*account for silence*
Oooo, ehtylene, I haven't begun to unleash the power of FG. I've been trying to keep my sneakitude very high. (Sorry to hear about the finger, though.)
peacay, I'm not sure whether it's a competition or more of a dubious honor, but some do seem to have a certain knack.
see, i would. which is why people second guess those answers if they know me.
i can fake a minoan fresco to fool the acedems if you want
if you have a terrace, it gives me even more want to forge ahead, although i'd rather go NZ for the winter spell (likes jacket weather)
fireplaces rock as well
spiritually
i haven't put them online, but if i get impetus-- i'm a slave to inertia except when fantagraphics is concerned. (no deal with anyone right now so, it's ok, maybe it will give me a reason to put stuff online. but i dont' wanna piss off any millionaires or brownies--)
Btw, I really liked what you had to say about competition a few posts up. I've been trying articulate my personal feeling about competition to a few friends of mine and your observation is very insightful. Thanks!
waiting for the 'officials' to leave the scene so i have time to kill--
some stuff has been sold off page by page to individuals but as far as paper publishing comics, i haven't since the 'zine days. McCloud was doing some cool stuff using the scrolling page but i'm not sure how to direct my "studio audience" anymore as far as web is concerned.

I apologize ahead of time for this, but I'll blame a lack of sleep and withdrawal pains from the MeTa 9622 thread on my being a little more than my usual punchy self. But each time I read 'meat toy', I hear "So, this meat toy...it vibrates?" and start giggling like a 13 year with the tj's (tired jollies). I'm sure my roommates are ready to commit me.
hey, i'm still weirded out that jonmc has decided to be all "trendy" and get a tattoo
The meattoy is a whole other screed i'd like to go on about somewhere, someday.
no deception, genuine caring, just far more convenience than anything else. Someday someone will both have a brain and let me work, in another lifetime, if i'm good, maybe--
