Day 599 of 365 More. I should have done this shot yesterday, but i didn’t get around to it. Oh well, it holds just as true today. It’s baseball season, once again. Nothing could be more exciting, except maybe the start of football season, but that’s still months away. Until then, I have my beloved…

Day 598 of 365 More. You know, producing a comic book is more work that I ever dreamed. After spending all day yesterday on a shoot, I spent all day today coloring the artwork inside. Since I hadn’t really done anything else, I thought I’d give everyone a sneakpeak at one of the pages. Hopefully…

Day 596 of 365 More. Beer, the only carbs I need. So today was the day. After 5 weeks of processing, Steph and I invited friends over to try a nice refreshing batch of "Lonzo Maverick’s Good Ol’ Fashioned Canadian Maple Lager." Just like Grampa used to make. Unfortunately, as far as I know, my…

Day 595 of 365 More. After we finish this comic, I’m not sure what I’m going to do with myself. At this point, it just kinda feels like I’ve always been doing it. Sleep is some kinda myth. A dream long since past (see, there’s no dreams since I don’t sleep). But we’re getting there.…

Day 594 of 365 More. Well, I’m getting there. Finished page 19 today. 5 more to go. I can see the end over the horizon. I’m really looking forward to getting some sleep next week (though I’m going to bed now and its barely 2). Next week I also hope to return to doing something…

Day 592 of 365 More. I’m "waiting for the other shoe to drop." Get it? Hahah! It’s funny you see. Errm… I haven’t been sleeping much. I’m very used to being unhappy with life. I’m used to things not going well. But lately that isn’t the case. I’m still working. The podcast is going well…

Day 590 of 365 More. So I wanted to get a bunch of comic book stuff done this weekend, and I did. Five pages in two days. I feel like I’m back on schedule, and as an added bonus, I get to go to sleep tonight at a very early reasonable 2:30AM. That’s actually even…

Day 589 of 365 More. My brain is turning to mush. Actually, I had a pretty productive day today. Got a lot of work done on the comic (2.5 pages). Filmed what seemed like a good episode of the podcast. Got our new Time Capsule (Apple Airport 802.11n router with 500GB of storage built in…

Day 588 of 365 More. Yeah, ok… my eyes are kinda bloodshot. Popular myth. People think I don’t sleep. Nothing could be farther than the truth. Actually I do sleep. Just not as much as most people. I learned a long time ago that even though I don’t need as much sleep with as other…

Day 587 of 365 More. Today I am phoning it in… heehee… get it? Actually, I really just wanted to see how good the quality of an iPhone portrait was. The answer… err… it’s this good. The problem with this whole comic book thing is that really, its all I’m doing with my life. I…

Day 586 of 365 More. The comic is well underway. I’m more than a third done with the finished artwork. Max is more than halfway through the pencil work. It’s going well. The problem is that I’m staying up so late doing it every night that I’m starting lose track of what’s real and what’s…

Day 585 of 365 More. Helluva day! So the battery in my laptop has been acting up and not holding a charge since I went to Florida last week. I didn’t have time to deal with it though so I put it off till today to go to the Apple store and get a replacement.…

Day 584 of 365 More. Finished the first chapter (8 pages) of the comic tonight. Now 2 chapters (16 pages) to go. It’s a lot of work but I’ll get there. That said, the late nights and long hours are starting to get to me. I just feel tired. And I know what you’ll all…

Day 583 of 365 More. I said my self-portraits would be suffering for the near future, and I wasn’t kidding. I spent the entire day glued to my laptop. I was up til 7am last night working on the comic, and started again as soon as I woke up. I took a couple breaks. One…

Day 582 of 365 More. Wow. I’m amazed at how much I accomplished today. Got two pages done of my comic. Edited and posted some shots of Chaste from yesterday’s shoot. Worked out for the first time in way too long. Bottled the beer that Steph and I made a few weeks ago. Cooked up…
