On Updates

I’ve become more and more aware that I neglect to update things such as blog, comics, and life in general. So I did what comes natural to this situation: Change. I’m going to be updating on a monthly basis rather than a week to week basis where I come up with small things to talk about. Rather than jabbering on about some random stuff, I’ll just be going a little bit more in depth about it.

Recently, I went through my old pictures and web comic archives and re-read a rather good one by a certain Jay Naylor called ‘Better Days’. The story mostly focuses on the two children Fisk and Lucy. They are raised by their widow mother, Sheila who coping with the loss of her husband by seeing other people. This does not mean in any way that she is a bad mother, but it does make for an interesting story. This series can and does get rather suggestive and graphic but nothing a crowd of 15 and older couldn’t handle.


The only reason why I bring this up is because it showed me something I keep avoiding over and over and it’s really starting to bug me. The series did end on a happy note, but there is still more to it as Naylor continues his comics in a second series called ‘Original Life’. But it’s not the comic I was going to talk about. It’s the generation of the comic.


I’ve lived my life under a rock, you might say, a sort of tunnel vision to a social life. My previous excuse to this was, and I quote ‘I have a social life. It’s on Xbox Live and IRC’. So I’m prepared to do things differently. Starting in February 2010, I’m going to go out more often, and take it one step at a time. I’m going to get a little fit, post more comics, and socialize with furries around the springs. I’m also going back to school so those people who keep telling me to update on their terms, kindly shut up. January has been a busy month for me already.


Anyways, that’s my blog entry for January. Subscribe via Atom RSS if you want to read about my life or any art or comic reviews in general.
