Penciling on Kismet...
Finally, we're starting to get to the meaty plot stuff. Next week something happens that I've had in mind (and been looking forward to drawing) ever since the beginning ... well, the beginning of THIS incarnation of the story, anyway. You'll just have to wait and find out what it is. Mwahahahaha. And tonight I wrote out the rest of this chapter -- we're actually very close to the end. After this, there is just one more chapter and then an epilog/wrapup. I might actually finish Hunter's Moon before I'm too old to hold a pencil ...
Speaking of aging, today is my l'il brother's birthday. Happy birthday, brother. He's 22.
I also have to brag on my little sister, who is now working in a genetic engineering lab at Cornell University. GO LITTLE SISTER! She's part of a team that is working on finding a gene to protect potatoes against a particular strain of potato-killing fungus. I forget what she said it's called, but it not only kills the potatoes but also contaminates the soil, which is disastrous in poor, rural areas that depend on the crop, so her lab's work could potentially save thousands of lives ...
Off to sleep. G'night.

And you used to live in Champaign too, right? This is creepy ... :D

Seriously, though: I'm seriously annoyed that you apparently blew up the spaceport offstage. Whatever happened to 'show, don't tell?' Feh.

Seriously, I've been considering adding a page or two hereabouts when I put the story together as a graphic novel. There are a couple other parts of Hunter's Moon that I want to expand, edit or redraw -- the actual edits will probably only amount to adding a few extra pages, but there's stuff I want to put in that didn't make it into the current version as it stands, and the spaceport explosion may well be one of those things.
However, you won't be seeing it anytime soon.
