I haven't updated this for a while, wasn't certain what to say. So I thought I would take a few minutes this morning to do a quick update of my DA page.

I've been posting new images, here and there. I've been working with a new artist tool I got for christmas. A Intuos wacom tablet. It's been fascinating the differences between the tablet and mouse, and I think it helps my artwork a lot.

My last piece, Moon Woman, worked out very well. A lot of time went into it, but the end result was worth it. I may do more in that similar style.

I've had to stop going to the market for a while, since it hasn't been paying off for me. So I've decided to adjust my sales to work with the store here in Brantford, and work through commissions.

All my 8.5 by 11 prints will be $10 plus shipping if anyone has any they want by the way. In canadian dollars.

Also been returning to writing some. I have a full manuscript of just under 40,000 words that I had previously published through Lulu. New Life. I've dusted it off and repaired some typos in it. I've looked it over again and yes.. I still love the story. I'm just.. considering what to do with it.

For the moment, it sits in a file waiting. I want to get it printed off and have it looked over. Perhaps this is one I can actually do More with. Then have sit and rot.

There may be a few art pieces coming to gather interest and attention to it. If I can find a small press willing to publish a book under 40,000 words it may be a solution.. or maybe I should go through it and extend it a little more? But I hate adding things just to boost the word count.

Walkerofshadows suggested maybe posting a few of the chapters to let people get a taste for it. That may be coming as well.

Overall, 2009 is starting off as a year for a Lot of questions and reformating how I'm doing things. Money is tight, for everyone. And unless I want to send up getting a menial part time job to pay my osap.. I'm going to have to pick things up.

Keep safe,
