This is my first sketch of the incredibly handsome, and villainous, Ned from my novel Souls Triumphant.  This character is one of my all-time favorites, and I’m not really sure what that says about me.  He was originally conceived for a short story back in my creative writing class at Illinois State University.  These notes are from the 1998 journal I used in the class to flesh out ideas.

P.S.  If you look very closely at the drawing, you’ll see a little happy face my instructor made in regards to Ned’s appearance.
