As much as these have paid off (I've got a BUNCH of scripts to polish and a couple I could book dummy) my interest and focus has moved to Slowvember, and the inevitable portfolio overhaul I need to do.
I hope everyone else enjoyed these up to this point, but no more prompts. Many apologies.
I'm gonna go paint a girl with her arms full of mis-matched socks running away from a ravening pack of adorable jackals

@Braden-Hallett I have loved these. Thank you so much Braden. I wondered if you would be able to keep it up all month.
I am amazed at how my writing has changed already and my thoughts about what books I will like to write, illustrate, and read.
I will post Prompts for the rest of the month for those who are continuing to write. Give me an hour or so and I will get Prompt 17 & 18 up.

Okay, my boys decided to help me! So we got some good ones. I also have some extras I will post after the end of the month. I will also try post one day ahead as @Braden-Hallett did.
