Description
For those of you out there watching that have read my fictionpress story: Shores of an Ocean Fantasy; you finally see what Marie and Dorian look like!Yay! It's about time, huh? ^_^
So here we are, the two main characters Marie and Dorian. What is Dorian doing with his fin? ... I don't know...
probably just being cute. He's good at that. For those that have no idea what I'm talking about, here's the link:[link]
Painted in Watercolor and I used some Gouache for Dorian's tail.

Adorable! What's Dorian doing with his tail tho? (And how did he get so far away from the water) xD

Honestly, when I painted this, it was the first time I had ever painted these two characters in general and I just wanted it to be cute. Lol. There is so much about this image that doesn't make sense! XD

Yup, they're cute alright, and if you were going for an endearingly goofy look for Dorian, you did it well :3
And hmm, perhaps he like, flopped his way over there like seals do on land? Haha, that would have been a sight XD

It's cute...but it's a bad disappointing that the link to read said story does not...lead to a story.
However, it was surprising to hear it became a book.

Unfortunately, someone had stolen that draft of the story and so I removed it to prevent it from happening again. Its all good though now because its published and available to the public now
You can find it at these locations:

I found your story in a pure coincidence and I have admit that I have a mixed feelings about it. I can't opt myself - it's still a story or just turned into book?
And it has that sense of humor I love

I'm glad you like the sense of humor to it. There's going to be a lot of improvements on the writings back in 2006 and so forth so everything comes together nicely. I intend to have it turned into a book. So be on the look out for my spaz announcement when I hear from a literary agent. Of course I have to fully finish it first lol.
Happy reading! ^_^

Well, I've just didn't slept tonight trying to finish it 
I'm waiting for end
π: 0 β©: 1
Wow a lot of people are losing sleep over this story. Lol I'm causing insomnia lol I'm glad you liked the the middle chapters, actually it wasn't until the middle when I really started getting serious about the story. No fear, the other stuff will be fixed ^_^
Who's your fav character?
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, I don't have insomnia. I simply sleep for 1-2 hours a day. It's normal for me to do so. Plus I have a break from your story since 11:30 PM, when "L. A. Confidential" starts in TV, then they were playing "Dog Soldiers", so I stay and watched. When I found out at some point that it's 3:40 AM and I have only 6 chapters till end, I stayed.
Hmm... for long time it was Steph
As always, I'm sorry for my extermaly poor English

Ah, that's very good to know. Thank you. ^_^ And no worries about your English skills. Mine are not that great either but that's what editors are for. ^_^ Thank you lots for your input, it has helped me a lot.

Now all I can do is wait for next chapters
π: 0 β©: 1
It will be worth the wait ^_^

I hope so - the 42-44 chapters put me somehow in doubt why I'm still reading this. Probably the biggest problem with current chapters is that they are entirely underwater, but wrote in such way that you simply can't figure it out not focusing on fact that you know the place of action from past chapters
π: 0 β©: 1
Ah so I need to reestablish their location?
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, it's quite quirky when you read, read and read and at some point you suddenly recall that they are swimming or it's mentioned, when you almost have forgotten where the hell the whole thing is happening.

Lol thank you I'll keep that in mind when I edit this thing.

Just the fact how swiftly talking was introduced makes it bizarre

Yay! I love your story^^ I feel so behind, I didn't realize it was updated until today. Dorian looks almost exactly as I pictured him, that's awesome.^^

Thanks, I'm glad you like it. I had gone through the story and was like, I didn't officially draw a picture of the two so here they are! ^_^
Hopefully, I'll get another chapter up soon. Things have been busy here. But soon! Soon the next chapter shall be up.

I understand^^ When I actually do have free time, I play guitar hero instead of writing or reading something like I aught to. . .
π: 0 β©: 1
I know! Yay! Guitar Hero! I went out and bought GH3 immediately and was all set to play straight through expert first thing and get to that Metallica song.....but I didn't make it..v.v...I was so shocked. FAIL? WHAT? Second to last set, I just got hung up and couldn't do it....So in order to get to Metallica I had to play through the whole thing again on hard >.<...Must practice....SEE? THIS is why I don't get my reading and writing done. I'm obsessed. What about you?
π: 0 β©: 1
Well I work almost every evening but I am home by myself during the day cause the rest of my family either is at work or school so it would be easier for me to do some writing. However, something usually comes up like a friend wanting to stop by so I don't get anything done and I have to leave for work. T.T I'm working on it little by little though.
