Author Notes
After completing Inverloch, I immediately jumped right in to scripting out my second story. It still had many flaws - I think the characters are probably aren't as loved by the readers as those from Inverloch - but it was a more strongly plotted story with better direction, planning, and less of the whole making-things-up-as-I-go-along.
The art is more consistent from beginning to end, having grown my skills so much during Inverloch. It's certainly not my final form, but a large stepping stone on the way to finding my comic style. And as with Inverloch, the community that formed while the story slowly updated and revealed itself online over the course of 3 years was honestly one of the best memories I have of my 20s.
