I need my days to slow down. It has been non-stop and I can’t seem to get caught up on all the extra stuff so I can get caught up on the other stuff. But the residency was mailed off, and the grant application is now ready to go. Almost.
I still ate okay today and played racquetball. Remember that lesson, kids! It’s important to take care of yourself.
And I had some cookies. Because that’s important too.
Spent the weekend doing some fun things. Went for a walk with a friend. Got material to make a Cookie Monster costume for Halloween. Ate cookies. Played racquetball.
I also finished compiling documents for an art residency as well as an art grant — so keep your fingers crossed.
Stweart and I (mostly Stewart) are still puttering at the site. Next is to build individual directories for each comic. some layout stuff. See if we can convince WP to let readers click on the comic to navigate to the next strip. Good stuff. Thank you for your patience.
Spent some of the day working on a grant proposal, and some on a residency proposal. Worked on a freelance job, and got some coloring done. Still feel out of it. I need toothpicks to prop open my eyelids.
The site is coming together though. Stewart C. Baker (fiction and poetry writer, check him out at Infomancy) has been working hard with the brilliant support of Corey here and there too. Yay!
The current plan is to have the main page show ALL the comics, and then have unique directories for each project. If you have any thoughts of functionality or design you think would be good, don’t hesitate to shout out.
Okay. ALMOST caught up after my short wander on the west coast.
For those who only visit the site on M-W-F, make sure to also come Tuesday and Thursday! I’m now posting “Yontengu” which was drawn by Don Ahé and written by myself.
Today I played racquetball for the first time in weeks. Amazing how some skills slip so quickly. Plus, when I last did it I was finishing up my novel, and now I need some new story problems to ponder as I hit.
Monday! Still working on website redesign. Will probably be tinkering at it all week, thank you for your patience!
Site is underway for reconstruction. Please be patient with any annoyances. Working on it. 🙂
Writing this blog ahead of time. Unless my plane crashed, I’m home safe in Glens Falls! 🙂
Did I really forget to upload the strip again? Sorry the delay.
I get home Tuesday night. All will be normal after that. I promise (hope).
Had a great weekend in Olympia, including arts walk, many reference photos taken, long walks ant talks, laughing, and it was just over all a grand awesome time.
I am nearing the end of my trip and I’m winding down. Feeling tired and brain-soggy and missing my routine diet, my routine exercise, my sweetie, my cats, and my bed.
Which leaves me with no idea what to blog about. 🙂
Today, in Olympia WA I stopped in ONE of the best comic stores I’ve ever been in, Danger Room Comics, where I got to have a lovely conversation with Frank who ranks me as one of his most difficult to please customers EVER. Man-o-man do I remember him always trying to find something both to my taste and that I’d never read. But “The Rabbi’s Cat” and “Isaac The Pirate” I have to credit him with. Rock on, Danger Room.
Oh noes! I forgot I’m on the west coast, and so 9:00 is midnight. Posting the strip 38 minutes late. 🙂
I’m stuffed on vegan nachos and horchata. Good times. 🙂
