There are ideas that stick out in your mind so clearly that you must put them down on paper or visualize them in some form lest they vanish into thin air. Sometimes it is concepts or plotlines that strike me suddenly that immediately make everything else I'm working on with Taylor's series fall into place. This concept art piece is so far into the future, towards the end of her book series, that I cannot really describe what's in the picture. How they got here, why they're together and what certain details mean. None of it I can really delve into without spoilering something big. So rest assured, this is nothing but a sneak peek into the potential scope of where I plan to take Taylor's series. As we all know, this may not exactly happen as depicted. Concept pieces are just that - ideas for future works that may or may not reflect the original vision. For now, enjoy a peek of what might be.
As a writer, my job is to elicit emotion from readers. To bring them a story that'll stick with them long after it is over and they think upon its characters and the journey they traveled. To identify with their trials and struggles. It's grounded these larger-than-life characters with real world problems that will hopefully draw empathy from readers.

Sorry, this comment is 3 years too late but I just found this drawing. I know what you're talking about. I'm currently working on a story and I've reached a point where I need to make a STRONG emotional point. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to do it. I know what I want to do and say but I don't know how to get there. I'll figure it out (soon I hope) and, hopefully, it'll elicit some strong emotions in the reader.

Some of the hardest experiences is knowing a writing decision is best for the story, not for the reader’s feelings. They’ll feel how they want from your writing, you just focus on telling the best, most impactful story you can!

Yeah. I understand what you're saying. At this point in my story is, I know what I want to say, I just don't know how to get to the point to say it. Let's just say, my female protagonist is pregnant and, due to a quirk in genetics, she (an anthro fox) and her husband (a human) are having a hard time with the pregnancy. What I want to happen is that she's supposed to stay off her feet (no more than 10 minutes on her feet per day) and after several months, she needs to do something that has her on her feet far longer than 10 minutes and, as a result, she has a miscarriage. I need to build up to that situation, but at this time, I don't know how to do it.
