First off, the title of the series is not 'Dinosaur', nor is it 'roject: Dinosaur'. That's just a placeholder until I can come up with something better.

Project: Dinosaur is a fantasy book series, only with dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures (from the dawn of life up to the end of the Ice Age) in the place of normal fanatsy creatures like dragons, unicorns, and the like.

Right now, I'm still creating background info, characters, and working on a plot outline. When I actually start writing it, expect another journal.

Here's the unofficial emblem I'm using for it: [link]
It's unoffical because I imagine when I get published (not I say 'when', not 'if'; I have high self-confidence) the cover artist and the publisher will create something of their own.

I hope to put up some drawings of the main characters... soon.

If you missed my last entry on inspiration (read it here: [link] very eloquent, I thought), you begin to get a small idea of how my mind works. Sadly, further inspiration on the Guardian Sagas has died an ignoble (temporary) death. To keep working, I'm going to focus on another project, one I mentioned a few journal entries back.

This time, I start to wander, I beat myself senseless. Once I come to, I'll know better than to mess with myself, and STAY FOCUSED!!!

Tottles.

What brought that on? Inspiration, obviously.

In my previous entry, I stated that 'The Guardian Saga' was on hold. It is now off hold. New ideas and inspiration, along with a fresh, clean, lemon-scented look at its core, have promised that the cliche-ishness will be cut back. For those of you reading, expect artwork, soon, including what I plan to serve as my official emblem of the series.

And thatother project I spoke of? It still exists, along with like fifty of its friedns, all begging to be written. Have no fear, they shall recieve their limelight soon enough.

Anyway, I have some news, both belated and not. The belated news is that I'm putting the Guardian Saga on hold for the time being. For the two of you who read this (one of whom is me), you already know this. For everyone else, its because it was a little too flat and cliche-ish for my tastes, so Im stepping back. When I get back to it, it will hopefully be with new eyes.

But I'm not sitting on my behind in the meantime. I've got a new project I'm working on, and I hope to let y'all see some stuff from it soon.

Until then.

So far, it looks like college could be pretty fun, but I guess we'll see, no?

Anyway, due to new time restraints, the batch of new artwork I had planned for "The Guardian Saga" (I love the way that sounds) will be delayed. but fear not, it will come out, eventually.

I am known, here at least, as wordwizard18. I am an aspiring writer, and in fact am working on my first novel, called 'The Beginning'. In fact, my first bit of artwork, made by my friend Shelf-of-Insanity, is from that book. Go check it out, and please leave comments; I always appreciate feedback. Or criticism, such as it may be.

As this entry is just to say hola, I will wrap it up.

Goodbye.
