Bunny Bees

This is a story I've been working on, it's pretty surreal and very silly...but still cute. I'm not yet sure how it should end, hmmm...

Cat ACEOs

ACEO stands for "Art Cards, Editions & Originals".
They're miniature works of art and they're an inexpensive way to buy original or limited edition art. Having seen some really beautiful ones on Etsy (www.etsy.com) I thought I would try some of my own...what do you think?

Mew-tants

Another AMAZING (awful) comic book idea...these kittens are walking along and they stumble into some radioactive goo. It turns all their legs into new things like, one has the legs of a spider, another has a treadmill thing, one has a slug's body and one grows into a big tree in the middle of the goo and he is then King of the Mutant Kittens. And then they fight CRIME...or something.

It can be called....Mew-tants. Geddit?

So yeah, this is why I need to ALWAYS work with writers.
