wow.

November 15, 2006

I got the final colors for Chance #1 this morning, and they’re beautiful. I had a bunch of minor detaily notes for the colorist last week, and he fixed ’em all up wonderfully, and just wow. *Wow*. I’ll post the first five pages, with letters and everything, for people to admire, when I get ’em. Hopefully Friday. Wow.

Ardian’s sent me all but one of the pages for the second issue now, too. I think it’s prettier than the first issue, and the first issue is gorgeous. I also think, in retrospect, looking at the whole thing, that it’s better written. The transitions are better, particularly. Maybe I’m starting to get the hang of this. :)

Oh, UPS just delivered the COYOTE manuscript for copy edits. Okay. Now I have a Plan. Today I’ll finish the proposal (I have to, because that way I can give a hard time, although I suspect the chapter she needed to do is done, as her latest entry indicates the Book From Hell has been delivered, which means if I *don’t* do my chapter, *she* will get to give *me* a hard time). Tomorrow and over the weekend I’ll work on the copy edits (Friday’s a day off, as I’m going to go talk to ‘s sf class about the industry, and then go see Casino Royale with Ted), and next week I’ll do TQB edits. That needs to go in the mail the 27th. All will be well. Awesome.

I also need to clean the kitty litter today, which isn’t nearly as awesome. :)

Did I *mention* how *pretty* my comic book is? O.O

  2. I don’t really have anything constructive to contribute, but I wanted to let you know I am enjoying reading you go *SQUEE!* over Chance. :)

  3. *swoons over your icon*

    *beams, too* I keep imagining people are rather bored with me going squee, especially since there are no pictures along with the squee, but, well. I guess that’s what you get for reading my journal. :)

  4. Second-hand *squee* is pretty enjoyable, when it’s so well deserved.

    And going to talk to a SF lit class counts as part of a day off? Generous girl.

  5. -laugh- Hey, I don’t get out much. Anything that involves leaving the house and talking to people is a day off, if it also includes not actually sitting down at a computer to put words on the page. :) It’s work-related, true, but it’s not *writing*. :)

  6. Cool! Any chance you might give my class a preview of some of the Chance materials? several of them are big comics buffs and four of them are flirting with the idea of a group project on comics.

    Hard lines on the kitty litter. :( There is nothing like life with babies or with pets to prove the old adage ‘shit happens’ and prove it rather more palpably than is entirely tasteful.

  7. Oh, yeah, in fact, I was thinking I’d bring some stuff in for the Chance stuff. Hrm. Maybe I’ll go into Cork tomorrow and get printouts, in that case, so I’ll have ’em Friday morning.

  8. Your Chance squeeing is much more exciting than me discovering vanilla cremes! ;)

    (And *giggle* I like the icon, too. James Marsden’s Cyclops = Love)
