Template guide

Panel-by-panel breakdown

This template has no printed dialogue. The story is told entirely through the artwork, so each panel below is described from the image.

  1. Panel 1

    In a bright bedroom she sits up in bed stretching both arms, eyes closed and smiling; a gold star glows by the curtains.

  2. Panel 2

    At the kitchen counter she eats a plate of greens, a fried egg and cherry tomatoes with a glass of water; a second star shines.

  3. Panel 3

    On the sofa under a lamp she types on her phone, a scribbled tangle in her thought bubble; a third star glows beside her.

  4. Panel 4

    In bed at night she holds her hands together, eyes closed, as many glowing stars float around her.
