Hello there!
I'd like to announce this cool new project I've started working on:
The warlock is a peculiar yet very talented man, who once had a beloved wife with whom he shared an estate and a profession. He still resides there, even years after said wife’s mysterious disappearance. Try as he might, he never could dig up the fate that befell his love. So he retreated; closed the doors of his manor and his soul and continued existing, unhappily…barely. Today, he spends the entirety of his days by reading books with tales of romance and bold adventure and … talking with his only friend, a stone statue of a nameless woman, propped up in a broken fountain in his back garden.
One especially melancholy day, he gets the idea of bringing his stony companion to life using his vast knowledge of sorcery, and to his own surprise, succeeds.
The fragmented warlock might not make the best of decisions, his mind addled by years of misery – But YOU get to choose how his story will end.

Thing is, I don't know how many people are actually willing to read an illustrated book (which is what this is, more or less) with only a SINGLE choice given to you at the very end, as to give you the opportunity to see a few different outcomes and choose the one you prefer most - unlike in an actual novel, where you are stuck with a single ending which you may or may not like.
I could make this in to a visual novel with choices sprinkled throughout the tale, but if you ask me, I would much rather do it in the way I've explained above.
However I am open to criticism and ideas, so feel free...
