Can I make an innocuous suggestion? Would you be able to include a pronunciation guide? For the longest time, while reading Harry Pottler, I thought her name was pronounced "Her-mee-own". Just as an example.

:D

Hm interesting. A lot of people ask me how to pronounce things, and I try to spell things logically so they're not hard to pronounce. I kind of want to keep the book as spare as possible, so that might be something to put on the website's "extras" section. :P

And I also used to pronounce "Hermeeown" too haha! It's good to know I wasn't the only one. :x

Tony... I hear you on the confusion with pronunciation, I did a little homework on the subject, and I will share it with you.

The pronunciation from Merriam Websters Dictionary...

Tabby = ˈta-bē

Hope that helps.

Thanks, Dick.

Awww, I like having cool extras in books! I hope you get more of your art in, at least?

This Song guy has a pretty cute smile. :D

Seung Heon is famous for his dark eyebrows. Personally, I think my husband's are better! XD But of course I'd say something like that...

I'm actually a real plain reader. I like it when a book is just as it is, so the illustrations thing has really been tearing me apart. I can't help but feel as if the book will be better served without them.

Actually, there's also something to be said about leaving the images to the imagination of the reader, as opposed to showing them "This is how it is." :D

Either way, I'm still very much looking forward to getting it!

It will be interesting to read your book; I'm certain I'll be visualising your characters in your drawing style as I read, ha ha!
If it was to be animation, I'd want the same studio that did Last Exile to work on it (or one that does same quality).
Hey, we can dream too.

merofi February 12 2009, 07:25:56 UTC

I had to look up Last Exile and WOW the animation is amazing! O_O A while back, Clio showed me the music video to Capsule's Space Station No. 9, and I thought it was perfect for a Rema movie. Hey, we can all dream. XD

This is most exciting.
Who's publsihing it?
I can't wait for it to be printed.

merofi February 12 2009, 07:27:49 UTC

There is no publisher, I'm just trying to finish it first! These drawings are just for fun, to help me get into the mood for writing. :)

Me encanta tu estilo! Raed looks almost wild with his hair down. XD

merofi February 12 2009, 07:30:01 UTC

Thanks! He actually grew up in the wild for a bit, so it's funny you say that!
