Update

I haven't forgotten about this project!  I'm currently busy revising the first chapter in outline format, AND I'm busy fleshing out the second chapter too. 

To be truthful, I've changed a lot in what happens in the second chapter, and it's making me go back and fix the story here and there.  In the end, I feel it will bring a smoother transition when we *re-introduce some characters later in the story.

So far, with the change in how the story will be presented, I've been looking up ways to depict the first chapter in a graphic novel setting.  I've learned that I need to create a comic script, and to make it easier on the artist, a rough draft thumbnails of the panels and dialogue I want in it. 

At the moment, I'm really trying to breathe some life into the second chapter, as I've always felt it didn't really have any particular point except for introducing a character that joins with Leo.  It wasn't enough!  But now, however, the chapter has it's own mini-story!  I'm really excited to write it, which is a great thing! 

It delves into the history behind Seriage, the orphan kid.  It not only talks about his bringing up, but introduces other characters who will eventually be an integral part of the story later on in the entire series!
