Uri's Bittersweet Story: On the Wrapper
This is the cover art for my latest short story. I was going to have it be the thumbnail but FA likes to squoosh thumbnails a lot, so I figured it could be its own thing. A good friend called KD Nightstar draws a webcomic called CarryOn. I've talked about the comic (and many other things) on its associated forum so much that she added a character based on me to the strip! Recently she asked if I'd like for Uri, my hyena self, to have a story of his own to tell. It was an opportunity that I gladly accepted! So now we have the tantalizing story that Private Uri is regaling his comrades in the Hyena Brigade with. That full arc as it appears in the comic is already online right now over at Nightstar's website.
This version is called the Director's Cut because it contains everything that couldn't fit into the comic. In other words the typed story, which can be found here, is the high-fidelity version of what appears in CarryOn. I'll be posting the images as well, but you can check it out for yourself if you like. The story starts with this strip and later resumes here after the comic cuts to the perspective of the Duchess. I had a great time collaborating with Nightstar and it was a joy to see my work come alive like this. I hope that you guys enjoy it too!
This story has been nominated for a 2018 Ursa Major Award in the short fiction category! So do me a favor and vote for me! Polls are open now through the end of March.
