SO...one of my creative projects I'm sorta working on right now is writing and illustrating a childrens' book.
This is the problem....I just want to get started straight on the drawings, but I'm not letting myself start until I've
got the whole story done. If I don't, then I probably won't ever finish this.
So here it goes.
Leeroye Buhgee;
the cleverest boy in all of kuntree
was often found in a great deal of roguery.
He had a habit he could not shake.
It was that horrible, terrible biting mistake!
A dog here, a cat there,
even Frankee's underwear!
Leeroye would not stop, no not even for his mother.
He gnawed and he gnashed his very own brother!
One day out on a teeth snapping spree,
he spotted an old lady under a tree.
"She looks like a good bite of fun!
Lets see how far I can make her run!"
He approached her with his most charming smile
she not knowing his plans to beguile.
"Hello young sir." she said with a nod
"good afternoon" replied the fraud.
Leeroye bared his teeth with glee,
ready to bite just below the knee.
The old lady suddenly withdrew,
cursing Buhgee "you little fool!"
"Your gnawing and gnashing has got to stop;
I curse your teeth to dislodge with a pop!"
With that exclamation the hag dissapeared,
leaving Leeroye very much afeared.
so, obviously its not finished yet. I want to write this in a way that I can do multiple stories about Leeroye's misadventures as he learns good manners....bitting isnt nice, neither is spitting on your neighbors dog. hmmm idea......
So yeah. this actually all started with a foam cup on my lunch break at work a few weeks ago.
I drew a mushroom....which lead to a mushroom house....
and of course a mushroom house must have strange bug like creatures living in it.
and then....the birth of Mr. Dahdee and Mrs Mawmee Buhgee and their sons Leeroye and Joeee. (who might end up being Frankee)
