Howdy Grovers! Here we are with another Spiderforest.com Comic of the Week. You may have noticed I took a week off from the CotW, but that’s because Willow’s Grove was in the spotlight for the week on my fellow Spiderforest pals. We had a large boost in readers for that week and if you are now a Grover from the links to me on those other pages, I welcome you and hope you find Willow’s Grove a comic worthy of a bookmark.

This week, we spotlight the comic Riven Sol by Elaine Corvidae. The comic can be described as science fiction romance meets Lovecraftian horror! Something is wrong on Danforth Research Station. Orphaned children disappear from the slum-like “lowers,” while fearsome masked guards prowl the corridors. Death lurks around every corner, waiting to swallow the unwary. When a mysterious girl named Carter comes to Danforth, it’s up to a boy known only as “Silence” to teach her to survive. But Carter has secrets of her own, and the horror within may be far greater than the horror without.

Elaine suggests new readers start here to get your feet wet with the story arcs. Head on over and give Riven Sol a whirl, you won’t regret it and you’ll also help to support my fellow Spiderforest cartoonists!

Have you ever wondered how the Township of Willow’s Grove was laid out? Perhaps where Max lived or where Cho’s Bar & Grill was? Well, now you can see the first edition street map of Willow’s Grove! Click here to view it. It’s a little rough around the edges, but it will be improved in the second edition. Enjoy!

So I wrote this short story yesterday, my first non WG based writing in years, and am now pondering just how to present it. It is far too short to attempt as a sale in book form, but would still love to find a way to present it to the public. It clocks in at about 3300 words in 11 segments, so it is fairly short…well, duh, Karl, it’s a short story…cackles. Guess I should research the web and see what options I have as far as copyright and all the other nuggets of protecting it as well as testing the market to see how it would sell and at what price.

Let me know whatbyou think, Grovers, in the comment section. Thanks!
