Updates have been sporadic at best the last two weeks, and I’m sorry for that. I’m lame.

I’m moving to Portland at the end of the month, and a lot of my time has been sucked into getting ready for that. On top of that, I’ve been experiencing some weird writer’s block; three comics that I’ve written and done panels and lettering for have lost my interest suddenly, before completion.

Part of all this, I think has to do with being so busy, and in general Los Angeles just bringing me down. I’ll toss some comics up over the next couple of weeks, but probably not as many as usual.

Still, be ready for August, when, once I’m settled, things’ll kick back up into crazymode!

See you then!

Sorry for the delay; I went through something of a miniature creative crisis.

I had an autobiographical comic ready for Monday that I held off until Tuesday. It was about the house I’m currently renting in, the landlord, the neighborhood, and the general lame-ness of them all. The punchline involved the supposition that, since there’s nothing illegal going on, my only recourse would be to defile my rent check.

Looking at the comic, I realized that it wouldn’t exactly be the smartest thing to put that online, especially since I’ll be looking for somewhere to live within the next few weeks, and will probably be sharing links to Chikin Guy with potential roommates.

In addition, I’d gotten a call from work in response to the Baby Dropping Comic the other week. They were worried for my sake, in case anyone involved in the actual occurrence should read the comic and get all offended (I’ll reiterate now that the comic is full of lies and fictions in order to make it more interesting).

Because of all this “hitting too close to home” stuff, I kinda receded. But yesterday, I drew this little Beetlebaum comic, and I’m quite happy with it; I didn’t write up a script for it or use a ruler/t-square to make the panels, both things I typically have done for every comic in the last few months. Getting back to the simplicity of direct, spontaneous comicking was quite refreshing.
