Status Update

I have seriously been slacking on the whole "becoming a successful writer and creator" thing. To be fair, i'm taking a summer class so I actually do have some studying to do. My biggest problem is starting projects that i don't finish. I just need to work on, and finish, ONE project at this point. There are a shit ton of comics that I would like to do, in addition to a short film that i've been working on for years. It looks like I may either be going back to school full time or working a lot come this fall, so i'm going to have to get going. At times, I doubt my own ability to become a writer, rather than, somebody that just writes. I need to convince myself that there's no reason I SHOULD'NT write everyday. There's a little more to it these days, as I have some other stuff on my plate, but I need to finish some of this shit. At some point.

Reading wise, i've got a couple cool things going on. I've decided to just tackle three or four books/subjects this summer. They are as follows:


The Invisibles by Grant Morrison and company


Batman. I'm going to immerse myself in the decades of rich mythology done on the dark knight. I've been neglecting Batman for years, and for some reason, now is the time to do my homework on him.


Crossing The Rubicon by Michael C. Ruppert


The Complete Works of William Shakespeare. It's also time for me and the bard to really get acquainted.

So yeah, a healthy dose of research and fun stuff.
