3-19-08- I know it's been a while, but I added one new piece of artwork to the gallery, and a three-page fancomic I made to
celebrate the return of Derrick Fish's Dandy and Company! Go visit his website- the strip is actually really good! Plus,
I wrote the introduction to the first volume of his collection reprints, under Lulu Press.
12-16-07- There's a treat in my Comics page called Mistletoe, a comic I made in the in the beginning of December. It's a
departure from what I usually do in comics. It's a short story, only five pages, with no test of any kind, and no crazy humor.
As for jobs, I just received word that my contract with my employer has been extended. I am still going to search for jobs,
but now, the fear of a deadline is no longer hovering over me, and I feel less stressed.
10-19-07- I updated my gallery with a few new images since last update, a month ago. My search for a job safety net continues,
however, I am no longer dependent on the end date of my current job.
9-19-07- Wow it's only been 10 days since my last update?! In the Gallery, I complied and posted, with the studios' permission,
a reel that encapsulates my work on Kappa Mikey. The reel is about 3 minutes, no sound, and it's a mov, so it takes a long
time to load, but I am figuring out how to convert it into an mpeg file instead, which uploads quicker online. That will
soon replace this file. Stay tuned!
9-9-07- Added a new image to the gallery, a piece of concept art for the Jack Magic comic. This character will be introduced
in the next few chapters.
9-3-07- Happy Labor Day! I am still trying to find a good new home for Norm & Cory. I will probably make a new account under
a comichosting program, or try to get it under Keenspot, or the like, though, it would be ideal to have it under a space where
I have complete control. Now all that is left is to update the store, and and new images. I am also in the process of transitioning
between jobs right now, so things are busy,
6-1-07- Wow, I had forgotten how much I need to catch up on! There is an interview I forgot to mention that i have to Digital
Strips, a podcast which reviews webcomics. I talk mainly about Norm & Cory! Also, the links in the Gallery are now all working.
5-23-07-Today was uneventful. I started up this new mirror site of www.sketchesandsquirrels.com, since that site has become
impossible to update. Once I get this website going, I will eventually trash the old one. I also started the new gallery
section with new artwork!
The next time I start a Norm & Cory chapter, I should think the WHOLE story through. One of the reasons why this chapter has
been put on hold for so long is because I didn't think through how to get from A to B. It's getting close, but there are still
things I need to think about.
Jack Magic is easier for me to write simply because I know what's going to happen in the future. Many of you have noticed
that with its second chapter, I am taking a less childish, bright turn than I usually do in my stories. I don't want to be
labeled as someone who only writes about talking animals and preschool fare. Except for Jack, all the characters will be humans,
and have human situations. I want to show that I'm more flexible, even though Norm and Cory, at its conception, was ambitious
to begin with for me.
