The Making of Dreamland Page 15…
Happy Wednesday everyone!
The script for Chapter 14 is coming along well.
There’s a lot of dialog and talking in this one. I feel bad. Chapter 13 had a lot of fun action and twists and turns. This chapter ties up a lot of loose ends.
But…I hope you’ll like it.
🙂
In other news…
I wanted to remind everyone that I’m on Twitter.
Sign up…follow me. And say hi.
It’s easier for me to post here and there from my iphone if I’m in bed for my back. Or with the kids somewhere.
Typing on the computer is still too painful. So if you’d like updates on things…Twitter’s the place to go.
Next…
As you guys know…we have books on Amazon.
If you’ve purchased the books. From me, from the store, anywhere…
Please leave us some feedback on Amazon…and really ANYWHERE you see our books. It helps other readers or WOULD BE READERS to get an idea of what the story’s like.
I know I personally love reading people’s comments on something I plan to buy. And for better or worse…even if you hate my books. I want people to know. It’s only fair.
So click those links on the right side of the page for Amazon and leave some comments.
And finally…
Thanks again for your love and support. I’m working hard at getting better. Lots of Physical Therapy. Lots of good eating. Lots of bed rest.
I will be back in full form very soon. IN the meanwhile…thanks for stopping by.

Hmm… I wonder if I’m the first person to comment on this. I have to say that I really enjoy these making of pages. Somehow I always liked the sketches of the characters more than the actual character designs themselves in the comic. Possibly because they’re more mainstream.
I don’t plan to go on Twitter, since I don’t see the point. But I will keep on commenting here, as often as I have time.
Take care and take your time recovering!
Haha… love Kiwi’s 3rd “Quizzical” look.
Happy April Fool’s Day!
Today’s the first day I manage to visit your page this week – work, work, work.
Although I’m looking forward to chapter 14, I really like the making of pages and the insight in the working processes they provide. Plus, I’m a sucker for sketches and scribbles!
Thank you for posting them.
All the best, get well soon,
KJ
We all need dialogue to thicken the plot! Knead thoroughly, cut out with choice cookie cutters, and back at 950 degrees for 2739 hours. Voila! great recipe for drama, action, romance, and just plain fun!
Hey, I just read that TFBW got flooded (2½ foot/450 mm rain in 24 hours!). Probably no electricity, that’s probably why the forum is down. If you read this – I hope you are all right man!
I just started following you on Twitter– unfortunately, they can’t send updates to my phone, so I’m pretty much in the dark on that one…
Also, I’m sure Chapter 14 will be every bit as amazing as Chapter 13!
Yes, I love all the sketches of Kiwi’s different facial expressions. They’re too fun!
Tying up loose ends makes for a good read too! So, no worries, I’m sure you’ll have plenty of action for us in the future. ;-D
*sigh* I guess I need to sign up for Twitter. I really hadn’t wanted to as I’m already on Facebook and Xanga, but so many of my fave artists are on Twitter now, I suppose I’ll cave and sign up. lol!!
I love these design pages. The sketches are so awesome. <3 I love the page in the top left corner… I don’t know why. He looks like he should be in a 2D animated movie.
Those Kiwi sketches are too cute! Is there a chance we can get a bigger version of those?
Also that got me to thinking that there was very little Kiwi in the last chapter. I hope we get to see more of her in the next!
These character pages rock! 🙂 Too cool! 😀
I’m already following you on twitter, Scott. I read every post but I don’t reply much ’cause I figure you must get about 600 replies for every post…
its like a cross between Treasure planet and The Quest for Excalibur :/ i can’t spell. I hope you are feeling better Scott! ^^
i’m glad your starting to feel better your in my prayers

I found the 8th issue in my LCS!
Unfortunatly, I didn’t have any money on me to get it…but in the short time I have back home, I am definatly going to go back and get it. It’s the least I can do for this quality entertainment day after day.
Get well soon, Scott.
Hey Scott –
I hope the break is doing you good! I don’t know if I’m ready to get caught up in twittering, but I do try to stop by here frequently, click on the ads, and catch up.
As per your request I’ve just written a review for Book 3 over at Amazon. It should be up in a couple of days.
Take your time, get better, and don’t forget to enjoy spring coming around again. The snows have melted up here, the robins are chasing each other around the lawn and the spring flowers are popping up.
Take care!
Hey Scott,
I really like the Arvamas scetch and Kiwi and the cyclops giant looks so great! Im not so enthousiastic about your elf drawings…they look a little stiff to me esspecially the one holding the spear, wich looks a bit thin for his hand or his hand is to quite right in that place.. but that’s just my humble opinion…
cheers! And keep up the good work! Really enjoy reading dreamland
excuse my poor english, that’s not so good..
Sir Scott (since that’s what you want to be called, haha) Thank you for answering my question on the other page, and I’m glad I wasn’t the only one that was wondering what the animal was on Orion’s head. These making-of pages are great! And just in time for you to take a break. I hope you are feeling a bit better, at least. 🙂 Take care!
Thank you all.
Chapter 14 is coming along nicely.
And the doctor is lowering the blood pressure medicine.
Yay.
Things are starting to get a little better.
Have a great day.
Scott
“And the doctor is lowering the blood pressure medicine.

Thank God!
I’ve caught up…. not sure whether to b happy or sad. Awesome comic! I’ve made it mandatory reading for my niece and nephew. looking foward to future updates!
I start physical therapy again tomorrow, Scott. We can be PT buddies. I’m glad you’re working on getting better. Been following you on twitter for a bit now. Enjoy your time off and your writing.
As both a writer and a reader, even though I don’t always look forward to parts of stories that are dialogue-heavy, I always end up enjoying them a great deal and find them to be necessary for a story. It’s especially great when you see the fruits of your labors coming together, and that seems to happen far more often in well-written dialogue rather than any action sequences. Long story short, I’m already looking forward to the next chapter 🙂
Well, I’m glad that you had such a bountiful time at the MTAC, Scott! I hope that you took care of yourself while you were there, and made lots of new friends.
I look forward to Chapter 14, and more of the graphic novels, but not before you are back in good health. Your little hiatus has allowed me to read over the story from the start a second and third time, and it gets better each time. Take as much time as you need, I’ll be waiting…
