I finished episode nine of A Coming Out Story last weekend, and I have a road trip coming up in another couple of weekends. I’ll be on the road for most of the month of July, first going to visit some friends in the mid-west, then out to the Four Corners area to explore a tad more, then to California and a visit with my brother, then to Portland Oregon and the O’Reilly Open Source Developer’s Conference. Given my past performance getting out new episodes it seemed a sure bet that I wouldn’t have anything more up until August at the earliest. But I have a head of steam up now, and I really really want to get episode ten up before I leave for the west. It’s one of several upcoming ones I’ve been chafing at the bit to do since I started scripting this series in 2005.<\/p>\n
So I’ve been trying hard to push everything else in my life aside for a couple hours every night after work. Naturally several things suddenly popped up that needed my immediate attention and I thought I was once again letting precious drawing time pass on by. But somehow I’ve managed to finish half the pencils on episode ten already. I’m shooting to have all the pencils done by the end of this coming weekend. Then I can have the episode up for sure by the following weekend. Or even sooner.<\/p>\n
I’ll probably take my portable drawing board (it has a parallel attached to it), my small scanner, the Wacom tablet and drawing supplies along with me on the trip. I might be able to get another episode out while I’m on the road. It really bothers me that I’ve been working on this thing since 2005 and it’s 2007 I only have nine episodes up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
