Finding the rhythm

I've been moving so quickly the past week that I feel myself getting ahead of my heartbeat, and what better way to set a pace than by that alone?

For the first time, I attended APE in San Francisco, and it was amazing. My first comicon experience, and probably the best one to attend, as far as my interests are concerned. Scads of people—many whose work I've been following for years—and plenty of other artists and crafters. It was very heartening, to talk to other independent artists on how they've succeeded in making their art alone for a living, and how they've put out their work at all costs regardless of whether or not it meant having two other jobs.

So, in a fit of 16-hour insanity (mostly spet debating which wordpress theme would match my aesthetics for a temporary site), I threw up a website the very next day. More to come.

There are many things on my plate right now—things to do, bills to pay, money to make, another steady job to get, art to make, art to document, a website to get up, business cards to print . . . well, one gets the idea.

And all so wonderful. What else is there to say.
