After another restless night, Alexand was woken by what she believes to be the ghost of her friend Baio-Yujia Sun. Unable to sleep, she retreats to the one person (Katherine De Somme) she hopes could help her find out the cause of the apparent haunting, or at lease empathise with her nightmares. This story is dedicated to everyone who has followed, supported me, commented on, shared thoughts, liked, read this series, critiqued, re-blogged, awarded, made friends (and on occasion fallen in love) with the characters, over the past three years. Without you I’d be writing to and drawing at imaginary people. You help to keep these stories alive and encourage me to one day get the first manuscript published. Thank you, without you, my characters are ghosts inside my head, scribbled on paper. (This story follows Baio-Yujia’s Ghost Part 1.) CLICK HERE for next chronological story.

I so enjoy your stories and art…thank you for sharing them.
Thank you for reading them!
You show Alexand’s feeling of “barely”-repressed passion for Katherine and eagerness to jump inside her mind (and heart) so brilliantly.
Thanks Vera, I really enjoy writing stories for Alex and Katherine, I’m so glad you like them, and that Alexand’s attempt at repressing her feelings is taken as quite a sweet act. I find her attempts endearing and I love the way Katherine is able to foil her so effortlessly in these early stages of their relationship.
Love this! you are truly brilliant, your writing, the story board, your illustrations! 🙂
Thank you so much, it means a lot to me, especially on this 3 year anniversary! Glad you’re enjoying the series.
Those eyes. They almost seem to follow you! As always, incredible.
Thanks Ionia, yes Katherine is quite striking! (although she has no idea 🙂 ) Glad you enjoyed this story.
These stories – this art – should be published and seen by a world larger than our fortunate little club. Excellent as ever!
I’m fortunate to have you all here with me, Frederick. Thank you so much.
I really enjoyed this one, it illustrated very well the clash between the creative and the scientific, between dream and reality. A subject that I find very interesting. It also very brilliantly poses the question of whether there is any difference between dreaming and seeing ghosts. On to Part one.
Hi, yes I can see that scientific, inquisitive element in your writing too, which incidentally I’m enjoying reading each week. I love juxtaposing Alex’s emotionality and creativity with Katherine’s more methodical scientific thought processes. Somehow they compliment each other, and in their future, complete each other. Thanks for reading. I hope you enjoyed part one too!
You’re such a talent. I enjoyed it again, like always 🙂
Thank you so much, I’m glad you enjoyed reading this anniversary story, it means a lot that you take time to visit.
I love alex and katherine! always look forward to their stories…
Thank you, Apurva, I love writing for them too and always get excited when I release a story involving them. (The next few issues feature Katherine and Alex.)
that’s great! can’t wait! 🙂
I’m digging this
Thanks Joel!
Such evocative drawings, love!
Best,
Ana
Thanks Ana!
Thank you for your wonderful stories. I love the dialogue — very natural and expressive.
Thanks for your support each week, Lee, I appreciate it so much. Cheryl
Hi, Cheryl! This is such a great love story – it’s great to be able to dip back into it – after having read the previous issues – there are all sorts of interesting tensions from knowing certain things about Alexand and Katherine’s futures and pasts. Your writing is so rich (and the drawings are beautiful and tender as always). Plus, I like your dedication:)
Thanks Richard, I’m so glad you’re here with me and that jumping through time is an exciting experience rather than disorientating. I see these stories a bit like memories, (or indeed stories about loved ones we’ve heard out of order. We know our friends and family in their present tense and usually find out about events in their past in little snippets throughout the years we know them) Stories don’t necessarily come in order, we can find meaning by connecting strings of events together, regardless of their order, and I’m thankful for the complexity of the human brain. When I started this three years ago I had no idea about how much support I’d receive. I’m very lucky! I love the fact that you already know almost as much as I do about Katherine and Alexand’s love story and that you are open to being taken to any place or time.
Such great stories and drawings! You are very talented. And thank you for following us at Redo You! Take care.
Jeff
You’re very welcome Jeff and thank you so much! Cheryl
We’ll be talking again soon. Have a super day!
Jeff
Thanks and you too!
Katherine is still my favourite character, but this ghost is intriguing.
Katherine says “Thank you, Helena” although she’s so modest she isn’t able to figure out why you like her more than any of the others, (even though I love her too more than most and have a million reasons for liking Kat) but she is VERY pleased!! And thanks also Helena for being a part of this three year anniversary celebration I’m having for this story. I appreciate it.
Thanks Anthony!
Glad to be a follower of your blog! You have an incredible gift.
You don’t know how much it means to me that you think this way about my work. Thank you so much L.
You know you are an absolute jewel, don’t you? Well, in case you don’t because of your humble nature, I am telling you: You are an absolute jewel. I love your artwork and I love your stories. When you dedicated part of your great three year work to me, I was and am still so very touched. There is no one that is like you and there never will be. Take care of yourself (remember that) so your soul, imagination and stories can live on for all of us to loose ourselves in. My love to you.
Lee, you just made me cry, (in a happy way) we are all connected and in this short life must give gifts to one another. Kind words and thoughts are some of the greatest gifts I’ve received. Transcending everyday life is a necessity for me and I’m privileged to be able to share my escapism with you and everyone else who reads these stories. Thank you, and love to you also. Cheryl.
browsing here, I got rerouted to your illustrations on Flickr. They are truly stunning! Very expressive. I almost forgot that they are “just” illustrations and that there are written stories behind them…? What, they speak by their own, telling their own story!!!
…so I should not forget to come back here and….read.
Thank you, J, I’m glad you liked the illustrations and you’re welcome to read the stories any time. I’m enjoying your posts about NY art btw. Good to meet you, Cheryl
