Na--oh wait

I will not have internet access tonight and will therefore be unable to share the next exciting installment of my novel. Oh no! But don't worry too much. I'll be back tomorrow with an installment twice as long.

Until then, here's a picture of a dude for another story idea that cropped up halfway through November. Darn! Well, NaNo 09 is still keeping my interest, so maybe not so darn--let's just hope this new story holds my interest long enough for me to cement it.

This story is particularly self-aware; this particular dude is named Aleksei Chekhov, and in addition to being Russian, he is also a black market arms dealer. Get it?
