gC#4, issue 2 completed. To be released soon!

I finished the cover of issue 3 which will appear at the end of the soon-to-be-released issue 2. My wife, Juliekat, has completed the proofreading, and I have made the needed corrections. The PDF is nearly done, and I will be taking a last minute read through.

However, today turned into an unexpected crazy "real life" work day, and seriously delayed what I had hoped to be the release day (today)! I still have to set-up the store and finalize the PDF. I doubt that will happen tonight, as I have other responsibilities I have to attend to. I hope to have a release by Wednesday! It's too bad, though, as today would have been a great day for a release, as it was my birthday! :)

[Edit: You can get some sleep. Don't look for a release tonight. I have more to do on the issue than I have energy right now. And thanks for all the birthday wishes!]

    Happy Birthday!

    Maybe next one I'll draw you a gift.

    Actually, when is the 5th anniv of the site? I could do a piece for that in the future.

    Thanks for ALL the birthday wishes!!

    @Ralph: get some sleep tonight. I have more to do than I have the energy for. Hopefully Wednesday!

    @Bleu_Artist: you'd better get cracking! The 5 year anniversary is in 10 days!! (July 30, 2005, "grOw/cOmic#1, Milk Farm" was released). ;D

    @Anonymous#4: Same date? Cool! I always remember since it's the same date (not year) that man walked on the moon! :) (July 20, 1969).

    Again, THANKS for all the new b-day wishes! :)

    @Dane: You are correct, it's been long. One of the longest time periods between issues, unfortunately. I hope this doesn't happen again, but there is no telling when "RL" work comes a knocking for a freelance graphic designer like myself. Thanks for your patience!

    Hope everyone enjoys the new issue! It has JUST been released!

    Hmmm, clock is ticking?

    I think I'll take a rain-check.

    Besides, I'm already 2 years behind on a prize/request from one guy on DA.

    I have had some ideas in mind for some BE artwork. Part of my crazed psyche thinks I need to diversify a bit...but it's just hard to find something that would be unique.

    I think I may have one story, with BE being experienced from 3 different perspectives: confusing for one, excitement for another, and annoying for a third.
