! - page eight

This was the roughest week yet in a rough new year, I think. The kids aren't sleeping well (well... Sophie, mostly) so that means we aren't getting any sleep. Jamon picked up a cold (so it's kind of like sick all over again). And then of course we picked it up too. Pile that on everything else that needs to get done every day (but quite often doesn't). For most of the week I've been like a sick-sick zombie with too much to do and no energy to do it. I feel lucky to have squeezed this page out.

(Aw, quit yer griping Tim)

Anyway... !, page eight here. I'm noticing a lot of visual echoes between the threads from page to page. Not quite planned... but I like it. Go ahead, see what you can find.

! - page seven

Not much to say for this week. Been keeping extremely busy without having much of anything to show for it. Here's ! page seven.

! - page six

Page six - and, wow! Where the hell have I been?

This new year has not been kind to me so far. Times've been tough and they're getting tougher, so posting will slack down here for a while as life slowly grinds me into a fine pulp.
I'm shelving Squirrel before it even really gets started. It's far too time consuming a process and what little time I have at this point needs to be focused elsewhere (i.e. non-blog stuff).
I'll continue to post ! pages as they're finished. Maybe one a week? More if I'm lucky. It's probably hard to follow, trickling out like this. When it's done I'll collect it in some form and you can see the thing all at once.
Beyond that, maybe I'll post some sketches and doodles and stuff. I've got a couple of projects that I just don't feel comfortable posting on here, at least until they're done. A rewrite of Lost and Found (hope none of you were too attached to that one as it appeared here) and a long-delayed project with Alexander Danner. So much to do, so little time...

Real life is kicking my ass right now.
