This is the latest of many things I have going "on the side"...A commission to illustrate a comics story written by my dear friend  jazzfoxrules,to whom I have awarded the title of "Ace and Queenie's #1 fan",because she truly is. You may remember that I came across fanart she had done of A & Q quite by accident,well that was one of the happiest accidents I've ever had. Jazz's friendship has been a great source of comfort and inspiration to me.She continually offers me wonderful and clever ideas and suggestions for A & Q,and I'm still amazed that my little comic series has touched someone to that extent. "Shut-in" is the story of a lonely young Woman trying to recover from a leg injury in the midst of a sweltering heat wave.She feels abandoned by everyone close to her,especially the most important person in her life.What she does not know is that this night will see her plunged into a terrifying ordeal. By the way,Jazz's story was inspired by a classic Hollywood thriller-can you guess which one ? Story and characters c. Jasmine Smith. All rights reserved.
