*Sigh*
Guys, I hate to say this, but this story just isn't working for me. I'm not sure exactly what it is (the illustrated novel format, the attempt to create an alien culture and mythology, the monochrome art, something else, maybe a lit be of everything…) But the bottom line is most of us don't do this for money, so if we're not getting enough of something else from it, we probably shouldn't do it.
Sorry if this disappoints those of you who've invested in it, but it's better to be honest with you now. My buffer is built up to the end of this chapter (page 40) so I'll post to the end, and then this thing will go on hiatus. Won't delete it just in case I decide I wanna revisit it at a later date.
Oh well. It was an interesting experiment!! But I'm gonna have to do something else…
Right now I'm thinking a true Godstrain Sequel!!
I still like this phrase: Life and Good Dreams!

Actually I do - I just hide it from my hubby... :)

What a sneaky one! Oh I'm sad to hear that because I really enjoy this story and Rhiaan's character. But I say work on what makes you happy and what you enjoy making. Like you said, we don't make any money creating, we do it because we enjoy it! :)

Yeah, it bums me out for you all who were enjoying this! I wish my fire for it was a little hotter! But as I said, I won't rule out revisiting this thing later on!

Hey, you've kept your drawing and writing skills sharp and played with the format in a neat way - I'd call that a good job! There's no point forcing yourself to do something that's not working for you! I'll be curious to see how the chapter ends for Rhiaan, and of course to whatever you get up to next!

Well that's a good way to put some sunshine on this! Thanks! I really need some!! I had a full Godstrain sequel plotted out, but decided to not go with that... Wondering if that was a mistake! Oh well, I'll mull it over a bit longer! Certainly gonna do something! :D
