What a week for my Alice project. Up to now it has been taking anything up to three weeks to make a chapter of the story, text and illustrations. Well, I have written and illustrated chapter 8 in 6 days. Putting this into perspective, I have tried to keep each chapter to between 3500 and 4500 words. Chapter 8 is roughly 3750 words. I am trying to keep to an average of four illustrations for each chapter. I produced 3 completely new illustrations for chapter 8 and adapted one of my own sketches.
One thing I’m very happy about is that this means that 2/3 of the books planned 12 chapters are complete. When I have written the next chapter, then that will become ¾.
I explained in a earlier post how I am often writing before going to work in the morning. Well, working on it a couple of evenings this week when I had the oomph to do it made a big difference.
Well, here’s the illustrations made since my last post:-
