All work and no play and all that

Wednesday, April 30, 2014


Apparently taking on ten extra shifts in one month, dealing with some pretty bad news, and throwing yourself into personal work makes for a bad blog month, who knew? I'm exhausted. I barely had the energy to draw this little thing, but I feel bad neglecting my little baby blog! May is going to really clear up for me, and I'm trying to plan some posts, but things are still a little chaotic around my home so I'm not sure I can even stick to a schedule, as much as I'd love to have more time to update.

The one good thing that's come out of all of this is that I've gotten back into the swing of comics. I missed making them so much. I'm terribly rusty, but I'm already improving as I work through them. There's nothing to show for it currently, but the script was completed, and I'm about a 3rd completed with the page sketches. I'm really excited about it, and will definitely share news about it when I'm ready to put it up for viewing! The heat in LA right now is heavy and slowing me down a bit (extreme heat gives me the worst headaches!) but I'm still pumped about creating again, and have been slowly working through world-building for my epic fantasy comic (which is something I'm working on for my 30 before 30 goal list!) I'm actually hoping to knock off a few things from that list in the coming months, so hopefully I'll have some posts regarding that!

Lastly, I'm still working through my photos from my Portland trip, but actually thinking of posting them in a few more condensed post, or else it might take me months to actually get through all the posts for it, which makes no sense as I'll likely take other trips by that point.

Alright, I'm off to write some more world-building notes, while half-watching Charmed (I've been watching through nostalgia goggles and it's still a little painful!) and sweat all over everything I own.

P.S. The dress I'm wearing in this drawing is currently my favorite thing. So comfy and cute! They're still selling them at Target right now!

Until next time!

  1. I'm newer-ish to your blog. I'd like to see your comics. If you have time, tweet me the link?

    1. Aside from a few fan comics on my art tumblr, I don't really have many comics up online right now! I used to have a comic up online called "No Crap!" but it got a bit out of hand for me. I miss that story, but I think I need to explore new things before ever going back to it! Thanks for the interest though, I'll keep everyone posted as I get closer to putting out comics!
