so yesterday I had a REAL sore back, still sore today, but I realized it was likely a combination of having slept on it wrong the previous night, and also the height at which I was working with my new Cintiq.  So after getting some things done, I HAD to rearrange my entire studio so I could work on the Cintiq in a more comfortable way.  ...

going to attempt to find that artistic zone again today.  there's a lot of stuff going on this week here, kids are home from school for a few days I think, and have a couple half days as well.  I'm on the verge of having that "feeling" that you get sometimes as an artist, where you think you're about to get a ...

haven't slept good in over a week here.  My mind is just racing with thoughts at night now.  From work to family things to creative things...it's nuts.  I've never had this problem before really either.  I can totally understand why they make sleep aid medicines now :D  It's Friday.  Which means ...

So as soon as the wife gets back from helping out at the school with breakfast for my son’s class today, we’re likely ...

So yesterday I got 4 boxes worth of comp copies in here, 2 boxes of the hardcover collected trade of the original Hero By Night mini-series, a box of the first issue of the new ongoing Hero By Night comic, and a box of the KISS 4K KISSmas special one-shot.  I'm going to run through my thoughts on them real quick here.

seems like there is a dichotomy between working long days and working short days. Today, is a short day, probably only around 6 hours worth of work time when all is said and done. 2:45 need to head up to the school for basketball practice, which goes until 4:30. then it’s time to hurry home, eat and get changed to head back up the high ...
