  • Brief Blog-Urge (and art pictures!)

    Current mood: blog-urged

    I am still alive. The blog-urge has not left me, it is just hard to find time to draw anymore, and I hate posting a blog without a drawing.

    Here is a sculpture I am working on:

    And here is something Genevieve painted recently (which I think is beautiful!):

  • Pixel Angel (pixelation)

    Current mood: pixelated

    I drew this inside the OHRRPGCE‘s built-in sprite editor. I drew it for the Castle Paradox Miss Pixel 2007 contest, but I was just a few hours too late for the ending deadline :(

  • Leviathan (book-on-mp3)

    Current mood: scratchy and staticy

    I have finally tried my hand at something I have wanted to do for quite some time– a Book on MP3! I recorded myself reading my short story Leviathan. The sound quality is bad, because all I had to record with was my laptop’s build-in microphone, and if you listen carefully you can hear my cat and dog chasing each other around in the background, but overall I think it is pretty listenable. To hear it, go to click here

    I offer 1000 cool points™ to anyone who can record a better version of this :)

  • Black Rabbits Scootering Club (sketch)

    Current mood: patchy

    This is Bosco. He is applying to join the Black Rabbits Scootering Club. He owns his own motorcycle, and has been riding solo for about a year-and-a-half. He has never been in a motorcycle gang before. He is secretly hoping to meed a nice biker babe and start a family.

    He doesn’t know a lot about motorcycles, but he is totally pretty sure that his isn’t a cardboard box.

  • 202 key Keyboard

    Okay, all you hackers better be jealous of me now, because I finally got ahold of my very own NmrgTech 202 Key keyboard. Only manufactured from october 1994 to january 1995 by now-defunct Bulgarian computer manufacturer NmrgTech, the NmrgTech202 is one of the most sought-after pieces of keyboard history.

    It features function keys F1-F21, F0, FN and F*, plus tab, vtab, backspace, double-backspace, sidespace, switchspace, diagonal arrow keys, extended numeric pad with common fractions, “eject” button, hard-power-off button (conveniently located right next to the space-bar) CAPSLOCK, lcaselock, StudlyCapsLock, blocklock, blockbreak, and of course all standard alphabetic keys with QUERTY/DVORAK shift-states, plus diatribes for every single non-cyrillic european language, not to mention the exclusive letter “vluh” forgotten letter of the alphabet, which was written on a parchment by the ancients and locked in a cave in a mountain for a thousand years and not permitted to be used in any words of any language until it was discovered by NmrgTech engineers who were on a vacation to Nepal.

  • Queen of the Dinosaurs (sculpture)

    Current mood: no text




  • Kittens With Mittens (the revenge!)

    Current mood: Mitteny

    Thanks to my friends at CastleParadox, I bring you Revenge Of The Kitten Wearing Mittens!:

  • Kitten Wearing Mittens (doodle)

    Current mood: Chocolate Cake



  • 50000 world novel in 30 days?

    Current mood: Writerlusting


    http://www.nanowrimo.org/
    A friend of mine today informed me of the National Novel Writing Month contest. It sounds like a lot of fun, and I haven’t been doing very much writing since my collection of short stories, so the idea of trying to write a 50000 world novel in one month is really very appealing… The catch of course, is that I haven’t had much free time lately (as evidenced by my lamentable lack of block postings here) so whether or not I will be able to pull it off is… debatable.

  • Rolling the Dog

    Current mood: Doggified

    It has been simply ages since I have posted anything! Just to prove I am still alive, here is a video clip of Genevieve and I playing with the dog

    Actually, come to think of it, all this clip proves is that the Dog is alive… Maybe I am dead, and the dog is blogging for me. Whoa… creepy…
