Escape from Quintland






A draft of an old story that never sold. It was a story of five identical sisters, taken from their parents at birth, to be kept at a hospital and exhibited for tourists. One day they escape to explore the snowy countryside in search of their mother. I still like the idea, and think the pictures of the five girls together could have been cute, but the story was a bit scraggly. Think I spent too many pages having the girls chased by the doctor and his nurses. Instead I should have concentrated on their discovery of the outside world and the reconciliation with their mother.
