Ephemera
A collection of the sketches, aesthetic boards, and other random things used in developing or promoting dhand Origin Stories, it's characters, and it's world.
Bonus Art
Some character cards featuring the characters and the shadows they're living in.
Cover, sans text and logos.
I used to get a kick out of seeing cover art without all the details that make it a book cover. So, here's my cover.
1990's anime remix
I have no good explanation here except that I thought of drawing the main characters of Secondhand Origin Stories as if it was a vintage anime. I guess because anime in the 90's so influenced my thoughts about stories and characters. Please note that the background is stolen from an episode of the original Sailor Moon anime, for that real, authentic look.
Icons
Just in case anyone wanted to use a Second Sentinels character for an icon, somewhere.
Discarded covers
Each of these was a potential cover design for Secondhand Origin Stories, but was not used for one reason or another.
Aesthetic boards
Used to develop the characters, because I process things visually. You can source these & other visual inspiration for the series here.
Here is a meme I did on twitter with a wide range of random facts about the book.
The blueprint from the front of the book, enlargeable for your scrutiny. There is enough information in the
book to readily sort out which
apartment belongs to who.
Tea Blends
Sometimes I develop things visually, and sometimes I consider what flavors my characters would be if they were tea blends. I mean, doesn't everyone do this?
You can even buy and taste these here
Launch party
We had a great book launch at Moon Palace Books in Minneapolis!
