Yesterday it struck me that I needed a lightboard, or a trace board, whatever you want to call it, for art. (This is because I’ve learned that if I trace a drawing once, I have a much better feel for then doing it freehand, so it’s really a very useful learning method for me.) So, as a procrastinatory technique, I just remembered this and came to look them up. Jeez. The cheapest I found at a glance is €86, and the one that’s of a size more like what I’d…

bum bum ba bum!
3800 words all told today, and I have doom set up, emotional entanglements to explore, actions to disapprove of, and Guilder to frame for it. Frankly, I’m swamped. Actually, I need to go back *again* and do some more revisions on the first 100 pages. This is not how I write a book. I go great guns til I hit a wall a third of the way in, then I rewrite, then I go forward again, slogging through the middle, until I hit the 3/4ths point, at which time I…

I just got the last page for Chance. This is going to look really fantastic. *laugh* Ardian’s going to do inks, and , I need to talk to you about that colorist we talked about the other day. I’ll…gosh, maybe I should email you. :) Anyway, one way or another I’m thinking a September-ish submission to Image, at this point. Maybe later, probably not earlier. Also, I must finish writing Chance 4-6. In my copious free time. I’ve had to turn the comments off on kitsnaps, because I’m just getting…

Possibly I should learn to not put down an estimated wordcount for the day. I sat down at Nook and read the 88 pages I had, and thought, wow, no idea what happens next. I needed more setup. So I went back and put in more setup, about 9 pages worth, and now I know what to do next. So I’m *just* shy of 100 pages and about one chapter short of finishing the setup, I think. The initial setup, anyway, and that comes out about right. But anyway, unless…
wagon, meet kit. kit, wagon.
Having eaten a truly astounding amount of food in the last week, and being visibly pudgier than I was ten days ago and grumpy about it, I am declaring a moritorium on eating poorly and getting back on the wagon. Today’s goal: do weights as well as walk to the post office. Short term goal: 3 days of actually sticking to a WW plan, counting points and all. This gets me to Thursday, where I will get on the scale and see what kind of damage I’ve done (and hopefully…
