This is a side project I've been working on. I've been working as a Freelance Illustrator for years now, giving life to other's stories. Which I love doing!  So I want to try to create my own stories.  This first story is an experiment. And honestly I've been hesitant to create and share it for a long time. But I'm forcing myself to put it out there! I am uploading the first part of the story for free on my ko-fi page. (link below)  There will probably be 4 parts to this story and then I will have the entire story available as an eBook. Maybe later I will have physical prints....but that is for the future! https://ko-fi.com/katpowellartist (donate)
