Debbie Ridpath Ohi at Inkygirl.com has some incredible comics -- themed on Nanowrimo as well as another year-round series "Will Write For Chocolate." They rock. She's hilarious. Here's one of them, I'll just post the embed link -- she posts them with a creative commons attribution license, as long as they're not for profit and you link to her site you can repost them. Or retweet them, she's got twitter set up too.

Okay, now let's see if this works...

I'm opening up the commission list for custom deer antler rune and ogam sets again! This will probably be the last set of commissions I do before the holidays, so if you were looking for gift sets, now's the time to get on the list!

( Information, pictures and current list under the cut )

Please feel free to pass this on to anyone you may think is interested, to include people who may not be on Livejournal--they can contact me at whishthound (at) gmail.com. And thank you! :)

I got Chapter 11 done at 11:30, though I added a fem more words of more dialogue at the end once I'd posted on NaNoWriMo in the "Shoutout" forum on the 50k thread. It was 51,693 when I thought I'd finished, just expanded by a few more words as I did the synopsis.

The cats have learned lore from the African lion, who has adopted them as brothers. He turned out to be rather deep and clever, aware of a lot of things including the presence of the Blight and the human it possesses. He chose not to accept its temptation to break him out of the zoo because he knew he'd die if he went around killing humans. He had already avenged his brother's killer, a poacher, by leading him into the camp of some game wardens -- which was how he got captured and wound up sold to a zoo anyway, he got a leg wound and they fixed him up. I think he's a little more than an ordinary lion. I think he's a rather large magecat of another species and has some of the same type of supernatural connection the small ones do -- and they will realize that as they think about it. Or if they run into other, dumber lions.

Onward.

They have been warned -- don't kill the prey-enemy with your mouth, then it gets inside you. Kill with your claws as if it was a cobra. Magic isn't tainted because Magic did it right and it didn't try to invade him -- he startled it when he attacked it and did cleanse himself of the monster's blood in his pool-swim. It's not a virus or bacterium, it's an evil spirit -- not the same thing at all.

Ever have a project that you love the idea of and get all excited about?

Ever have the people around you tell you that it just won't work?

Ever choose to proceed anyway?

I'm in that place right now. In my head, this project turns out wonderfully, but on my loom?

We'll see.



Meanwhile, I'm trying to take to heart this poem:

Risk
by Lisa Colt

My teacher says,
You've got to stink first.

I tell her, I don't have time to stink -
at 64 years old
I go directly to perfection
or I go nowhere.

Perfection is nowhere,
she says, So stink.
Stink like a beginner,
stink like decaying flesh,
old blood,
cold sweat,
she says,
I know a woman who's eighty-six,
last year she learned to dive.


How do you handle taking creative risks?

Or any risks at all?

Dinosaur Coloring Page
6" x 9"
Black ballpoint pen on paper

Sascha came in after I wrote my chapter and wanted to watch dinosaurs. We watched "Alpha's Egg" together and she asked me to draw Alpha and her little baby. Then Dragonfly the aucasaur, a baby theropod, and his mommy, so I put the mother theropod's foot in the picture and threw in a land crocodile headed for the nest. It's a coloring page, feel free to copy it off and color it or email or message me asking for a full size one so you can print it out and color it. If you color it, I want to see how it looks though, and if you post the colored version you must credit me for the drawing, preferably with a link to this blog or my oil pastels page.

Now I want to get another chapter done tonight. I've napped and I'm awake again.

In Japan, it is hip to say "My boom is....(and then insert what you're into at the moment)".  SO, my boom is masking tapes.  These all come from Japan and I have just recently started playing with them.  Look for MT tapes...that is the brand.  They are slightly see through and I will be doing a video on using them soon.  Certainly NOT something you need but if these look like your cup of tea, you might want to search some out.

http://teeshascircus.blogspot.com/2009/11/journaling-materials-misc.html

So, the woman behind these PanPastels emailed me after stumbling across my video where I used them.  Come to find out, her company is just her and her husband who do it all.  I was thrilled because I love to support smaller, non corporate companies.  I really think their product is cool and am excited to use them more in my paintings and other ways.  Anyway...each color comes in a tint and a shade and a regular.  After I had bought 2 or 3 singly, I purchased the whole set of "shade" colors and really like them best for what I do in my journal.  I really haven't found much use for the lighter colors, but am sure I will one of these days.

copic markers (sketch).  I love them.  I know I said you can get them from our website but we haven't been able to get them up yet (I know...we're not good market-ers).  We sold them in sets at Journalfest.  We have one set of orange pink, yellow and red, one set of blues & greens, one set of all the jewel tones; deep red, deep blue, a dark olive and dark brown (good set to have) and the 4th set is all lighter but muted.  this set is really good for swirlies in the background.  Anyway...the sets are $24 each ...oh and we sell just black for $6.  should be up within a few days.

This is my favorite adhesive but any similiar type of tape works just as well.  Yes, you will go through maybe 3 refills on one 16 page journal but the ease of use is well worth it.
