05/06/13 Post Galaxy Saving Drinking

05/06/13 Post Galaxy Saving Drinking

The kitten is doing okay. Still fighting a URI. Looking forward to in a week-and-a-half, the kitten will be old enough to get FIV tested, and then we can introduce her to the other cats.

And I’ve been meaning to say, thank you for all the kind words about adopting! My girlfriend and I have 5 cats (Babette, the kitten, if #5) and they’re all adopted. For those unaware, animal shelters in the US have to euthanize about 3-4 million animals each year because they were not adopted. So if you’re thinking of buying an animal in a pet-store or from a breeder, please don’t. Love is more important then breed.

I have not yet seen Iron Man 3, and not sure if I’ll get the chance, but I hear it is very very good. And I did an Iron Man doodle for my doodle group.

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.

01/30/13 The Moronic Play Out

01/30/13 The Moronic Play Out

Playing around with various drawing software, exploring options for my next big strip. Wondering how I’m going to boil it down to just one idea! Busy with that, more book editing. Hoping the model drawing at the local community college starts up again soon. Where does the time go?

Comic Chameleon just announced that they’re inviting Beta Testers for their webcomic smartphone app (Spacetrawler will be one of those webcomics). If you want to be one, apply there, the link is at the top of the page.

Mannn, James Anderson does such lovely work over there on his webcomic “Ellie on PLanet X”

Planet “Nerpy.” Oh goodness. I need to start getting more sleep.

Hey, there’s a photo contest over at TopatoCo. Submit one for $10 off your next order, or for the grand prize!

I mentioned I’ll be tabling at Tucson Festival of Books March 9 & 10, and I mention it again. Plan. Come. It’s book! How can you go wrong? Wait. Don’t answer that.

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!

10/29/12 Greeting Rikshaw

10/29/12 Greeting Rikshaw

Nip it in the bud: what we’ve seen of Rickshaw Boans. And then on Wednesday we’ll be moving on to other characters. Wheee!

Don’t know anyone local yet, so our Halloween plans are sparse. I was considering dressing up as an empty “batteries and water” store shelf, the scariest thing I can think of, but I guess that would be a bit tasteless. Hope all of you in the NE (including me) weather Sandy well.

In memories of happier weather, last weekend we took the canoe and went to the water. Here is a final picture from our last canoeing of the season. Goodnight, autumn. Good morning Halloween, good food, friends, and cozy couches with cats.

10/24/12 Bollycks At The G.O.B.

10/24/12 Bollycks At The G.O.B.

Remember, the Bollycks being after Martina? Well, now you do.

I have nothing new to blog about. So I’m just going to say again, buy a copy of my friend Dan’s e-book “Exit Strategy” (and for those who have read it, leave a review!)

I think I need rest.

10/22/12 Useful Habits

10/22/12 Useful Habits

Had a good week. My sweetie got to see Morrisey (and I wandered around the big(ger) city, pondering life, food, and the new novel). We explored the local history museum which had lots of dead birds. Cadfael ditched his collar, but perhaps his timing isn’t all off since it is near Halloween and he’s a black kitty so we shouldn’t let him roam much for the next week or so.

I have a fun link for you all! The first issue of the online magazine Perihelion! And even better, I have two comics on the site (at the bottom of the page), check ‘em out. :)

Oh, and we watched the dark comedic strange Norwegian thriller Headhunters, and the silly and somewhat surreal new Woody Allen movie To Rome With Love. Good times.
