Preliminaries
Hi there!
So this is book 2, hooray! I wanted to mention that before I introduce the new characters, that this installment will have trigger warnings at the beginning of sensitive chapters. This one definitely takes a darker turn, so please be kind to yourself and take note of them. I don't put them there for fun!
Enough about that, though. Our new characters are:
Holliday Grainger as Venetia Sittingbourne
Alexandra Dowling as Lady Diana Bracknell
Jodie Turner-Smith as Madame Chouette
Harry Hadden-Paton (surprise!) as Denzel Coyle
Jude Hill as (young) Miles
Hi rockpaperscribbles,
I just finished reading your story Evil In the Shadows (The Canterbury Tales, Series 2) and I loved it so much. Your writing is amazing, and I kept thinking how cool it would look as a comic.
I really loved the scene in Chapter 1 (Preliminaries) on Christmas Eve 1926, when two displaced children a gravely injured boy and a mute girl arrive at Lord Canterbury’s doorstep. The visuals of the snowy night, the children shivering on the doorstep, and Canterbury’s moral conflict as he takes on the case are ideal for comic panels, capturing both the emotional depth and the mystery. Another moment that stood out is the exploration of Saint Pancras’s Children’s Home in later chapters, where the haunting stories of missing children and ominous secrets unfold. The dark, gothic atmosphere and the gradual uncovering of the truth would translate beautifully into a suspenseful comic narrative with moody visuals. I’m a commissioned artist, and I’d love to draw your story into a comic/manga. No pressure though.I just think your work would look awesome in comic form.
You can check out some of my recent work on my DeviantArt (Username – Ev3Verse). If you’re interested, please message me on Discord (Username – Eve_Verse) so we can bring the story to life visually. I'll be waiting to hear from you!
Regards,
Evee
