Five years have passed since Alexand Merek was sentenced to serve ten years in a military correction facility, for accidentally killing her friend, Baio-Yujia Sun. (See issue 25 and issue 26) When Alexand was seventeen she was selected to work for Dr. Katherine De Somme, a micro biologist and has worked in her laboratory for the past three years. However, Alexand was up late, playing piano in the entertainment bar, celebrating the release of her sister, Heyem and friend Jarad, and has turned up uncharacteristically late to work. Despite this, a friendship and trust has formed between them, allowing Katherine to share a terrible secret with her young cadet, when she eventually arrives. CLICK HERE for next chronological story.

Annnd – my third one of your stories (or incidents…obviously they’re all connected), and I’m hooked. This one (as I’m sure you know) isn’t as self-contained, but no worse for that – I’m left wondering how Katherine got here from having her legs bitten off by a shark; I’m left wondering how Alex’s crush will play out; and I’m really left wondering what’s going on with these patients.
Excuse me, I need to go subscribe to your blog now.
I’m also reading your blog posts, and wish I could join the write a blog a day 2012, like you! (Really can’t lol) How are you getting on with Nano?
Yes, (gets excited as you subscribe, big thank you!) There’s a good way of handling these stories chronologically, (as I know it can be quite disorientating reading them in snippets. (I’m mean, I like to tease readers!) There’s a Story Timeline section at the top of the blog, which helps with continuity. Katherine wasn’t the one who had her legs bitten off, (That was Cordelia “Bizzi” Gray) Cordelia crops up in the second manuscript (I’m attempting to seek publication for manuscript 1. (May take some time) But you find out what happens to Cordelia in manusc 2!
Really good to meet you. Looking forward to blogging with you! 😀

Btw, thanks for stopping by my writing blog!
Thanks Joy, no problem, you have some great advice on your blog, so I’ve subscribed. (The artwork is mine…I like to draw them…I pretend I’m taking photographs lol) Welcome. The title is a reference to accessibility and immortality / mortality, amongst other things.
I love the illustrations!

Very nice. Thank you for stopping by my blog and subscribing. I also have jgsgal.wordpress.com which is my poetry site. Would love your feedback! I love the illustrations with your stories.
Thanks, I visited your site and particularly liked A Box For A Memory. Glad you like the stories. Welcome!
Hi, cheryl
I really really like your illustrations.
It’s more realistic than the comics panel in my blog.
Comics tend to exaggerate human looks.
Especially romance comics,
where every young females are beautiful and have a delicate figure,
while the males are all handsome and have a strong build.
I wonder if you could redone some of your favorites romance comics panel from my blog.
I’d like to see it and post it in my blog!
And thank you for following http://RomansaHarian.wordpress.com

Romansa Harian
Wow. I want to know more.
Thank you!
Your illustrations are W-o-n-d-e-r-f-u-l. (and your prose is, too) If you are on Pinterest, plase find me under same name. I have a pin board there of my late sister’s works I think you would enjoy. 🙂

Wow, you’ve got talent. How long does it take you to finish a drawing?
Thank you, Classicritique, I appreciate that. It depends on the drawing, but the average is a day to two days per drawing.
My gosh, that’s devotion- and speed. I really like your blog. I’ve not seen another like it. 🙂
Thanks for the follow, Cheryl! Your work is beautiful!
Thank you, Sandi!
Hi Cheryl. Thank you for checking out my poem. I have a bunch I want to put up there. I’m looking forward to reading your story, the illustrations are great!
Thank you, I’ll look forward to reading more of your poems, as I really enjoyed, “Something vagrant like the breeze.”
The character of yours that really stood out for me so far is Xan Medani. A very rich character, I really enjoy his nomadic nature and the mystery of his disappearance.
You’re reading the character profiles! Thank you! I’m glad you like Xan, his story is released next Wednesday 4th July. He has a lot of secrets.
Wow! Love your blog – so much to see, so much to read! Thanks for ‘Following’ my blog.
Hi, Patrice, thank you! It’s mutual, as you have some beautiful photography to complement your poetry. I’ll look forward to reading more of your work.

Very good illustrations. Have a great eekend & thanks for visiting my site.

Cheryl, thanks for following my photo blog. I am enjoying your stories!
Thank you, Ron, likewise with your photography, there are some very beautiful landscapes there.
Cheryl, I just noticed that you started following my non-photography blog. If you want to follow the photography, you want http://ronkline.wordpress.com .
You are certainly welcome to follow my other blog but it is mostly politics (I am very left wing) and religion (I am an atheist).
Thanks, Ron. Followed! 😀
Thanks for reading one of my blogs, I read this one and the writing and artwork were spectacular. I will follow your blog and hope you will read more of mine and follow it as well. Best wishes, beebeesworld

Cheryl – Thank you for following my *http://echoesfromemptiness.com* blog and opening up your wondrous world of drawings and writing for me.
I am taking off my shoes and stepping in …
Hi Miriam! You’re very welcome as there are some very inspiring quotes and poems on your blog, which I’m thoroughly enjoying reading. Thank you for exploring my stories too. It’s good to meet you.

It’s good to meet you, Rita, and thank you!
Wow, Cheryl, you’re utterly brilliant. I just sat in awe in front of my computer staring in amazement at your beautiful words and illustrations. I wish you so much success now and in the future. Thank you for liking my post ‘Inner time is limitless’ and following my blog. I’m following you now and life just got even better 🙂 Have a beautiful day. Michele
Hi, Michele, thank you! I’m glad you like the stories, as I’ve been taking a lot of time reading your blog. Other people should go and read it, as it deals with a lot of very complex issues, politically. (Oh and sorry for spelling your name wrong when I commented on a poem on your site. I’ve had a bit too much caffeine! lol.) 😀
Dear Cheryl, I very much appreciate you taking the time to read my blog. I’ve had my eyes (and my heart) opened wide since I started working in Sierra Leone two years ago. I hesitate to use the well-worn quote, “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger…” but that’s where I am at the moment and writing is the antidote to the moments of crushing despair. Again, I wish you all the best. Michele (don’t worry about the spelling, happens all the time :-).
Your writing and art are spectacular-thanks for following my blog as well! beebee

Hi Linda. It’s really good to meet another artist / writer. I’m enjoying browsing your site, and love schizoscape-ltownsdin. (The mix between fluid and concrete, and also the rich colours attracted me to the painting immediately)
Catchy title, interesting pictoral illustrations, and with a writing display like yours, I wonder why you re following my humble blog.
While you answer, let me go sign up with your blog!
Hi, Devine! Your reasons for writing are similar to mine, from what I’ve read of your work so far. I’m quoting from you here, “My wish is to help people see other worlds as real as their own world.” And that comes across in your poetry. You have an addictive blog, and I’m glad I found it! Glad you stopped by to visit mine too! Cheryl
I am really humbled. Thanks for checking out my blog.

Yes, I have already enjoyed sampling your writing tonight Cheryl and thanks for your kind words regarding my art, I must get back to doing some more I think. However, enough about mine, I would really like to say to you how much the writing you post is given this amazing depth by your characters, they seem to have a real human spirit enclosed within them. There is a synergy between the visual and the written which you use so well. I like to think I have empathy hear but in my case I use sound. I’m so glad I encountered your creativity. Best wishes. Neil
Thank you, that means a lot. 😀 Music and art both have the capacity to produce powerful emotions and empathy in listeners and readers alike.

Wow! I am very impressed by your versatility – beautiful drawings. Fantastic names, BTW, and how do you keep track of all these interwoven story lines?.
Hi Anna, thank you and good to meet you. I practically live in this world, it’s been with me for over 20 years and I’ve only recently been able to write and illustrate it in this way, so it’s really 2 decades worth of pent up stories.
Thanks for stopping by my very humble blog ( now that I have seen yours!) Fantastic drawings, incredibly evocative. Will return to read further. Dead impressed, beginning to wonder whether to pursue a publisher rather than just put it as you do! Wonderful independence, you obviously know and value your talent, as you should!
You’re welcome, Philippa and thank you for passing through here too, I appreciate it. Cheryl
What a completely awesome way of getting your words/illustrations out. Love it! I happened on part three but am going to come back when I have more time and start at the beginning.

The book I will write will definetly have them, you are an inspiration, thank you!-Loretta

My dear Cheryl Moore,
I appreciate your sketches. One of the best, seen on the blogs.
I fancy myself as an artist. Five years in Sir J J School of Art, Bombay, India and several years in Advertising, Marketing, I feel bit jaded, Oops, faded.
No money in illustration world. More supply than demand.
Keep the good work and forget about making money.
…and I am Sid Harth@elcidharth.com
Hi Sid, good to meet you, no there’s no money in this kind of escapism as yet, but hope is a very powerful delusion. I’ll take fantasy over reality as compensation! I’d love to see your artwork some time. Cheryl
Crisp scene setting, immediate connection to character. Excellent writing.
Thank you, Robynn! 😀

Strange and engrossing at once, drawing me into the story quickly… I’m going to have to come back and start from the beginning as soon as I get more time!
That means a lot, thank you, Erma. Glad you like what you’ve read so far. Cheryl
Thank you Cheryl for visiting my blog. Your site is very unique and interesting. Great art work too. Good luck with your writing. I like the story.
You’re welcome, I’m enjoying reading your poetry. Thank you for visiting here and good luck with your writing in the future too. Cheryl
Thank you for following my blog. I hope you found it somewhat entertaining. I am going to take a look at yours and will keep in touch. Thank you again. Love the artwork.
You’re welcome and thank you too!
Hi Cheryl, your blog is really great and unusual! Thank you for following mine x
Thank you, and you too! 🙂
Yours is a great blog to dip into to read a short piece of extremely well-written prose. I’m just wondering how much of your ms you should post if you are looking for a publisher. I’m sure you know what you’re about though.
Hi Jane, thank you. All these stories are set before the manuscript and although are related to, the ms remains un tainted, hopefully. It’s experimental but will hopefully tie together in the future. Thank you, I appreciate it. Cheryl
hi Cheryl, thank you for visiting and following my blog (wordjotter). Your work is insightful and your illustrations are wonderful.I look forward to reading more 🙂
You’re welcome, and thank you too. Good luck with publishing your novel. Cheryl 🙂
Thanks for stopping on me. Nice stories and caricatures.
You’re welcome and thank you too 🙂
Thanks for taking a look at my poem, Cheryl. Intriguing angles you have in your stories and characters, and those illustrations meld perfectly. Well done, love it. Stephen
Good to meet you Stephen, you’re welcome and thank you! Cheryl
Thanks for liking my blog. Actually a big thanks because it made me discover yours. I think you are a creative genius!
You’re welcome, Jan and thank you, that’s a big complement, and means a lot that you took the time to visit. Cheryl
I haven’t read everything yet, but I do wonder when you are going to start the novel, or have you already? My first one is being published this summer.
Good luck with I Call Myself EarthGirl, great title btw, and congrats on getting through the formatting process, that sounded very complicated!!
Thanks for the good luck wishes. I think promoting it will be much harder than writing it was! The formatting was supposed to be relatively simple. I don’t know whether it is me, or WORD, or my computer, but I found it challenging, to say the least!
No it’s not you, I’ve also had formatting problems with word.
Good to know I am not the only one…I guess. Maybe microsoft should fix it!
Thank you for the recent “LIKE” and follow of my blog. I followed back. Sincere regards and Best Wishes. Tim Desmond
And you too Tim. Best wishes Cheryl.
Muchas gracias for the follow Cheryl. Your work here is fantastic.
Thank you, Cheryl, for wanting to follow my blog. Your pictures are extraordinary, and I found the story intriguing but would need to read more of it to get the whole picture. Keep up the good work.
Hi Kate, good to meet you too, and thank you, I appreciate it. Cheryl
Your characters have so much sensuality!
Thank you 🙂
Jeez, I am awestruck! I don’t really have time to read this massive work, but am impressed by its existence, and the huge cast of characters–did you draw them all yourself?–and the imagination required to write such a fantasy. Keep it up! One day I’ll try to read more of it.
Thank you, I’m glad you like it, yes they’re my drawings 🙂
