The Nadthsade Dragon

August 30, 2024

The idea for this was to do a webcomic after attempts at writing my third novel continuously stalled. I still wrestle with it, but I thought instead to slow down, stay in the universe I was dreaming up and the places such as the Halls of Neihembreth, presented by Hue Truetell, my narrator, my investigator/reporter character, to explore concepts, characters, and let it serve what my guru has been showing me all these years– that “the communication often dictates the terms, and even makes the schedule. Planning makes no difference usually.” Now a bit more looser in my approach, I’m having a blast with this title.

Not only is this leg of the story about what happens after Jeshibian’s journey– his great search for truth in the form of the child of his sadhana– but it’s also about who that child is, what she might think of all the hype. It’s also about what each character who came into contact with her has to say about what the journey meant to them.

Again I’m having a blast doing this project. I hope you enjoy it to. The latest title is now complete, and will be available to purchase copies at IndyPlanet, hopefully in the near future. You can preview it here but you’ll need to register here. I’d love to hear from you.
