It didn't occur to me that it was a new month until today. Oops. Ha ha ha.
Punching people in the face is one of my favorite things to draw, in case you hadn't noticed.
In other exciting internet news, I've started a Twitter account. I'll probably post updated to it, because that seems useful. I also started a Blogger account, mostly to follow my friends, but I made a cute header image, so I kinda wanna use it for something? Maybe post my comic strips there? Make a separate sketch blog? I don't know. Speaking of comic strips, I posted a new one at my regular blog.

I fixed most of the problems with the site (the Wasted Minds archive pages). For whatever reason, the font in the news and link sections are too big, but I can't figure out why. I fail at web design. :/

Oh god, it's been a year and a half since I last updated. Oops. I guess I wasn't joking about there not being an update "next week" from my last post. XD Anyway, no use making excuses. I proved to myself last week that I could do work in a short amount of time if I set deadlines for myself, so hopefully webcomic updates will be deadliney enough. For the time being, I'll only be updating on Thursdays. If I can get back to my old work schedule, I'll go back to Mondays and Thursdays. We shall see...
As for new stuff, I've reprinted Wasted Minds Vol. 1 with a brand new cover, and I have a couple new mini comics about (all are below). I also started posting comic strips to my blog and my deviant art (same comics, two locations). They're more or less autobiographical, and updated at my leisure.
I've also finally updated the Wasted Minds site!
