Jake and the Dream Pirates

I’ve started outlining my next book.
I’m apparently not done with YA Fantasy fiction. The current title is Jake and the Dream Pirates. I’ve been getting plenty of fun ideas as I let it gestate. I even have a vague outline.
And the funny part is that it will be in the same universe as Abigail’s Dragon, but not use any of the main characters.
Kind of like how Anne Rice had the Vampire Chronicles and The Mayfair Witches. Only with much less velvet and homoerotic subtext. Right now, I'm mostly stuck on the protagonist's name. Not sure Jake is just right for this. Lisa likes everything but Jake.
Jake and the Dream Pirates Outline:
Chapter One: My Heroes Have Always Been Pirates
Chapter Two: Race to the Tempest
Chapter Three: The Queen of Cats
Chapter Four: Return to the Land of Never
Chapter Five: Redhanded Jack
Chapter Six: Ninjas and Pirates
Chapter Seven: Shooting Flamingos
Chapter Eight: Tall Sails, Taller Tales
Chapter Nine: Maelstrom of Forever
Chapter Ten: Grimaldi’s Tears
Chapter Eleven: The Law of the Dreamsea
Chapter Twelve: Fathers and Sons
Chapter Thirteen: Second Star to the Right

How is your comic doing?

We are just trying not to spend extra money until after the condo sells (whenever that might be) since we don't know what we are going to need to have in reserves for the new house. So at some point it will return and then have a few months of buffer built up. That isn't a bad thing. And I keep drawing. :D
