Subject: Leia holds little baby Anakin in her arms after the dreadful events of the 'Dark Empire'. She tells him a good-night story that contains many beings from the SW universe and the numbers from 1 to 10.
It took me ages to post the story here, because I asked myself if I really dare to put it into fanfic after all. Tonight I simply decided: yes I go for it.

Inspiration: George Lucas, my fiance DarthUncle and the STAR WARS fact files

Disclaimer: SW is owned by George Lucas and Lucas Lt. !!!

My reason for creating the book: It's a belated wedding present for Earwen_Lightrider and I still need to do the cover before I finally send it off to the US. My busy personal life, my immigration to the Netherlands and my work as a secondary-school teacher stopped me from really, really finishing that project. But I hope that Earwen is a true jedi-knight with patience and no sith-lady full of revenge.

A little side note: There is also a slight counting mistake of mine inbetween that I still need to redo. Once the Hooth page looked different and there were more tauntauns on it. Why reveals my making off in my fanart thread.

Here we go for now:

Great job with this Azure!

Ups, I am discovered.

*hugs fellow German a big deal!*

Hi there! Expect more from me, because tonight I came up with a new bold project, while DU is sleeping already!

*grins!*

I will start on it tomorrow morning and go on writting in the evening. The pictures for the new story already exist.

Fantastic Job.

I loved it. The pictures were also great! I liked the bedtime story idea. It gives it a diffrent feeling than a regular fanfiction. I hope you post more things like this!

Gotta say, there's fan fic, and then there's whatever clever category this falls into.

The most unique presentation of anything I've seen here.

The images with the writing went along with each other and were cute the way a children's book should be. But then she mentioned the "darkest day of her life"....the destruction of Alderaan. Powerfully emotional, but yet assuring to her little Anakin.

Bravo! applause applause applause

Amazing!!! applause

I loved the drawings and the story was cute! I loved the mention of Leia's darkest day and Anakin banishing them. Great job! hugs

Thanks, dear madman007, dear Sil Solo and C1-J2.

I hope that there will be more this summer, because one of the nice things about being a teacher are the very long summer holidays.

This book project is very dear to me and the end result is done with water colours. Most members of the German Fan Force General held the original in their hands by now and can't wait to give it to Earwean_Lightrider via post at one point this year.

Dear pants, a beloved and familiar face in this place.

Thanks for finding me in here and sorry that I was NOT on facebook the past days or in a certain other place, dear fellow dark lady and good friend. But I was busy for a very good reason. While other people out futher suggestions for the wedding list in October and DU is working hard to finish his thesis, I was struck by an awesome idea last evening. Now I am ready to share it with everybody.

If you are a very good girl and I happen to have money, you might get a copy one fine day.

Or even better you get your own story, my old master.
