For starters...

Ties is the story of a downtrodden cockroach marionette and his struggle for freedom from his violent, claustrophobic partnership with 'The Puppeteer', his cruel and controlling master.

It's about a lot of things incidentally - growing up, creativity, identity, courage, domestic violence - but mostly, I just want to tell an engaging story in an original way that's at turns sad, funny, scary, exciting, uplifting and creates a real sense of empathy with the protagonist.

Along with filling in some background that led up to this point, I'll be sharing my progress over the remaining duration of the project; both the practicalities of getting it done and some of the highs, lows, hahas and boohoos that this is bound to entail. Right now, it feels very exciting and also rather daunting. Well, actually, it's mostly just daunting... but I am pretty excited about it as well.
