something i'm developing as an upcoming single book thing. always wanted to make a single book fairy tale 

the queen and the Woodborn

it is a tale of a queen that has fulfilled her duty to the crown and sired a heir to the throne. after that she found herself being ignored, left to her own devices. nobody paid her any attention and after her son turned twelve he was taken to be raised by the king and his council. left alone and ignored being no more but a throne ornament, she takes to wandering on her own, first in the palace and soon after outside. these walks get progressively longer until she wanders too far in the old woods and stumbles into the territory of the old gods and there she encounters the Woodtborn, and her grand adventure begins.

in the style of the old fairy tales as her punishment for trespassing into the sacred realm, the Woodborn asks for the queen's first born child to be raised in the woods. the queen pleads for mercy and an arrangement is struck where the queen will serve the Woodborn.

hilarity ensues.

so yeah i kinda want to do a think one and done volume and tell a cool fantasy romance type thing, dark and exciting and just...fun.think of it as a miyazaki story for an adult audience. a fairy tale  with a mature rating XD

for this i will have to reorganize some of my future plans but as this will be a single probably 200+ page volume, my plans won't get derailed for too long.

might do it between sunstone volumes, i'll see

I love the style. Hope there will be a hight quality print.

Joshua Ohmer

It looks and sounds awesome! I love the character dynamic already.

DRG Pets

Love it. Will it be an illustrated book? A comic? Purely written? Combination?

Xion

You had me at Miyazaki Type of story 😏 Will there be a new tire at Patreon to read it or wont you show it at all till it is finished and sold as a completed book?

Meganclare7

Ah, I see you have decided to go for it. I seen you talk about it on Twitter and wondered if you would.

Camwell Arts

I actually really love this idea. Especially the little detail that the Woodborn doesnt know what stretch marks are. That's just kinda cute and funny

Liz Denocte

yes yes yes also the stretchmarks thing is EXTREMELY cute and I want to hug both of them

Josephine Baird

I think this is wonderful. I love seeing it develop on your twitter and so glad you decided to follow your inspiration. Can't wait to see how it all comes about.

Frank Punch

I absolutely love what you've shown so far, and I'm 100% on board for fancy covers!(Just picked up my acetate-hard cover Harleen)

Fanny Juillard

I SO love the exchange about the queen's stretch marks 😂😂😂

geekinlikeaboss

A) I'm a sucker for fairy tale structured story telling. B) As always your artwork inspires the mind and thrills me. C) LESBIANS!

Ghost

Geez, you've been busy. Also, super keen for a fairlytale-esque story in your style :D

Brave Sir Robbin

This looks fantastic. I'm personally very excited. As a creator you need make what your inspired to make. It keeps you fresh and creative. In turn it makes your other works better. I'm here for the long haul as is my pledge.

Therian

You had me at adult fairy tale and sealed the deal with the lesbian inclination. I'll support you on whatever platform you decide to go with. I enjoy your storytelling and character creation. I think this will be an excellent addition to your legacy.

Mikhail Aristov

Please excuse my skepticism, but I cannot shake off the feeling that you won't be able to stop at a single plot arc and turn it into another long-runner series. XD Not that any of us mind, of course. ;-)

Silke

Oh this looks so freaking good! A mature, lesbian romance fairy tale? A wish come true!! Thank you so much!

Jérôme Beard

It's absolutely awesome. Can't wait to read this one as well :)

Roo

I am vibrating with excitement and anticipation! Can you please put a list somewhere of all your works - completed and in progress? I feel like I have missed seeing some of it. I only just recently discovered your work on the Harley Quinn backstory - it's amazing! I don't want to miss out on any other stuff you've crafted.

Allison Matthas

Eeee! Always a sucker for fairytales and mystical creatures!

Kaiyeti

This is both amazingly beautiful and brilliantly interesting. Magnificent masterpiece of pure flawless perfection my god emperor of awesomeness friend. *yetihug*

Ola

GOOD yes thank you, wow

Faye Fatale

I'm glad you didn't let this idea go. It seems like it is going to be amazing.

Jesse Rosen

Thats a big "Yes More" from me!

Debs

I LOVE IT ALREADY

Katinka

Liking it so far.

CrazyD

this is so amazing, and I really cant wait to see more

Ghost Mom

If you kickstarted this project i'd support it no hesitation as Im sure most people would as well.

Zoe

I can't get over how much I love this.

Megan Derr

The stretch marks, such a great detail! I am in love, new favorite already.

madlycan

rather interesting indeed

Belbe

As a new mom... Man I love this so much. Thank you!!!

Bowman

That is excellent, I would fully support this endeavor.

Kintoga

A fairy tale with a mature rating sounds great

Fritz Sands

I am really excited for this.

Alysandir

I'd read this. Absolutely. But I'm also going to say that this makes me miss Ravine all the more.

Chris

This looks amazing! You have so many great ideas!

GG

I'm getting a strong Neil Gaiman's Stardust vibe, I'm really excited for this

Vairya1

How did you get a sense of what the style of old fairy tales is like? I'd really, really like to know.

Mike

I may have jumped up and down in my seat at the prospect of this. Just a little bit.

SandyEA

I can hardly wait!

David W

What a great idea! Can barely wait!

Possum

I am actually super hyped for this

Lumination

I am all about all of this.

RaidTheGrove

Yes! This looks and sounds awesome

Rena Beckert

LOVE the one About the stretch marks. HI-LA-ROUIS !

Chimera80

The odds of you successfully restricting yourself to a one-and-done short, fun romp are hilarious. Your characters will start independently developing large, fully-fleshed out backstories and complicated histories any moment now ^.^

Frank Lanza Jr

Looks like a lot of fun, and I'd expect nothing less! Can't wait to see it evolve.

Em M

I'm sold. Hilarity ensues, indeed.

Seriitz

I love this. So. Much. Yes.

Mika

Single volume huh...

Jason Blaydeaux

One volume? Kinda like how Sunstone was only a collection of fun one page comics? Or like how Fine Print was only about a lady having to decide who was the better succubi/succubus? Or is it more like how Harleen was a short black and white comic that you weren't going to complete? See where I'm going with this? Kidding aside, I'm looking forward to this.

hollyygram

I’m so excited. You draw such wonderful rage faces 🥴

Skyeanna Malito

Oh I'm so excited for more! And the strerch marks! Hah!

Sam McCart

When I first discovered you on Deviantart I was blown away by your illustrations. Now that I've been following your works I'm even more impressed by all your original story concepts. Please don't ever stop.

Mark R. Peterson

Have you thought about putting this on Kickstarter? Then marketing it on Twitter. I know a ton of people who would love this. I buy a lot of indy comics off Kickstart along this vein of storytelling. The Harleen book has garnered you are larger mainstream following that would probably like this.

Rena 233

This somehow reminds me of the book "Uprooted" by Naomi Novik. I just love the magical feeling that fairy tales bring.

Yani Pohl

I'm already in love with this! Can't wait to see more.

Iñaki

I am eager to read it can't wait! I hope a printing version will come out eventually

Desmond Auer

Oh, yeah, this looks very promising....
