1 Month Later

Gawd, I am one lazy bastard.

I haven't been feeling much inspiration for writing anything lately. A couple weeks ago I had starting writing the next chapter of King Ranter's story (which I need to think of a real title for) but I wasn't feeling it. I kept doubling back to make edits, and I got about halfway through before I had to stop. Looking at it now, it's absolutely fucking awful, and I need to rewrite it if I plan to continue. The flashback chapter is definitely dragging on too long for me and I wish I could wrap it up, so I might actually cut out the fight scene there and see if I could possibly start writing whatever the fuck I want. There's a LOT of stuff that I've come up with recently that I'd like to write about, but I've not really felt like getting on with the story as is.

I wasn't initially going to release this information directly on the blog, but I don't think anything's going to get done about it anyways. I want to start a webcomic around some of the characters in King Ranter's story. I wouldn't plan to compete with other official webcomics out there, and this would sort of just be an addition to the blog. I would still have chapters of the story and rants here and there, stuff like that, but I think a webcomic would be fun. Here's the problem.

I can't draw worth shit.

If I wanted to start a webcomic, I would need (NEED) a fucking artist. I have concept art for the characters I want incorporated, but it's not really concept art as much as it is stick figure versions of the characters with hair and a general clothes design. None of it is drawn well, and I wouldn't mind so much if I could actually draw those characters out into different positions with ease. If I could, I wouldn't need an artist. But I can't, so I do. I am opening this job to anyone. As long as you can computer draw and as long as you are reliable enough to draw shit up for me when I need it (and it won't be daily or anything, or even scheduled,) then you've got the job. It wouldn't be a paying job, mind you, but maybe you'll find it fun, too. Seriously, a long as you can sort of draw, even if you're not that good, you could probably pull it off better than me. I wouldn't be able to make myself do it without it looking really good as far as stick figures go, and it would take me a VERY LONG TIME to do that. And I don't have lots of time.

Don't expect posts too soon or anything. This is just so my readers know the place isn't closed down, it's just bored. Not that there are many readers or anything.

PS. The blog's got a new look that I designed. Hope you like it.
