Gnomon Chronicles is a work of fiction and nonfiction by Karl Jones (nonfiction), who says:
Gnomon Chronicles is a personal mythology, a mashup of history and fiction, mixing real people and events with fictional situations and events.
Right now (July 2017) it consists of a couple of dozen fictional characters, let's say a dozen central characters. They reveal themselves to me in bits and pieces, over weeks and months. I'm not a strong storyteller; my scope is narrower. I see a moment, a scene, a brief exchange of dialog or action. I'm gathering up these pieces in the Fiction wiki, and I trust they will coalesce into stories.
Fortunately, I'm working with the excellent illustrator and storyteller Greg Nesbitt (nonfiction). He's been drawing a series of characters studies and scenes, which I plan to publish as a coloring book later this year.
Ultimately I want to write, produce, and publish a series of comic books, culminating in a graphic novel. That's for the future, and it's a tall order, but I'm okay, I'm a tall thinker.
