A Hey Josh Introduction: Comic Writer “Filly” Boone
Good evening, young human! There’s someone I’d like you to meet. A few weeks ago I met a talented young female writer/comic artist who goes by the name of “Filly” Boone. When I met her, she was a bit nervous to share her work, but, seriously, she has nothing to worry about: I think she’s rad.
It’s clear to me the girl has a lot of talent and, from the looks of things, she’s just getting warmed up. I think we’ll see some cool things from this one, so keep your eye on her. Right now, she’s working on a sci-fi series called The Selection about…well, I’ll let her tell you:
“Out among the galaxies of the universe, on the planet Ambivia, it’s hard to live a common life—especially if the entire world despises you. An immigrant Royal named Lord Federico and his newly ’selected’ wife face the many challenges inherent to living at the top. As troubles brew, reality and faith create bigger conflicts than they imagined. When deeper forces begin to reveal themselves, life doesn’t become any easier…not even in an alien world.
“The Selection was inspired by nothing more than a dream and the everyday struggles between our own way and the way of one’s faith…with a lot of laughs thrown in! With the love of friends, family, and fellow supporters, this story has only just begun. And I don’t plan on stopping any time soon!”
If you’d like even MORE info, she put together this nifty little FAQ. Here’s how the story begins…
Now, go ahead: dive in and read the whole series (thus far), or check out her entire gallery over at DeviantArt.
Cool, huh? Aren’t you glad you met?
Keep it up, “Filly”!
