Finished another book this very minute. You gotta make the best of your jetlag - amazing, the amount of work one can get done between the hours of midnight and six am. Now I can take time off to ink page four of the comic *rubs hands in glee*. Maybe even the next three pages as well, the pencilling is as good as done. I'm itching to try out that comic pro art board I bought at Comic Con.

ros_fod's journal and read her account of meeting with Vincent Kartheiser. (Scroll down the comments. Link courtesy of

---Here's something I'd been meaning to link to and forgot. (link found at

yhlee's.) Holly Black on writing a graphic novel. It's also interesting to read this from an artist's POV... hm, normally I don't give the storytelling that much (conscious) thought but rather follow my gut. But reading the comments, I'm suddenly in the mood to post about this, too but first

jwaneeta and I have to share her theory on Harry Potter.
---Now that I have a few days off, maybe I can figure out how to get the tv in my new computer to work. I don't really miss having a tv picture since I mostly put it on audio-only anyway. But without Sky's tv guide I have no idea what's on. Those vivo graphics cards are cool, but a pain to configure.

I mailed a book to the inker today too, so maybe I can sit down and try to write my crazeh Harry Potter theory tomorrow evening. I feel terribly shy about it, I must admit. :}

Reposted because I completely misunderstood the original comment. :D

Whee. *high five!*<
My editor called back right away to tell me she loves the artwork. No changes. Again: whee. That's really good because all I want to do is sleep all day long, and all through the night, and I can do that now without feeling bad.

Ha. We can post it together. And it's a solid theory. I actually feel pretty awake at the moment, maybe I'll write something down myself, see if I remember it right.

btw, did you try switching your mouse to the other side?

Erm, whoopsie. Not yet. I've been downstairs on the laptop because my studio air conditioner broke, so it slipped my mind. Will do it today. It's only rational... the minute I started drawing my elbow kicked up again.

Sleep is the great healer! I hope you have a truly epic sleep.

Oh, and thanks for the bookfair dates. That's a huge help!

HP... Man, I forgot how much there is going on in these books. I browsed yesterday for theories. Fascinating stuff. I shall reread HBP now.

darn, my keyboard switched to American somehow and now I can't switch it back and I don't know where everyting is. But at least I can read kanji again.
