I would love to make writing my career, and truly hope that this web site will help me achieve that goal.

Novel Treatments / Cerebus

Ok,over all this is very nicely done. It's nice to see someone else comfortable enough with dialogue to allow it to tell the story. Some will tear you apart with that.
