In the darkness of the night is how it always started. The dream was the same, the same darkness the same fields of green that went out across the horizon. Please... fine me The voice pleaded. My name is Altier... and I need you to find me... Thus ended the dream at the light of dawn.


At least this how the story began back in almost 2000-2003 when I first began the project. Nearly 6 years later I've picked up my sword (pen) and began reviving my own novel idea. I've gotten much better about how to write and picked up some new techniques along the way that I actually do want to start up my story once more and finish it.

I recently picked up a lovely little Art Journal book in which I started to sketch out and add notes to all the details about my Story Dreams of Altier The original prologue and Chapter with all it's errors can be found here on my Old Old Elfwood page: [link]

When I'm done with my notebook I may take the time to post it up here on DeviantArt or find the time and cash to make a descent web page for it. who knows I might even publish it.

Currently I am working part time, with insurance benefits and free gym membership at a health club out here in California. Thanks to my wonderful Father, and ultra awesome roommate Haro-chan, I've gotten both a new tablet and scanner/printer combo though the scanner/printer is for both of us. Tablet is allll mine

Either way I'll be putting both to good use once I get a little more set up. But! it's allowing me to at least work on my actually sketchings.

So yes I've finally moved and still working on settling in. I keep waking up at ungodly weird hours like 7:35 am (WTF?!). No job yet and tossing out the commission bait for actual pay to at least bring in some funds so I can,

1. Help pay the untilities around the house.

2. Buy Deviantart subscription

3. while I'm tempted to be willing to let this go for a tiny bit. I do want to retain some sanity during all this and continue to play Warcraft. Only because it's a fun and overall cheaper way to keep in contact with people.... (vs the cellphone so try not to call it too often D


Also on my list of things to buy.

New Wacom Tablet (Old one wouldn't work with new laptop.

Printer /w Scanner (Makes life easier)



Better start digging out the pens to get to work on the other drawings I've been meaning to finish.
