So yeah, this week and, hopefully next, I'll have gotten enough comic pages done to rebuild the buffer I squandered this past two months.

In my defense, I was suffering from a nasty bacterial sinus infection that was dripping gunk into my lungs through most of September to the end of November.

"Why didn't you go to a doctor earlier?" you would be right in asking.

I didn't want to sit in a walk-in clinic for three or four hours with a hundred other sick people while I was struggling to breathe, is the answer. Masked or no, a weakened immune system is a weakened immune system.

Now, I was busy being artistic that entire time the buffer ticked down. It was a lot easier to stare at a piece of paper for a few hours than it was staring at a monitor so developing new ideas was the order of the day. It's just that a bunch of rough sketches (I use my sketch books for sketching. Not for finished art I try to pass off as a sketch.) and concept notes don't make for art people care to see.

Also, I'll need to get a job this summer so anything creative needs to get done now.
