I'm working on writing a series of books dealing with human-like insect creatures. These creatures are not like the typical bug. They are neither truely insect nor human. They call themselves insect folk.

I've been developing my characters since 5th grade when I needed something to occupy my recess time. I found using the swing set and imagining scenes in my head as a great way to spend my time. Otherwise recess got pretty boring. Over the years the story and the characters have evolved.

I rather not post my work straight on a public forum, but I can link you to a site where I display some of my artwork and writing.

If anyone was a member of the ANI around 1996, you may recognize me. I helped design a shirt called "CANT" (Cure All Neuro Typicals) as a protest to CAN (Cure Autism Now) It was a blue fly eating a pie, really had nothing to do with the message, but many people seemed to like it nonetheless.

I really liked the story I read and the drawings are excellent. I hope that you get someone to publish them.

Thanks. It's part of a really elaborate series. There's some sci-fi elements and fantasy.

Although I really don't like to give away too much of the plot because like another novel writer here, I'm afraid of idea stealing.
