Journal Entry: Sun Feb 4, 2007, 5:51 PM
You know, it may *seem* like I'm not drawing much, but the real truth is that I'm just not scanning it. I've got a backlog of stuff to color; I'll get around to it once I have that elusive Time again. So, instead, I'm updating this list. Goodbye, TCB, I never had any idea what to do with you anyway! It is better, I think, to concentrate on the ones that have a vague chance of real published existence. Which is not to say that any of my other many and sundry scattered ideas are useless fluff; they're just not well-thought-out enough to be of use yet. So, here they are, the two things I've got going that I maintain a certain level of confidence in.

VENTURE: Ah, the glory of the future! Where the people are wealthy and the cities are shiny. And a groundbreaking experiment is on its way to celebrating its fortieth anniversary: the only city with its own orbital pattern, the greatest of the great corporate investments, a dazzling beacon of technology and culture...the Joint Business Venture. But things are not right in Venture, and they are on the brink of a Revolution. Everybody so far: Lula Rochester, reasonably pleasant sheriff; JT Taylor, gender-befuddling mechanic; Stan O'Shea, perpetually miserable and deeply alcoholic theoretical pianist; Leon Molina, surprisingly normal revolutionary leader; Heloise Magillicuddy, neutral bar-and-gun-shop owner; Oscar Kwon, tool of the establishment and TV journalist; Yolanda, anatomically-inaccurate robot designed for strictly platonic but greatly empathic friendship; and Horace and Walter, Earth filmmakers and generally perplexing. That's a lot of everybody. Damn.

TEPOZ CANYON is not a comic, but I seem to have taken up sketching the characters (and, on occasion, setting) regardless. It contains a guy named Owen Holson (anthropologist not prone to saying much), a guy named Gary Margi (archaeologist prone to saying quite a bit), a lady possibly named Hope (possibly an etymologist of no uncertain skill), a guy named David Reikler (field doctor with medical Issues), and a lady whose name is not entirely known to me. I often feel loath to discuss it, as it is something which would be rather more difficult to create than a comic, so that's all the info you're getting. I would not mention it at all, were it not for the fact that I feel that--much like Venture--it may actually be Good. Hell, that's the only reason I mention my stuff at all; I may be self-conscious about it, but I often suspect that it is rather better than the sort of thing most teenagers come up with.

And there you go.

No problem! Actually I recognized your stuff from lower_tadfield ;) (You once sent me a copy of OpenCanvas. I have been trying to track you down ever since.)

"But, look, you found the notice, didn't you?"
"Yes," said Arthur, "yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying "Beware of the Leopard."

Hey, thanks for watching me! Always cool to see another artist who is a HHG fan! There are so few of us. :)

Aye, my mother's friend sent my mother an E-mail that read "Do not look at this until you are ready", but my mum shrugged it off and then saw Polo... a little over a year old, with an abused past, and no where to go... we drove to Portland, Oregon the following Sunday and picked her up. Oddly enough, the dog my mother tailored to her wants and needs has seemingly turned out to be my dog...

Man, I really wish DA would let frontpage comments show up in the Messages section. I NEVER SEE THEM.

And, thanks for the compliment! I've never actually seen Almost Famous, but I really want to. I've heard the quote a few times, though, and that's what gave me the idea :D
