My Illustrated Middle Grade Novel; Sharonda, Pete and the Rest of the Crowley Family

Here's what I've been up to. One; I wrote an e-book, a young adult novella called Actuality: A Teenage Vampire Novella (check out my sidebar). The characters Wade and Heather wanted out, so it had to be done. But since I completed that, I've mainly been working on my middle grade novel Sharonda, Pete and the Rest of the Crowley Family. I'm mainly focusing on the text right now, but here's some of the illustrations so far, well, some are just quick doodles, but this is in sequnetial order.


I'm sure you've seen these all before, but now they're more in order. I'm actually missing one (I can't find where I saved it) and I still have to decide if I want to use the spring green or the mint green (which do you think?). The illustrations still have a long way to go, but I want to get the text down first. I'm about 15,000 words so far, so it's coming along. I'm about half way there. This is all I'm working on from here on out. I got my novella outta my head. I have tons of other stuff in my noggin, but it's all being shoved aside. I mean it for real this time, so if I'm not around much its cuz I'm working with the Crowleys.
