05/01/13 Dimitri Walks

05/01/13 Dimitri Walks

If you’re interested in reading a REALLY GOOD and interesting synopsis of Spacetrawler for the uninitiated, Robynne Blume wrote an excellent one in her blog of Webcomics Worth Wreading. Thanks, Robynne!

In other news, for all of you Little Dee fans out there, Audra Furuichi and Scott Yoshinaga do a CUTE comic called “Nemu*Nemu,” and they are in the middle of a several-week-long story featuring none other than VACHEL. That storyline starts HERE (then devour the archives and buy the books!)

Can I just say? I’ve been listening to “Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality” for a couple weeks now and been unable to turn it off. I like the characters from Rowling’s book, and have really enjoyed seeing them turned on their heads in this fan-fic, not to mention that it shows in a way a more realistic approach to a bright scientific-minded person entering Hogwarts. As they say in the prologue “All science mentioned is real science.” And it’s fun. And kind of evil. How odd. Here’s the text Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality and here’s the podcast (which is quite listenable) podcast.

04/29/13 – Walking Away

04/29/13 – Walking Away

I’m part of a doodle group, and I did a doodle of Conan (click for larger version).

And of Jimmy Bond (From the original “Casino Royale”).

And a band I like, “kamaniu šilelis.” they’re sort of neofolk, and are Lithuanian.

(here’s one of their vids)

02/13/13 Before He Was King, by Don Ahé

02/13/13 Before He Was King, by Don Ahé

I am taking a two strip vacation. To what? To work! Yay!

And I have two amazing fill-ins for you. The first by Don Ahé of Road Apples Almanac (colored by me).

I think that if there is any current embodiment of George Herriman, it is Don Ahé. His cartooning is simple and incredibly expressive. His humor is gentle, hilarious, and utterly unpretentious. I cannot recommend his work enough.

I was fortunate enough to meet Don at TCAF last year. Sadly I won’t be making it to TCAF this year (this spring already guarantees to overwhelm me), but here’s a memory of happy day of Don, Brian, and myself about town.

02/06/13 Dimitri is Debugged

02/06/13 Dimitri is Debugged

I had a dentist appointment. First time in a while (due to finances etc). And they looked pretty good. Whaddya know! Guess it’s okay to eat the tremendously unhealthy amount of sugar I normally do to keep up my buzz (kids, don’t listen to me).

Just listened to Connie Willis‘s “Inside Job.” Dang, that woman can write.

My water soluble oil paints arrived. Do I paint quinces, a portrait, or the cover for my next novel? Or do i write instead? Or just make more fudge? So many questions!

My sweetie is going to trim hair and tomorrow we drive to Lee to get a sofa. Oh, the exciting lives we lead. ;-)

01/23/13 Our Universe’s Beginning

01/23/13 Our Universe’s Beginning

All these years seeing the poster for Les Miserables, I figured it was a tragedy, like the Little Matchstick Girl or something. But I just watched the 1998 one and it was a celebration of the joy of the human spirit and ended all happy! Boy was I surprised, until I remembered it was Hollywood and then I went to Wikipedia. Liam Neeson is no longer walking happy in the sun in my mind. Ah well. Perhaps I will listen to the novel on audiobook. I do like Hugo’s stories and ides, but not particularly his prose style. Or at least the translations of it I’ve tried. Oh, and Emile Bayard got chops!

And I made anise-flavored candies. Apparently candy is easy to make unless you want it to taste like anything or not be simply hard candy. Eating pieces like potato chips is not very rewarding in pleasure nor afterfeelings. I am going back to experimenting with molasses for my licorice.

Been busy. Trying to draw in new ways. Playing with new ideas and plots. Fun times. In my head.

01/21/13 Relationships and Histories

A couple of things today. I received another awesome piece of art from the funny Darrin Stephens who draws the lovely comic strip Labbugs! (You’ll also find this drawing posted on the “Fan Art” page)

Also, I will be attending the Tucson Festival of Books March 9-10 at Tucson’s University of Arizona (still working out travel, lodging, etc, but it WILL happen), and I’ll be tabling with an enormously talented group of woman who write Romance Novels. Check out who I’m tabling with!

01/15/13 King and Oohlooh Visit

01/15/13 King and Oohlooh Visit

Monday was gorgeous, and I took off the middle of the day to walk along the river with my sweetie. We packed hot rice and beans in two thermoses, and tea in another, and sat on a bench and ate lunch in the sun with trees protecting us from the chill breeze. A good afternoon.

Good days. Aside from stress. I ended up making the mint chocolate fudge (f%@ckin’ divine), if that is any baraometer. I need to find someone to play racquetball with. Hitting a ball hard is in my scope of need these days.

Christopher Hastings has a new Dr McNinja collection out, “Timefist,” I’m excited about that.

Oh. Huh. I just noticed. Haldeyis is not glowing. I will fix that tomorrow.

10/03/12 Choan’s Arrangement

Since Monday…. didn’t do much. Well, I mean, I did tons, but it was just this and that. Cleaning. Drawing. Good stuff.

Thanks for the shoutout from Tony over at Superfrat (and it was good to see you, Tony at InterventionCon). Speaking of Tonys, check out the charming married couple of Tony Breed’s lovely Finn and Charlie are Hitched.

09/05/12 Yuri Makes A Plan

09/05/12 Yuri Makes A Plan

Nothing new since Monday. Trying to find a King Arthur version i like, think for now I’m going with Malory. Cornwell second choice. Then maybe Steinbeck. Zimmer Bradley is always classic, but White left me feeling like I was too old to enjoy it. Oh, and I might give Sutcliff a try, although “Sword At Sunset” doesn’t seem to be on audiobook.

Again (ahem) I will be up at Plattsburgh, NY this weekend for the big 1812 Bicentennial Celebration, September 8th and 9th, tabling with with Mike Peterson and with booklets and talking to re-enactors and educators. I’ll have some Spacetrawler and Dee there if you want to stop by, although I might not have them on display. The booklets we’re focusing on are illustrated serial stories written by Mike Peterson and illustrated by myself. If interested in buying or peeping at them online, they are available as zines.

And I will ALSO be tabling and paneling in the D.C. area September 21-13 as a guest at InterventionCon. Last year I was there and had a great time and really enjoyed it. It is geeky and friendly and has a really great guest list of people with time and space to meet each one.
