My muse is my audience. I have so many ideas in my head that I need to express, and the best reward of that is to see and hear people react to the things I do. It's not praise I look for, but the notion that something might spark or open up in the audience's mind. This is fuel for my fire.
Generally what I have shown on this forum and my blog is going towards a comic book. I assume most people on this forum do not read comics, but that doesn't matter to me - I like to see how ideas are viewed. Hopefully, each one of the WIP shows something towards the themes the finished work will express. For now they appear as a jumble of incomplete and incongruous models. But they will interact and it does mean something, honest. ๐
