Here's a little sneak preview of Vic 'Iddstar' Hill's illustration-in-progress of the first scene of Time's Fool.

I've known Vic's art for a good while now, and it was her expressive lines and clean style I was imagining when writing that fraught and youthful scene in the union bar. She has absolutely captured the expression on Sophia's face.

A wallpaper style download of this will be made available to all subscribers when Time's Fool hits 25% funded. The final picture will indeed show all four of the young friends, and be in full colour.

However, while a download is all well and good, you can also get one a limited number of art prints of the image. Again in full colour, and A4 size, these will be signed by both of us and numbered. They will only be available to people who pick them as a reward, and when they have gone there will be no more of them. Ever.

As such, they are an absolutely irreplacable part of the making of this book, so do not miss your chance to get one of these.
