My first graphic novel, “... Or Die Trying,” was published in 2010. It is a fantasy story about the women of a village who awake to find their men missing and their village on fire. They notice that none of their men’s weapons were touched; and, there were no signs of a struggle. Four of the women band together and vow to find their men, bring them home, or die trying. Along the quest, they come across unexpected obstacles, as well as unexpected assistance.

This was my first venture into the fantasy graphic novel world. To produce my illustrations I use DAZ3D software. It is a free product which can be found at DAZ3D.com. With a little time and practice I found that I can create credible illustrations to go along with my story telling.

Here are some of the scenes from “... Or Die Trying.”
