This week, I’ve been able to do a lot of drawing. Tomorrow’s strip just needs to scanned and cleaned up then it’ll be posted. Next week’s strip is about 35% done, and the week after was started last night. There’s a strip about three weeks away that has also been done, and that strip will mark the last strip for collection into minicomic form, which shall be known as Bunkee #5, which I should have done in time for MegaCon.

The first print run of Bunkee #5 will be done in the old minicomic style of me printing these myslef and assembling them by hand. There just won’t be enough time to print them through ka-blam for a first print run, but the second printing will be done through ka-blam, and available through IndyPlanet. The annotations for each strip will be at the back of Bunkee #5, a running thing from here on out.

Pretty soon, a link for Threat of the Cybergirl will be on the links side of the web site, which will take you to the IndyPlanet listing, where you can order a copy print on demand, which will start happening for most everything done through ka-blam.

Also, check out  my e-bay listings, as I’m selling a few things lying around. I could use the extra cash, and if I can figure out the anatomy, a special little drawing I’m working on will show up there before making its way onto Etsy.

Well, as I’ve been updating on Twitter, I’ve been doing the heavy job search for full time gainful employment here in warm and (very importantly this month) snow-free Orlando. The success rate has been zero and a very promising lead from Monday has not progressed past the point that I left it. That’s discouraging, but I’ve tried not to let it get me down and I’m still hopeful that something may happen in the near future. If so, then this plan of action is moot (Hopefully, it doesn’t materialize after I’ve executed this plan). Now, let me explain the plan of action.

I’m moving back to North Carolina. I’ll continue to scour want ads in the next week just in case a last minute option comes about, but for the most part, I’ll be watching North Carolina want ads more than Orlando ones. Hopefully I’ll have better luck in the Lenoir/Hickory/Charlotte area, but the further I have to travel for work, the more it needs to pay. I’m really looking for office work, as that’s what I’ve been doing for the past nine years. I’ll also set up the web site to showcase a little more design work and maybe get a little freelance work. That part is a loose plan, but let’s go back to firmer parts of the plan.

I still need to talk to my friends here in Orlando to get a sense of the exact date that I’ll be moving. I can’t afford to stay in Orlando long, and once I move the real pressure is on to get full time employment as quickly as possible to avoid prospects worse than having to move to North Carolina. I am trying to look on the bright side of the move, if for no reason other than to avoid thinking about moving all of the books I own again. I do look forward to attending Sunday meetups with the Gastonia Society for FreeThought. I hope to be able to attend HeroesCon, which is something I may not have been able to do from down here. I do look forward to being close to my family, since they are growing older. I most importantly look forward to making my life better. The past four months have been hard, and next few weeks will be harder, as I have to leave good friends that have supported me as I made a huge transition. They also got me drawing again, and that is something that I will not let ebb away from the drawing sessions.

The drawing being brought up, let me assure you that I’ll try to keep the strip on weekly Monday updates. A week may get missed in the near future, but not in the next two weeks. The great thing about ComicPress is that I can pre-load the updates. I’m also going to reprint Jet-Pack Jenny and the Flight of the Virginia Dare with Ka-Blam, in one volume with annotations at the back of the book. Bunkee #5 will be coming as well, again, with annotations towards the back of the book.

In the meantime, please check out the commissions page, the shop page and my Etsy store if you want to help out in any way. Commissions may take a little longer as I’ll be spending a lot of time packing up boxes, but I will get to any requests as quickly as possible.
