Progress on Demo

I'm on my 2nd and 3rd reads through with our new demo (15K words approximately). In the meantime, Claire Keller has continued to illustrate wonderful sprites. I'm quite in love with the uniform designs that she's created. Here's a sneak peek at Clan Aria's sigil and a few sketches of our resident "dad jokes" teller, Gilbert Nathaniel:

My aim during winter break (that teacher life, yo) is to compile a new draft of the demo. Hopefully it'll gain more traction than what it is now! I'm starting to garner interest in my writer's groups-though I feel that the demo is far from being polished in terms in writing. I honestly feel that our March deadline will hit the spot accurately, and that I could move on to Act II (end of Edith's creche days) more confidently.
