Hey everyone,

One of the reasons I’m beginning to thaw out miy site and get it up to speed is I’m getting ready to announce a commission list. If you haven’t heard about this before, here is a link to my policy on commissions and how to sign up for notifications. This is the first time in 2 years I’m doing them, so follow the link if you are interested.

Hello, Hello, yes I am still alive The site has been dead for the last 9 months, but I’m still alive and working. I realized I was just talking to myself on the site, not updating it with content and generally not talking too much to anyone about it. I intend for lots of changes to come up in the next few days, let’s hope I actually do them.

Sorry for the week or so of no posts. I had a guest for a little over a week, and immediately needed to finish up all my late work right afterward. I will try and be better in the future, but I am probably going to screw up again. Honesty hurts sometimes.

Just another business-like update, specifically giving information about the comic convention shows I currently am planning on attending this summer and early fall. You can find all the information on the sidebar to the right or by clicking here.

I’ve been getting a lot of requests for information on commissions and art sales, so I’ve decided to get off my laziest of butts and write up the information in an easy-to-get, no-need-to-wait form. It should give all those interested all the information they need to know about my art sales, my commission process and subjects in between. It’s in my side bar to the right, or you can just follow the link here.

Sorry for the lack of updates. No real news as of yet as to what I am working on next, but it gives me time to go home for the holidays. I am at my parent’s house, but it took me all of yesterday to get here to Wisconsin from Florida. It’s been bad in the northwest the last few days, and after a full day of waiting I eventually got here before the really bad snows via bus ride from Minneapolis. so I will be catching up with the STOTD right away.

Not strictly site news, but I have started uploading to a bunch of different galleries to spread my pile of stuff all over the web. I got a new gallery at deviantart.com. comicspace.com, flickr.com and comicartfans.com. I am creating a new category for all my personal galleries over in the links area. Look over to the side to see them. They all at this point are just the stuff here, and I will be posting stuff here before I post stuff anywhere else, so keep on checking back.

It took weeks of me fumbling, but the site is live. It’s much easier to make posts, so I hope I will post a little more and you people are free to comment. Please make sure to use the contact form if you have any problems or suggestions on the site. I’ll be adding some bookmarks and some other stuff over the next couple days, but the gallery is live and that was the most work by far.

Well, I’m going to see what I can do over the next few days to improve as usage starts up.

I know I’m pretty much just writing to myself, but I really want to make sure everything is up and working before I go live with the new site. I see my friend Scott Kurtz is also using WordPress, so that makes me pretty sure I did a smart thing as he’s another ultra web-savvy individual. Hopefully by tonight someone besides myself will actually be seeing this puppy.
