Here's one of the many reasons that I have to be grateful about changing jobs this past February: Instead of being crushed by mandatory overtime, I actually have the time and energy to do fun things like this!
To see all my #Inktober2018 drawings, see this folder in my DeviantArt gallery.
I've read enough ghost lore to know she was describing a "weeping woman," or La Llorona, though she never used the name. (She only vaguely recognized the phrase when I asked about it.)
Day 9: Precious
A mash-up of The Lord of the Rings with a poster for the movie Precious.
Day 10: Flowing
Around this time last year, at my previous job, a couple of my coworkers were comparing experiences and beliefs about hauntings. One was a recent immigrant from Mexico, and told about a stretch of river near her home that was reputed to be haunted by a woman's ghost. It was a favorite place for kids to dare each other to go, and most succeeded in scaring themselves pretty thoroughly even if they saw nothing.I've read enough ghost lore to know she was describing a "weeping woman," or La Llorona, though she never used the name.

Day 11: Cruel
My wife Erika suggested that I draw a Game Master for this prompt. Cackling, I obliged.
Day 12: Whale
