When the Stars Fall Fan Art

I hope you all had a merry Christmas and that this holiday season is finding you well.  As for things happening in my writerly world, quite a bit is going on.  My beta reader, Carly, is nearly done reading When the Stars Fall and I'm making my last few rounds of edits.  I'm adding scenes and fixing character development- it's great.  I hope to have this ready before spring break, but we'll see how long this whole process takes.

As of today, I have passed 67 likes on my facebook page, www.facebook.com/MichailaCurtis.  Before break, I was sitting at about 50, so it's been exciting there.

I also got my very first fan art, courtesy of my wonderful beta reader Carly.  She's drawn Halyn in her coronation dress and Halyn and Esteban being adorable with their Carys marks.

 

Compared to my attempts of visualizing my characters...they're even lovelier       
The outfits the Keidreians put them in immediately...

...and then force them to change into training outfits only a few hours later...

And then my attempt at coronation clothes (which isn't half as pretty as Carly's sparkly starry dress up there...but here's for comparison)

 

Oh, yeah.  I cheated with a doll maker.  I'm horrible at drawing.   But this helps me picture my characters better.  And also is a great form of procrastination.

Here's another one of Esteban's outfits...(he's special-he gets four pictures.  I had to even out the one Carly did of just Halyn somehow...no, I'm kidding.  This is just Esteban when he's older.)

cute, isn't he?

Well, that's all I've got for today.  Thanks everyone!
