In what has been an inspired harmonizing of words and art, and a storyscape richly carved out of light, shadows and dream-stuff, The Jackdaw and the Doll has been completed. This fable, penned by yours truly, and illustrated by pen-and-ink sorceress of worlds within worlds, Miss Izumi Yokoyama, has reached the end of one phase, in what we we hope will be a charmed and magical journey into the hearts of readers.
We now embark on our next phase: finding the the right publisher to help our Jackdaw take flight.
And away we go!
