      Great ideas! The story sounds cute and it would be really fun to watch you progress with it, @TessW .

      I have been thinking about reviving a comic strip idea I've been kicking around (and abandoning) for several years. @MissMarck, you have a good idea - using "Sketchtember" to prepare. Thanks for the idea 🙂

        Thanks guys.

        That's a really good idea @MissMarck I was thinking of doing somethings similar, in starting the sketch process now. Sketchtember is a really good idea!

        Honestly not sure if I want to commit the mental energy into such a big project as of yet and I might just go with the prompt list for this year. We'll see!

          @tessw, I don't expect to create a finished drawing each day, but just the act of working on a project daily will be the challenge. I often tend to wander off into other interesting things, so this helps build the discipline muscle. Whatever output I end up with will be icing on the cake.

                  @marsha-kay-ottum-owen I've seen a handful of artists do it. Nowhere near the scale of Inktober, but it works for me!

                    @kat That's a good healthy way to look at it!

                    @jasonandroosmith Thank you! My instagram link is in my signature below.

                    @Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen Thanks!

                    I'm still not sure if I'll do this for Inktober, but I'll continue to develop it on the side. I like the story, but I kind of want to ponder what format would be best for it. Short graphic novel? Short chapter book? Picture book?

                    Either way, I'm excited for Inktober and I am glad that "Sketchtember" is a thing now. :}

                          I'm doing more monsters for Inktober. I had a lot of fun with them. Won't paint them this time though.
