My First Fan Art

It doesn't get better than this!

Fan art is totally a thing. The documentary The People vs. George Lucas is about 80% art by the fans who love, hate, or love-to-hate Star Wars. Authors also get fan art from time to time, and I’ve always been stunned/jealous of any writer whose readers who were so moved by their experience that they had to express it and share it.

Until today.

Abby, age 11, drew this image of Aubrey Hartmann from THE CLOCKWORK DETECTIVE, and I haven’t touched the floor since I saw it. It’s just about the best thing I’ve ever seen. The dear steampunk constable has never looked better!

This has everything, right down to Aubrey’s cane!

My first fan art is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen.

Thank you Abby Prewitt, age 11. Thank you so much! You’ve made my entire month!
