Did you have to painstakingly trace around every single hair spike?

Not really. I've found with hair that the easiest way is to just trace within the lines. As long as you get some spikes it's fine, but you don't need every single one.

There are so many Mik-Melting-Moments..... When he thinks nobody ever wanted to thump fists with him before, I went aaaaaw.
And , yuck, when they kill that horse -- only in France LOL and it was funny when Daniel tells Mik he has to jump up and down waving his arms in front of horse.... Well, ok just stand there then . There are so many funny little bits threaded through : Humour by Stealth reading

I read Nicole Kimberling's The red Thread of Forever Love. It was good. Not a smokin' hot book, but very charming. I like the way she writes fantasy.

well that puts an entirely different angle on the questions whipping

.... Who am I kidding? I want to know book 3 title

Lol. That's one question you won't get an answer to... simply because I don't know it. Still trying to think up the name for it.

Well I do have questions on Book 3 but I'm saving them. tongue

Of course by the time I get some reading time and actually finish DoD I may not need the answers!! But some of the things swirling in my mind are that Sarah isn't dead; and that Nate can't be trusted.... Of course you seem to love Nate heart

but given that you are in fact E.V.I.L. Twisted Evil

... This sorta makes me think I could be right !!

I'm expecting to feel differently about him when seeing the world from his POV.

This is true. I really want an Ash pov Sad

ETA the true was to Andy. The I dunno is to Daniel... Re the pics and the book I would do Ash - look at that jaw, man. But Nate has plump little nibblable lips, I'll give you that much

The one with the chains, apparently I have a jaw thing. Because it is the jaw I'm fixating on. Not the chains. Wink

So Daniel, tell me... How did the Goodreads m/m thing happen? Do they approach you to write a story? Or do you offer? It must have given you quite a kick. It really is a good way to get your name out there.

And did you go through all the prompt options, and choose your story? Or were you told OK this is yours... Run with it be right back

(I nearly went a whole post without a smilie. So close.)

My God... What time is it there?

It's a yearly event they do. This year there were a bunch of photos and the people in the group came up with some prompts to go with them. Then the authors get their chance to pick the prompt they want to work on.

It was just a fun thing to do really. Normally I wouldn't write shorts... novellas maybe, but my imagination always goes crazy when I come up with story ideas. So I usually end up with full novel-length ideas. Somehow managed to keep this one under 20k words though.

And it's 3:15am. I'm taking full advantage of the bank holiday's to stay up and do some work happy dance

Yeah I do that. I've had 4 days off. Stayed up til 5 on Friday night, but my powers of recovery aren't what they were
