Chapter 2 has finally started!! I don't have the updates on the AV Website yet, but all of the new pages can be found here: Advocate Voice's page on CM

Hello everyone! I'm sorry for being absent for so long. I wanted to update everyone on the situation of Advocate Voice. It's still alive, and I still have a passion for completing it. But as you can see... my little baby girl has taken over my life right now, lol. In this picture you can see a pair of adorable Shiro boots that my friend Jenni made for my baby girl. (SHIRO BABY!! You're amazing, Jenni!) Right now my husband and I are also working on his visa to move to the USA, so it's a lot of work filling out papers and organizing the house to go. Hopefully at the end of this year. That will make manga drawing a lot easier, but I have to wait a bit more until my girl is old enough to give me the time to do so. So although I hate putting AV on haitus, I have to keep it that way for at least a few months more.

God's plans are so different from our own, and even if I create plans for my future He can always do something completely unexpected. But my idea for the future, Lord-willing, is to wait to have more kids until I can finish AV and my other project, In Heaven's Eyes. AV actually started in 2004. It would be neat to finish the 2-volume series in 2014. It's hard to believe that I've been with these characters for almost 10 years, it feels like I grew up along side them. My dream is to see this series finished very soon... it's still my passion. So please, don't worry about seeing AV disappear for good. Hopefully, it never will. And if I'm on my deathbed I'll appoint someone else to do it for me... lol, just kidding! But it shows how much I love this story. Just be patient with me and know that sometime, hopefully mid-2013, we'll all be seeing new chapters appearing on the website. That would be wonderful.

Thanks for the support and thanks to those who send me emails! I've been so encouraged by them over the years. Blessings!

Introducing Ely!

This is probably the only picture I'll ever put on AV, but I thought I'd share the reason for the delays. My little bundle of joy. And her kitten XD

Still here!

I apologize for the long waits and inactivity. My little baby girl takes up a lot more free time than I thought! But I'm not complaining, the experience of motherhood is AMAZING. And I'm so very happy. But I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm still alive and slowly working on AV. Slowly is the keyword there. I'm getting parts of chapter 2 done but it will be a while until they're ready to be on the web. Thank you so much for being patient everyone.

Chapter 1 complete!

Hey all! Another quick update to say that chapter 1 is complete and posted on the CM website! It's the same link that I put in the last post. Since I'm almost at my baby's due date I'm afraid that AV will have to go on another short break for a while, until my baby is safely delivered and I can adjust a bit to life as a mother. (So new and exciting!) It may not be until December until I get anything else new up, but I'll try my best to have at least a few new things before Christmas. So please be patient with me, and pray for my hubby and I and our new baby daughter who is due in October!

About this entry's art, it's just a compilation of old art to keep you entertained, lol. Just dreaming about how the book could possibly be when the first volume is finished and printed. That dream is still a long way from being completed, but with 1 chapter done I feel a little closer. Chapter 2 here we come!

Updates!

Just a quick post to share that the manga has been updated on the Christian Manga website! I just haven't been able to use FTP from my home computer to be able to update the website here, but someday soon I hope to be able to do that from a computer in town. Here's the link to the new pages on Christian Manga:

Enjoy!

Problem solved! Get ready!

The problems that I was having with toning and saving are finally solved, so now I can work on AV! Thanks to all who were praying. And expect new things to come! Get ready!

Just to share my happiness, here's a random sketch on the back of one of the pages. Will it ever happen?? Who knows XD
