Summary
Sylvia follows a creature she calls Nightmare, a shadow creature that lives under her bed, and, as the name suggests, has been the one creating the nightmares she sees when she sleeps. Wanting to give her a proper goodbye on her last night before she moves to college, a night where Sylvia couldn't sleep, Nightmare takes her to Dreamland, but when her fears prove to be too much for the land to handle, a Creation is made that prevents her from leaving. Sylvia, with the help of Nightmare and her biggest fears, needs to overcome her worst fears before she's lost forever.

History
Living and Waking is the result of me trying to finally take a step toward my dreams of making comics. It's one of the many project ideas I have, but this is the only one that's been able to stay a manageable size (every other idea turns into multiple books, and Living and Waking is set to remain just one book). I came up with this idea the summer after I graduated high school and involves many of my own personal fears about growing up. It was supposed to be finished that summer (didn't happen obviously) but many of the themes present still resonate with me so I hope you guys will follow me on my journey!
Updates
Almost finished with my first draft of the second chunk (I've divided the story into three chunks) but I'm already seeing many issues, but once I've gotten the entire thing on paper, I'm going to work on more art stuff so I can go back to edit the entire script!
