PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING FEBRUARY 16, 2019

Okay, got some work done reviewing my friendly neighborhood beta-proofreader's notes concerning HUGH MONN, PRIVATE DETECTIVE, BOOK 3: FEMME FATALE; but I am DEFINITELY going back to start my second pass on "Zephyr Lily" for Jim Beard's 1970s anthology this week.

Tried looking for an appropriate image, but no one has yet to draw the character, the word ZEPHYR either gets me classic cars or dirigibles, and there's too many flowers to sort through for LILY, although I do like this one of a Stargazer, probably so named because of the spotted interior.

Anyway, besides being a writer in general, it has always been a lifelong dream of mine to write for a comic book company.
I leaned towards DC until they started having CRISES and reboots on a regular basis, and while there are some Marvel Comics characters I like, they've hopped on the reboot bandwagon too in recent years, so I'm not completely sure where either company is continuity wise right now.

Unfortunately, the closest I've ever come to achieving this dream is getting involved with start ups that never seem to make it past the "Wouldn't it be nice if...?" stage of existence.😔
Hence everything I've ever wrote or done for them editing wise is just sitting in a computer file gathering electronic "dust", especially since I'm uncertain of the legalities concerning who actually owns what.😢

But I still have HUGH and ALPHA, along with THE REBEL I created for Jaime Ramos' SINGULARITY-RISE OF THE POST HUMANS anthology. Would love to get back to her whenever the opportunity presents itself sir!
And now I have with ZEPHYR LILY a new, mysterious champion to add to my roster!😁

So I better get back to writing/editing.
See you around the Internet!
