When it rains, it pours.

Working on: Inspiration! I was struck by an idea the other day in Boston while walking around my mom. I want to make a webcomic called Lifer. I have some really neat ideas about it, and hopefully I’ll get a chance to work on it soon. I got a ton of inspiration this week, just hit over and over again by cool ideas. I need to take some time and actually work. I have about three or four big projects I’m working on right now. The Independent Study Project, as yet unnamed, Lifer, my comic diary and I keep getting really neat ideas. I’m SO EXCITED.

In other news, I found some harry potter fanart I had done in the 10th grade. You don’t know me. Regardless, it was done with like… brush and zipitone. Way more advanced than the stuff I do now. I kind of want to include it in my CCS application, but that would probably be embarrassing. But I’ll probably do it anyway.

Reading: Bone, Cruddy by Lynda Barry, Chris Ware, Phase 7!!! I also read Disappearance Diary, which was beautiful and insane. It’s interesting to see how different the Manga publishing culture is so different from American comics, or at least from an outsider’s point of view. The serials might be different, like Marvel and DC, but still. Wow. I highly recommend it.

Watching: The Wire, Law & Order SVU, Oz, Away We Go (which I actually really liked, even if no one else did)

Listening to: Fall Out Boy? And Dan Deacon.
