YAY JIM!

This looks really nice scanned. Do you take the pages out of your book to scan them?

LOL, I'm randomly doing a Spock and Uhura drawing. Spock looks terrible, though.

I don't actually. Which is stupid, because that would make my life SO much easier. I'm obsessive about the sequence of my sketchbook, so when I scan stuff, the edge by the binding gets a bit of "shadow." I have to go and digitally get rid of all of it, which takes a few hours. Hence, the delay in me uploading the comic. >____<

Yaaaay, I'm happy you're adding to the pool of fangirly goodness. :3

I'm also proud to say that today I had a crazy brainstorming day...so I probably have around 6-9 more comic ideas to come. Some more asanine than others, but lol, it's keeping me plenty amused with myself--and that's what counts.

Got an eager phone call today...it pissed me off when he made fun of my penchant for writing and drawing (he interrupted)...so I basically told him if I had a choice, I would choose my crafts over being with people. I am quickly growing tired of having to defend things I like to do just because other people have ideas about how I "should be" while trying to cage me within the trappings of something that resembles a relationship.

Looks like this is the weekend for me to lay down the law.

Stay positive: Crank out crack comics.

Can't wait to see what you turn up!

"You're only naked in my dreams..."

I fully agree. You've every right NOT to apologize for your hobbies--it's his fault for being so insecure.

Also, this was hilarious. XD

That's what I was thinking: I knew you didn't take stuff out because then it would be open to the elements. So I was wondering why there was no shadow! That explains it.

This could seriously turn into a creative renaissance for you, though! Haha, watch, this will turn into a twice weekly webcomic. XD

The eager phone call... not from Puppy Boy? From the actual "relationship" person?! Dick move in either case. D:

Aw, thanks.

(Ooooh noooo...off-forum fraternization!!! XD)

He's known me for a very long time (yeeeears), so you would think he would know that I LIKE being creative and making fun of that is NOT going to get me to like him more. Nor is trying to get me to do stuff while I'm in the middle of a creative binge and acting like "doing stuff" is obviously superior to what I am currently doing.

And he wonders why I rejected him for years. Sigh.

"You're only naked in my dreams..."

Puppy Boy indeed. Yeah. I have lots of complicated stuff to tell you, so next week...(or Sunday after I get off work XD) - also, I may be dragging actual "R" person to see ST again next week. You should come. I already mentioned you.

BAHAHAHA. You know, it's been months since I've been able to devote any amount of time to anything creative...and it's been years since I've been able to "finish" my creative projects. The Renaissance is, I suspect, a direct consequence of my completing my degree.

But does that matter? No way! I'm so happy to have output again! I can't believe how stunted creatively I was when I was stuck writing papers...but I guess...even then, I found ways to make my papers insane creations. XD

I'll have to show you the title of my senior paper. Or titles. I technically wrote two (and can't believe I got away with what I did! XD)

"You're only naked in my dreams..."

HAHAHA, I'm game for another viewing! Depending on what happens with Irene, that is. And Sunday works for me, too, for chat time!

And... I just realized something REALLY weird. One of the major renaissances of your creative life was the summer after you "graduated" from, well, sixth grade. XD But it was also a very freeing summer experience, IIRC. Weird.

The creativity never leaves you.

I think you're right. I'm trying to remember...but if it's the summer I think it is, my head just about exploded with so many ideas, I was blown away with them.

I'll call you after 6pm then. :3

"You're only naked in my dreams..."

Haha that's awesome.

I'm not concerned about the past. Nor am I concerned with the future. I merely do what my heart tells me to do. I strive to live a life of no regrets.
