I have some fanart of Mysteries of the Arcana I am working on that should be done soon-ish. After that, I have a pile of random crap I have promised people, which I will hopefully be faster on, so expect that.

Life has generally been good, need to sort out some trans related shit but it is good trans related shit not bad trans related shit. Me and :deviconHAmev: are being stupid lovey dykes together, and she is coming over to visit in July, which will be kickass and awesome : D : D  . Also going to America in July, back to where I was ]]> http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/Computeeeers-282618700 http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/Computeeeers-282618700 Tue, 31 Jan 2012 18:03:57 PST Computeeeers nonadult journals/personal Octapode http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/o/c/octapode.png?2 Copyright 2012-2013 ~Octapode
Just had to do a full reinstall of Windows. Not fun at all

On the plus side, it now works better than it did before, so that is something.

Update on me from last journal, NOTHING IS EVER SIMPLE. That said, I am a MtF trans genderqueer panromantic lesbian tomboy. ]]> http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/In-which-I-come-out-on-twitter-276579092 http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/In-which-I-come-out-on-twitter-276579092 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 20:45:23 PST In which I come out on twitter nonadult journals/personal Octapode http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/o/c/octapode.png?2 Copyright 2011-2013 ~Octapode
So for the people who don't follow me on twitter, I have realised I am a trans tomboy.

Fuck yeah tomboys.

That  is all ]]> http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/Updates-272394120 http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/Updates-272394120 Sun, 04 Dec 2011 14:55:11 PST Updates nonadult journals/personal Octapode http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/o/c/octapode.png?2 Copyright 2011-2013 ~Octapode
Today We Burn started, ran and then skidded to a halt when I realised I really didn't like the art. So that is on pause while I work out how to draw it quickly but decently.

I will be getting a tablet and second monitor for christmas, which will be good and useful. My new computer should be back and fixed soon, so that is good (it should hopefully be able to handle 300 dpi full A4, which would be nice).

Started work on a new comic, with a goal of drawing it as prettyful as I am capable, with no fixed update schedule (because drawing well takes lots of time).

I think that's everything. ]]> http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/Today-We-Burn-will-restart-at-some-point-262434538 http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/Today-We-Burn-will-restart-at-some-point-262434538 Sat, 08 Oct 2011 19:27:33 PDT Today We Burn will restart at some point nonadult journals/personal Octapode http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/o/c/octapode.png?2 Copyright 2011-2013 ~Octapode
I will be changing it quite a bit, based on what worked last time and what was a pile of crap. So far, I have decided to create at least some semblance of a plan for the first chapter BEFORE I start drawing, I'm going to come up with a better start point, and I'm going to write some decent characters as well. Art-wise, I will not be shading and instead of pre-drawing the panels on computer I will be hand-drawing them as I pencil. hopefully this will work better, and I will write the dialouge before-hand so ]]> http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/OTENBA-Files-birthday-picture-is-finally-done-261893189 http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/OTENBA-Files-birthday-picture-is-finally-done-261893189 Wed, 05 Oct 2011 15:08:59 PDT OTENBA Files birthday picture is finally done! nonadult journals/personal Octapode http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/o/c/octapode.png?2 Copyright 2011-2013 ~Octapode
Hopefully all the shading is done and I haven't missed anything, but given how much effort it took there might well be some mistakes in there.

I will be sticking the unshaded groups up at some point, because I ended up covering quite a bit of the detail I included with the final piece. ]]> http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/Page-7-253500361 http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/Page-7-253500361 Wed, 17 Aug 2011 15:23:29 PDT Page 7 nonadult journals/personal Octapode http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/o/c/octapode.png?2 Copyright 2011-2013 ~Octapode http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/Smackjeeves-site-244612604 http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/Smackjeeves-site-244612604 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 15:04:43 PDT Smackjeeves site nonadult journals/personal Octapode http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/o/c/octapode.png?2 Copyright 2011-2013 ~Octapode
I still intend to upload the pages here as well, so the Smackjeeves page just serves as a way to share the comic clutter free. ]]> http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/New-page-is-up-244460438 http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/New-page-is-up-244460438 Sun, 24 Jul 2011 18:49:12 PDT New page is up nonadult journals/personal Octapode http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/o/c/octapode.png?2 Copyright 2011-2013 ~Octapode
There is a new page up, and it is shiny. I am definitely going to start on the next page earlier on in the week, but I am sure I will end up working on it at 2 in the morning at some point. Such is the way of things. My new phone is still very shiny and fancy, and I am still finding out half the cool things it can do, which is good fun.

I has a twitter! http://twitter.com/#!/Octapode

All I post is random thoughts and complaints, but maybe someone out there finds that interesting. Who knows.

I'm going to bed. ]]> http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/New-Phone-244019452 http://octapode.deviantart.com/journal/New-Phone-244019452 Fri, 22 Jul 2011 07:20:22 PDT New Phone! nonadult journals/personal Octapode http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/o/c/octapode.png?2 Copyright 2011-2013 ~Octapode
I managed to lose my old phone in Cambridge (it was in an open hoodie pocket and I was running down the street, so it was completely my fault) and therefore needed a new phone. Being me, I procrastinated about searching for a phone for ages, but I finally got round to looking and picked up a Galaxy Apollo.

It is shiny :D

To be clearer, it is a very nice phone, definitely better than my old phone, it runs Android, which is nice, and I forsee many many hours of Angry Birds in my near future. Plus, I no longer have to rely on Skype as my sole means of communication, which is good. It also means I can listen to music without ]]>
