Future plans.

Other than a minor sunburn after playing basketball poorly for two hours, this was a good weekend.
I'm still living the dream in the realm of unemployment, but my life is full of possibilities!
I'm using my time between jobs to crank out more mini-comics and deciding what big project of the many I have in the pre-production stage that I want to do first. There is one project in particular that is my baby and I have no intention of releasing it unless I actually gain some sort of professional noteriety - so that one is out. I have two other projects that are too sprawling and personal that I haven't the time to publish, yet. So, that leaves me with three options. All of these are short, anywhere between twenty-four to forty pages. The first project I had already printed in 2000 at an astounding FIVE copies! If I plan on releasing it again, it will need to be redone - the plot has a few holes, the writing is childish, and the art could be so much better. The other project I have in the hopper is a collaboration that I have created all the preliminary sketches and layouts for, but it is on hold for the time being. The last project I had conceived very recently. This project is a fictional account based upon a few intertwining true stories and myths. So, those last three are the big projects that I am most likely going to dive into.
Even more exciting news is the slight, and I do mean SLIGHT, chance that my work could be published in a local Twin Cities publication with an extremely large distribution. I have already committed to one story, in my usual mini-comic format, for this publication, but it has yet to be determined whether or not it will be printed, on the publication's website, or if it will even see the light of day.
Stay tuned! Oh, and above is a picture I drew in my sketchbook a while ago.
