Status Update

Sorry, ye all XP

• I'm working a lot for an exposition I have in April. About 80% of the art that will be sold there is Forever Young Art! And of course I'll bring the books along :)
• I haven't been able to write for a loooooong time, but I'm currently working on Grasshopper's (Art completed) and Matsuru's References.
  
• New art:
• http://kittyocean.deviantart.com/art/Mumea-Version-2-143388026 -- a new test of Mumea
• http://kittyocean.deviantart.com/art/FY-Reference-Kai-143482026 -- Kai's reference

That was about it. Sorry, things are slow at the moment. But, like said before: if you have a million or so to spare, I'll be able to spend time on FY non-stop!

I'll try to get back here XD Sorry!

The New Dorothy by ~kittyocean on deviantART

Not yet updated?

But already online! Book 2 is about to be released (so exciting!), but here you can watch some drawings I made and Gift Art I got! Isn't that amazing!

Yeah, things are slow at the moment. But that's because book 2 is coming out!!

Site updated!

I completely forgot to tell I updated the website http://foreveryoung.keep-in-mind.nl on the 3rd of june. O.o Sorry! I updated all the profiles from the entire Eternity series!

What else? Well, I hope to write a new episode sunday. And no worries, episode 263 is no longer the latest one!

Almost!

Today I finished episode 263, meaning I reached almost 51% of book 4! So much has been written since the beginning of my 3 week vacation and today was the top! 5 episodes, an entire (yet small XD) arc was both started and finished today. Never before have I written so much on one day!

263 is a sad one; it almost made me cry myself! It adds a lot more depth to Ao, as it actually mostly revolves around him this time. Sushi is important too, but not as important as Ao. Mah-Lin barely appears and neither does Naraku XP. However, they all make a shocking discovery! Le gasp!

Okay, that last part ruined the mood XD Sorry. It's really a sad ending. Or should I say beginning?

At this moment, I don't know yet how to fill the following chapters, so I might not write tomorrow. Perhaps I use the time to re-do the character pages, or, what would be even more amazing: do the other pages from the Studio Tsunami site!

Or maybe draw those entrance pictures/splash images I've been wanting to do. I actually also need a new one for Forever Young's section, so advice is welcome!!

Holy High Ones! Yay!

Yesterday, I wrote 2 Forever Young Book 4 episodes. Today I even wrote 3 episodes! I am so happy and proud; I'm back on my groove! The energy is flowing, the excitement has no end!... I just wished I slept better XD Ai!... Can't have it all!

The website is moved!

The website is moved :) The new adress is http://foreveryoung.keep-in-mind.nl :) Go and look! And please let me know if I missed any broken links.

Website needs to be moved

Geocities will close later this year!
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/geocities/geocities-05.html
Yahoo has decided to close Gecities, which means I will have to find a new host for my Forever Young website. If you know ANY free webhosting that does NOT drown in advertisements, please let me know.

I need to move 3 websites:
- Forever Young Eternity
- Serenay Moon
- Studio Tsunami (personal site)

Why the heck are they doing this??!

Drawing Kimu

And her name is...

Lady of the wind

Continuation

Okay, 4 times is a charm XP

3 times is a charm?

Again?

What the...?

Estimation-prize book 2

Just a short notice:

The estimation-prize for book 2 is known: an estimated maximum prize of 31 euros. It seems like a lot, but book 2 is a lot bigger/thicker and has a longer story. The prize can still drop, but it's best to prepare for the worst ^_^ And if the prize indeed drops, it's only a bonus for us all!

Not much news...

Since the last version is about to be send to the publisher, there isn't much news.

• Yume, Graven and Sute (book 5)
  http://kittyocean.deviantart.com/art/Storytime-114638941
• Fanart of Cecia:
  http://mene.deviantart.com/art/FY-Gryphon-and-Cecia-117341618
• Fanart of Naraku, Ao, Kai, Hane, Rain and Keiran:
  http://acrocat.deviantart.com/art/Go-Naraku-116328414

Maybe these last 2 fanart pieces will inspire you? ;)

Website is updated!

HA! I did it! http://www.geocities.com/foreveryoungeternity/ is finally updated! Let's do a dance together now!

Oh yeah, and I gave the sidebar a different colour. It was poking my eyes out; way too bright!

There it is!

I posted the cover online! Check out: http://kittyocean.deviantart.com/art/Forever-Young-Eternity-2-Cover-113894180 !

I also gathered the art for the update:

• I have about 21 new fanart pieces
• I have about 24 new art pieces by me!
• 2 of the pieces by me are not yet posted on DeviantArt yet, meaning they will most likely stay unique to the site!

No, I didn't do the update yet. Gathering links takes most of the time; now it's only copy-paste and upload... but that will be done soon... soon!!!

Inbetween

A little update, because soon I will post the cover for book 2. Why?

1. The publisher accepted my manuscript. They were quite enthusiastic!
2. I don't need to gather 80 adresses, only 50. And I'm way above that!
3. The contract will be signed really, really soon!
4. The extras are finished; I found back some really old drawing!
5. New art!

• Mizu is added to the evolving image:
  http://kittyocean.deviantart.com/art/From-2008-to-2010-107998278
• Two Weather Fairies (Yndian) are drawn:
  http://kittyocean.deviantart.com/art/Yndian-112737732
• I found back an old drawing made in 2007; for season/book 4:
  http://kittyocean.deviantart.com/art/Found-Back-Season-4-113797436

And I will SO update the website as soon as I can

Updates

I wanted to update the website since I have time to spare, but all my files are on a different computer XD.

1. E-mail gathering is going fine; I'm over 50 now. I still need some more adresses. Cool that some people already pre-ordered!
2. No reply from the publisher yet, but that was to be expected. They get new manuscripts every day!
3. New art!

• Evolving image (new part added each month):
  http://kittyocean.deviantart.com/art/From-2008-to-2010-107998278
• Serena Saichi from Forever Young Sci-Fi:
  http://kittyocean.deviantart.com/art/Warmth-109116194
• A poem:
  http://kittyocean.deviantart.com/art/Forever-Young-109366266

It's a little update, but soon I will update the webpage... and then all this will be added =D And that webpage is soooo overdue!
