Newsletter update: Last week I dug up some of my very first Jekyll and Hyde sketches I did in early highschool (around 2004!).
This moment was a very late addition to the story. I believe it came up organically as I was beating out the final outline for this chapter and looking for ways to highlight Hyde's growth over the course of the story--that he's found a way to indulge in his Spirit of London at Night persona in a way that actually helps people. It was also my attempt to address what I interpreted as a note-behind-the-note from my editor Atla several years previous, which was . . . well, I probably shouldn't say what the note is, as it might give away. Maybe next year!
the whole-ass ending to the story. Maybe next year!
