Still kickin'

Sorry for the lack of posts. It's bloody August 9th and this is the first post of the month. What a crock, eh? Haven't drawn much of anything aside for thumbnails for a freelance poster project. I have written a new short story though. It had built up over the course of a couple days and Angie was gracious enough to let me go to a bar to put the tale down on paper.

Three Guinness later and the tale was fleshed out and told. Still plenty of refinement before it's totally complete, but I'm happy with the way it turned out, which wasn't how I expected it to. Always nice when your characters surprise you. Once it's complete I'll ship it around and see if there are any bites. It's been awhile since I've gotten a rejection letter and I need to add to my stack.

Sounds like a good excuse for a beer...er, writer's meeting if you ask me. We're off to Spokane for a week, but I'll call when we get back. I'm kinda hoping that a change of scene will send some inspiration my way. I've been down in the editing ditches too long.

I haven't written prose since college. Sounds fun. Maybe I'll give it a try. Good luck with your story.
