Next year I decided to start submitting to galleries, I'll probably be rejected, but then I'll pretty much be in the same place as I am now. I think my best work is my comic book pages, so maybe if I mat them and put in a fancy frame someone will bite. ]]></media:text>

        <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[ Right now on webcomicsnation I've separated out each volume of the Songbirds series, I was wondering if it would be easier if I just kept it all together since it's the same series? It makes no difference to me either way. Also about my updates would it be better to have one complete chapter or just a few pages as I finish them?  I know my updates are really slow, but I've gotten even more critical of my pages lately because I do eventually want to make that leap to professional comic artist. Oh and grad school is kicking my @ss, I really thought I could keep working and going to school with no problem but I was wrong. ]]></media:text>

The price is $7.50 :/ plus Lulu's s&h, so it's higher than I wanted.<br /> If enough people are interested I'll do a print run through comixpress, which would end up being cheaper, I could charge $7.50 which would include s&h, but I'd need at least 25 people to buy books to make it viable.

There are web comics that get that many hits in a day or week, so that puts it in perspective. I did promise to do a 100k hits special comic of  ZionexGavin (by a small vote) I'm also doing a giveaway of the zines for people. And next year will be the 10yr anniversary of Songbirds. I never thought I would be working on this story still. I've gotten two college degrees since I started :D ]]></media:text>

I've thumbnailed over 200 pages so far and that's not even half of it. I also decided to finish Songbirds series after I do this first volume of Legacy of Light. I started Songbirds back in 2001 after watching Earthian and listening to Bronze and Gravitation soundtracks. I didn't think I'd be working on it in 2008.

I think she added the 'i' for emphasis girls with girls soooo gross! guys bumping each other up the butt, cool!: gawd, gay male sex is so normal, when compared with lesbians, ends sarcasm:wtf:  According to Revrond Goodfaith, whether it's yuri or yaoi, all of y'all gonna burn in heellll.  Uh, I don't do yuri.

And anime too.<br /> I'm feeling better now, even tho flamers have called my yaoi art obscene, it does not fit the legal definition in any way.  I don't have to immigrate to Canada now.<br />No prison stripes for me! :D Also I got Kizuna 2 and Passion in. I like K2  it has more plot. Thought the last story is scary "one man bloom' eek!  I'm also reading latest Fruits Basket, I really want to see that anime, it is a good story.

        <media:text type="html"><![CDATA[ Civic duty done.<br />I voted Sunday, only took 5 hours.  2 hours in line, then 3 waiting for my number to be called. If you have to ask who I voted for you haven't seen my page. I voted in the best interests for me and any future kids I may have.<br />That aside, I'm hardly a frothy freak like some people:WTF?: Have we lost the middleground here?  Everyone in this country is so far apart, divided evenly between the 2 candidates.   Is the concept that other people may "dare" to have an opinion different from yours so important?  It's like watching a bunch of brats "I'm right! No, I'm right!"  It's time for a time out  or something.<br /> I'm actually too ]]></media:text>

I only switched to art history because my school doesn't have a drawing degree and I don't like painting, scuplture,etc...<br /> Also I am super pissed.

Still have to learn about the "issues" though.  Also my inner fan girl took over and I now have  L'arc en ciel's 'clicked 13 best' :love: I love it. It's soooo good. Damn it! I do not want to become a j-rock fan. I can barely keep up with my manga addiction! Yay! I finally read Yami no Matsuei, it's so great. And Alichino is coming next year. If I could draw like the artist on Alichino my life would be complete. Go tokyopop! On a really sad :( note my sister's cat died.  This is very depressing, I loved Angel so much.  She had to go to school and left him with her father, now I wish I had taken ]]></media:text>

I love Las Olas we ate at a cool restaraunt there. i had a shrimp maragarita (alchohal free) It had guacomole and beans. It was sooo good.<br />I'm very depressed now. We just finished moving and someone took some of my artwork. WTF?! I'm so pissed It was a huge piece, made up of 9 Songbirds Covers. I had to use Feng-shui themes, so I put so much work into it! AAAG, I wish I knew who that @sshole was so I could drop kick them.  It is partly my b/f fault. We were on the 3rd floor so he left the door unlocked while he was loading ]]></media:text>

Hurricane Frances shut school down for a week and a half.  So glad Frances passed us by. <br />The bad: I want to own mirage of blaze and it's $30 bucks per dvd,thats $120, that sucks. Frances is gone, but Ivan is still out there though. Also someone hit my car in the parking lot and now there a big dent in my car. If I hit someone's car I would leave a note or something and have my insurance cover it.
