The Darkling Child Series

This book is the first in a series I hope to continue. It was inspired by both my grandfather and grandson. I wanted to teach my grandson to read and also to teach him about my grandfather, who passed away before he was born. It's called a mouse a cat a bat.

I did finally get it done in time for X-mas. I self-published it and only did 6 copies as it is my first time doing this so I wanted to see how it would turn out before I invested too much money into it. I also ran out of time before my deadline (which was the 22nd) so I didn't get as much variety into the illustrations as I would have liked. But I'm good with it.

Here are a few sample pages:

As this book was specifically dedicated to my grandson, it is not for sale. It was just too expensive to produce. Although, if you are interested I could print you a copy for about $50. But the next one will be more affordable as I'll make a bigger quantity!

Under A Black Hood Tears Run Red And A Tiny Violin Plays For Me

I think I must have been quite out of it yesterday because I labeled the post for the 7 of Swords as the 7 of Wands and just noticed it now.
I'm sick now, so perhaps yesterday was one of those delirious days where you really are out of it but don't know it because of a delusional fever. Forgive me. Perhaps I should re-read what I wrote yesterday to ensure it makes sense. Let me know if it doesn't. Likely its not going to make sense to begin with because I'm a bit of a crackpot.... so it'll be hard to tell. Whatever.

Today I'm going to curl up under my hood with this





and this

I'm not coming out until I feel better because I'm the only one available to feel sorry for myself. I really hate being sick. Grrrrrumpy.

Oh there is a knock at the door. Just a moment please....

My package from Gorey Detials came! So I'll have some new toys to play with too!

I'll see ya in a couple of days. zzzzzz
