Still alive and kicking

Yes, I'm still alive. A lot has happened on this side of the wired. This month has brought an unfair share of trials and troubles, and I am finally through most of it I hope. Good news is that I think I'm back with direction, so maybe I can get productive again.

I have two commissions on my list of things to do. A month or so ago I finished a big one that really wrecked my brain. I've never drawn Wolverine before, and I have a few issues with it, but he seemed to really like the work. I didn't get a photo of it though, so I can't show it off. I'd like more commissions like that, but there is only so much I can do to get offers. I'm small time, afterall. One of these commissions is to be colored, so that should be interesting. I've never thought of myself as a good colorists, and I like crisp black and white lines. Still, this should be fun.

The other news is that I, too, have been suckered in by the challenge of writing a 'novel' in November. Hurray for loading my free time with items with deadlines to shake myself out of apathy.

I'd like to make a metaphor dealing with the idea of a pheonix, but that might also make an unintended reference to MacGyver. Those who know me well will get the double meaning / joke I'm trying to make. That is, if I haven't totally lost the few readers I had.
