Brilliance in a webcomic.

I don't know where I got the pointer to it, but... wow.

Go back to the beginning, read from number one. Set aside some time.

It's just... wow. I really can't express how much I like love this comic.

It has magic, and faeries, and ghosts, and dragons, and demons, and robots, and gods, and a forest, and a school, and myth, and a history, and hidden -- revealed in hints and flashes -- past, and a deep understanding of esotericism, and characters with pathos.

And cool art. And evocative concepts.

tooticky, especially, I think you'll like it.

Squeee? Cool. I'll definitely have a look, especially since I'm kinda house-bound for the next few days. Thankyou!
And hey, how's the writing going?

Writing is hard.

Gah.

I've had some thoughts about plot progression and motivation and such like, and rearranged elements in my head — most of this done in the car on the way home, but then I never get around to writing anything at home, and I certainly don't have time at work, not even stolen moments, and every time I get down to actually putting words on virtual paper, I get hung up on details, making each scene/paragraph/sentence Just So, and never looking up enough to see how I'm going to get to the next point.

Argh. I can describe what's going on, but I am really having difficulty with putting it into a story, especially one that people might want to read.


Like I said, gah.

It is, indeed, wonderful stuff.

I've been working my way steadily through the archive. I'm not normally much of a fan of web comics but you're right; this is a good one. I particularly like Coyote... but you were expecting that, right?

No, that comes as a complete surprise.
