Miss the sound of my... journal?

Wed Sep 9, 2009, 6:11 PM
Well, I'll update then.

Things are a-brewin' here, but not too much I can say about official goings-on. So I'll mention a few currently unofficial things;

- Working on an image of an original character. I'll post that when it's done. It's unrelated to Wayward Son and all that, but is a story I'm writing, and hopefully drawing (hmmm?). It's not fanfic, but does belong to a character's universe that I do not own (hmmm?). Past that, I'll say nothing more until I post the image (and the minor background I give there), and if this becomes official. Best case scenario -- not until next year.

- Finishing up commissions. Might offer a few more, but come October and the big project I'll be booked until end of November/early December and won't be able to take on any more commissions of any sort. Get your shots in soon.

- On a more personal level, economy as bad as it is, things are going to take a gradual upturn for me and my family near the end of the year here. My wife is gainfully (and happily for once) employed, and I of course will be tackling the big project soon. These things mean happy Christmas for our kids, who have not gone without in the past, but have gone with little (aka, as much as we could afford). Seriously, if you talk to me in person about this, I crack up right about now talking about my kids having a really good Christmas this year. It's a happy thing.

One last thing - my time is limited, but if anyone would like me to brutally critique any of their work (preferably illustrations -- I'm no good at seriously critiquing pottery, sculpture, photography, etc), comment me, note me, whatever. Just get me the link, and I'll be honest without undo snark. ;)

All for now,


~B

I'm so happy to hear that about you and your wife's employment situation! It's nice to hear a "success" story amongst all the negativity out there now.
:icononegemini:
Thanks. Luck, chance, fate, or faith, whichever you believe most in, that's what it was. We needed something quick, my wife applied for the job, and less than a week later, she got called back, rocked the interview, and was working two days later. And, when all is said and done, she can walk to work (it's on our street) and I work at home. Money is saved on gas as well - really fortunate.

That's pretty awesome, needless to say. I'm really glad that your financial situation isn't bad off.
That, and this big project of yours does sound pretty intriguing!
:iconrkdiacomics:
I'll have a whole THESIS project for you to brutally critique over the coming 9 months! Keep your peepers peeled bro, I'll do the same!

I'll help as much as I can. Can you give me a little general background on the structure of thesis projects over there?

The structure is what we make of it. It's entirely self-driven. I'm planning on doing an adventure comic of some kind with a mini/zine to do on the side as well as keeping my website updated regularly once I start producing lots of work.
