My goodness it’s already been 3 days since my last post! It’s hard to write about new projects when they’re not really off the ground. I’m not sure if it’s proper to talk about ideas you haven’t signed any contracts on.

That said, taking a little break from art even though I’d much rather be drawing lately. Trying to finish up a second proposal but really dragging my feet on it. I even think it could be good and I’ll have enjoyed writing it but somehow my mind keeps looking for anything else to do. This happens with some projects, and not with others. Right now my muse keeps jumping to another idea I started almost a decade ago, and it’s taken a myriad of shapes in those years, from a manga short, to a light comedy, to a lengthier opus, and now it’s more of a dark sci-fi superhero comic. A far, far ways from where it started, but this latest version feels full of life and I’m really wanting to follow it down it’s path and see where it’s taking me.

The problem is, I actually have places I can go, editors lined up for the book proposal and the sci-fi superhero thing, I don’t know what to do with it, or where to take it, or how much time it would eat up and if I could expect to go anywhere with it.

That’s what’s going on in my brain, anyway. Trying desperately to focus on this proposal. Meanwhile I’ve just about finished the Dark Tower book 3, another thing that’s crying for my time!

Don’t forget Emo Boy at comicon this week, Saturday the 24th, if you’re there, please check out the panel, I’m very curious what Kyle and Vanguard will be saying about it! Hopefully next year we’ll be further along and I can visit, too. If not for Emo Boy, than maybe for Happyface which will have hit bookstores.

I think I need to go back to Stephen King-land. Book tomorrow.
