first 10



So, I posted the first two pages, here's the rest of the 8.
Cubby's friends go on their family vacation and she is expecting the same with hers. I wanted
to delineate the value of "being together" which, as the story progresses becomes the inciting
incident for Cubby to embark on her quest: to heal her broken family. It is a big task, maybe somewhat pretentious as she quickly becomes overwhelmed and it pushes her to make choices until she has to decide which is more important. Her own self or her family.

But I wanted to tell a story about courage and heart, almost a David and Goliath story.
There are times when we feel we are so small yet there is that undying spark in us that can and will
push us forward, throw that last punch, take that last step, or maybe...ultimately sacrifice
ourselves because, yeah, there's something bigger than just "me."
