There is (was?) an artist named Frederick S. Fudala, somewhere in upstate New York, who (a long time ago) was on deviantart and created this drawing which I “embedded” into “‘Tami Smithers Was Here’” on the writingsofleviticus site. It’s called “Druuna’s Ascent”, a tribute to the graphic novel character created by Paolo Serpieri. As I recall Mr. Fudala’s original comment was: “I picture Druuna, having been stripped by a gang of thugs, escaping by scaling this cliff, only to find herself thrust into yet another peril which she will have to deal with while naked.” It fits in with Tami’s plight in general, and in particular her scaling the cliff to get away from teenage toughs at the end of Part 29 of “‘Tami Smithers Was Here’”. Fred, I’ve been trying to find you for years, please contact me!
I've been adding to and revising “Memos from the Commissar” to where it’s now twice the original length and has more depth. I think I’m finally done with it. (See “Stories” above.) Let me know what you think!
I enjoyed the detached style and perspective of this story, though I'd love to see it fleshed out from the perspective of D. herself. As always the creativity and world building you put in your stories are in a class of their own. Lastly I saw that nod to fans of trimmed and shaved bushes :)
