Lazy sundays...

Not working five days a week means my body should really make no distinction between a Sunday and any other day of the week. Right. Well, tell that to my body. I woke up (late) this morning, at 9:30, after sleeping past BOTH of my set alarms. Today I allotted to go do laundry, but it's already 10:30 and I have no desire whatsoever to shower, dress, or do anything even remotely related to laundry. (Edit: I did do my laundry, and was very proud of myself for it.)

What I want to do instead I'm going to force myself to wait until after I get BACK from laundry. Otherwise it won't ever get done. Well, part of it could be problematic. But drawing just doesn't work as well in the laundromat. I've done it before, of course, but it never turns out as well as I want it to. It's a homework emergency only sort of thing. Normally I read or try to write out something that's been haunting me. What I want to do is to draw more of the webcomic I'm working on.

Why, you ask? Well, I finally saw Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End last evening, and I was inspired by all the period clothing and the jaunty adventure music. (I am terribly fond of jaunty adventure music.) It makes writing go so much better when I've got something that inspires me to put fingers to keyboard, and jaunty music will do it 9 times out of 10.

In the music I had only one qualm, really. I'm still not sure how I felt about the guitar in the 'parlay' sequence between the two entourages. Other than that, I was happy with 90% of it, and that's really all I think anyone can ask about anything that's churned out by joint ventures in Hollywood.

Speaking of writing, however! I'm most pleased to announce that the Kavidog Press website is up. (No, it's not one of mine, buuut...) Kavidog Press is the small press that will be publishing my book The Wendy That Stayed!! I'm very excited about working on it, as I get to work with some amazing people. Seth A. Jones, owner / publisher from Kavidog Press - an amazingly talented artist who tends to work in the realm of pencil and puts my pencil work to shame; and Julie Collins-Rousseau -another amazingly talented artist, wonderful teacher, and a good soul to know.

It's time to go do more productive things, like manuscript editing. Type at y'all laters.
