Finding your purpose and/or finding a porpoise
Somewhere in the sky, possibly several miles up, I’m sitting in a small bathtub with a bear. The bear wears a top hat and a monocle. His ramshackle sky vessel is equipped with a tea pot, and so we pour and stare down at a city I made.
Progress is seen from 50,00 feet:
- All pages are now with balloons
- All pages are now lettered
- All pages are now extra funny
- Two animations done
- Two animations close to being done
- I’m hiring someone full-time who’s time will be spent on this book.
The bear is suspicious.
A step back:
- I’ve decided to add 150 more pages, nearly doubling the size of the book to 300 pages.
- I’ve rewritten the intro over 40 times.
- Two new animations started.
- A nearly complete game was lost when my computer crashed.
- I can’t solve for x.
The benefits of any creative project is that you’re never sure where you’ll end up. Had the bear and I began with a map the journey wouldn’t have been as fun. So we float.
I want to bring my “A+” game to online Pixelton comic and I can’t while doing the book. I want to bring my “A+” game to the cartoon video series and I can’t either. So, for the moment, both are on hold. Bummer. But I will be back. And then the focus will be completely online.
We’ll smile. And then I’ll offer you a ride with the bear, in the bathtub, above a city that you helped make.
If you’d like to receive an email when the book is ready I also have an email list going. Please subscribe if you’re tired of sad RSS posts.
Thanks so much,
