The only true enemy in a competition, is one who says that competition is dumb.
Had a good weekend visiting more friends. And I’ve been getting a lot of work done on this trip too, since it seems most of my friends are working M-F 9-5. One of the things I love about my job is that it fits in my backpack.
I have this weird thing, where actions tend to have consequences in my stories. Cap’n Angie stepping in WAS the appropriate thing to happen.
Oh, and I keep meaning to mention the review of Spacetrawler over at Skjam. And thanks for the mention by Gini Koch (author of the funny Touched By An Alien series) regarding my being mentioned on io9. š
Fortunately I only MOSTLY packed shorts for my trip since it was supposed to mainly be in the 80s. Looks like the weather decided to change, and now it’s the 60s. Wet and chilly! Of course, what better way to remind me of living in the PacNW. š
A quick announcement. On October 14th, a new strip will be running here on Tuesday and Thursday, alongside “One Way.” The piece is titled “Julie Phazer, Hero of Sol” and is an action adventure sci-fi (occasionally comedic) story written by myself and drawn by the amazingly talented Don AhĆ©. I can’t wait to share it with all of you.
The convention was, indeed, a fine thing. Had some good conversations and the time passed quickly.
Ahhhh, it’s Wednesday. I’m down in the northern tip of California, visiting my sister. Beautiful area, although sad about theĀ toickly.
I’m writing this blog on Friday, so let’s ASSUME that I had a great time at the Rose City Comic Con. If Not, I’ll tell you all about it on Wednesday.
Lauren Davis over at “io9” added “Spacetrawler” to her list of 10 webcomics that would make great shows. That would be SO. MUCH. FUN.
Thursday was the rain date for Glens Falls APE Chalk Fest, where I was the featured chalked. it rained AGAIN. But was intermittent enough, and enough people showed up, that it went forward. However, I only had about half the time to work as I needed (due to the weather), and so I didn’t finish it. But I got the important parts done.
Or…. the full vid walk around.

So, I’ll be traveling until October 7th. I am pretty much done with all the strips during this period (been working hard), so there shouldn’t be any delays in posting the strip (well, assuming there are no technical difficulties).

And, if you’re curious, I did a ship slice, so you can see how all the rooms connect.

I had a good weekend. I painted (can’t show you because it’s a gift), saw Ralph Nader speak, made a huge pot of soup. A bit quiet (and lonely) with my sweetie away traveling, but it’s a good chance to get ahead on work, and the cats are happy to distract me as much as possible.
Sweetie has been away on a trip, so I’ve been working every night until I drop. Nice to get caught up on things, and nice to get ahead right before I take a trip myself (next weekend I’ll be tabling at Rose City Comic Con). Also nice to not really worry about dishes for two weeks. š
But tonight I went out to see a bluegrass trio, Harpeth Rising. Very enjoyable.
I painted another oil painting.Ā I went to studio-model thing again on Monday. This one is 8Ć10. As before, due to requests of not showing nudity on the main page,Ā the āNSFWā version can be found here. (along with āsee-the-processā images)
My sweetie has gone away on vacation, and so I’m writing and writing and writing. And then petting the cats, then writing some more. And my brain feels like it has melted. I think I need a walk.
