Bonus game with this one for anybody who wants to play: Guess which substance I was on when I drew it, post it in the comment field below, and the first correct guess gets a copy of Waste of Time #1 for free. As I started typing that sentence, I was thinking there wouldn’t be any prize, but I was struck with a sudden burst of generosity combined with a needy desire to see as many feedback comments as possible, so there you have it. Yep. Oh, I was also debating whether to talk a little about the comic, but this seemed easier than that, too. Good luck!

Aight, another boy portrait for the montage in my upcoming issue, if that all goes as planned. Hm. This is a little tough for me, because there’s a whole lot that I feel like saying about this particular boy at the moment, but I think I’m going to force myself into a rare for me (Very rare) display of discretion and not lay out a bunch of things that I’ll probably regret saying in the morning. Hm. Anyway. I will explain, though, as I’ve mentioned previously these drawings are part of a planned segment in a comic that I’m hoping to put together. All this stuff, actually, or at least a lot of it, is meant as part of a bigger picture, or bigger pictures, and longer series that I hope to do. I’m hoping that it will become clear(er) with not too much more time.
Here we go. This first post is a sketchbook page I did last year, and I don’t think it requires much explanation about what it is or why it’s here. I’ll take a few minutes, though, to explain my general intentions for this website. Such as they are thus far. My hope is to have the posts be a mixture of short strips, sketchbook pages, portraits, longer comic stories posted in installments, and maybe even prose or poetry pieces that are meant to accompany them. The more economical description of that would be, “I’m gonna post whatever I feel like posting.” The idea behind it, though, is hopefully a little more ambitious. It might not be apparent right at first, but most of these first short pieces I have in mind are intended for inclusion in a series of longer collections I’d like to eventually complete. I think that the interesting part of this, short of the potential for an entertaining train wreck, will be to see these story lines as they’re formed, and to take the short pieces that (hopefully) stand on their own, and gradually figure out more about how they fit together. Then again, some of them aren’t going to be part of any grand plan, and a lot of it I’ll be making up as I go along. Maybe that’ll be entertaining, too.
How will you know when to check back and see new comics, you ask? “I mustn’t miss a single delightful installment!” you exclaim? Posts will be, for the forseeable future and as often as I can possibly make myself adhere to my own guidelines, added three times a week: on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
