Over the Abyss

---

"Man is a rope, tied between beast and overman — a rope over an abyss. A dangerous across, a dangerous on-the-way, a dangerous looking-back, a dangerous shuddering and stopping.
What is great in man is that he is a bridge and not an end: what can be loved in man is that he is an overture
and a going under."
~ Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

For those of you who don't know — and though my dA page may seem to point otherwise — I'm primarily a writer, and I've been dealing with a block for quite some time now. Well, that is, at least until 3 days ago.

I wrote this story and made this booklet as a birthday present for a dear friend. Thank Cow she liked it! =]

• The booklet is made of a red pasteboard cover and recicled aged paper for the internal pages. Everything is laser printed.


• The shortstory is the bittersweet tale of a girl who throws herself off a building, told only through moments in her life when she had her feet off the ground. Maybe someday I'll translate it.

I'm sure this deviation won't get lots of activity, but I had to document my first drawing and first story of 2012. =]

You can see a close up of the rough art I used for the cover here!
