIMP to make the changes.

Progress on Chapter 2 Monica's Modern Magic: Double Trouble

Not a ton to report today. I've been working hard on Double Trouble's second chapter and am pleased to announce that it is a little more than half way done.

In this chapter, Monica's new friends come over so see if our young mage in training is the real deal.

Also, I'm trying to get my previous work, Alice Dippleblack, seen by literary agents to get the girls in front of some eyes and maybe even a publisher. Any tips from experience would be greatly appreciated.

It's a tough and uncertain journey ahead, but I'm going to do my best.

You can help support my efforts and aid in the creation of new fantastical adventures by supporting my patreon: https://www.patreon.com/kjbailey
Likes, shares, and comments are also a wonderful way to support me or any artist. It shows us that at least someone is watching.

Recap: Monica's Modern Magic is a novel series centered on a girl who discovers she is a mage. Magic has long since been absent and forgotten in the the world, but now it is coming back, and with it, so too are creatures long thought only myth and fairy tale.
