Sorry that took longer then I thought. Things have been a little hectic around here. Anyways, onto a nice little update! I've uploaded all of Chapter 5 into the Comics section, as well as added the few pages from Chapter 6 that I currently have. There's some new Prints, Mario Stickers, and Zelda Stickers available in the store. Also updated my own Personal Info. Lastly, uploaded a few new sketches and original pieces of artwork to the Gallery.
I'm currently working on a little something that'll hopefully bring the page back to it's old luster. With any luck, I'll be able to launch it before the end of the year. Other then that, I don't have much for ya. Hope you enjoy what's here!

Just a verbal update on what's happening. I just got back from Colossalcon, but I have to go home to Columbus for a week to babysit my parent's old dog. So all the con updates will have to go up next week. I'll have a bunch of artwork for y'all!
To all those people who visited my table this past weekend, I hope you all had as much fun as I did, and thanks for all the comments and ideas! I managed to get quite a few good ones! For those of you who wanted some artwork but didn't have the money for it, just head over to the Store. Not everything is up yet, but I'll have it all next week. Most of the stickers, prints, and posters are already up for your buying pleasure.
Hope you all have a wonderful week! I'll see you then!

A very happy Easter to all you who celebrate it. Hope you all got lots of candy!
Well, the April Fool's joke was aparently an even bigger hit then I thought it would be: alot of folks have been asking for it to remain up! So, just for the giggles, here's the site. I must admit, it was one of my favorite layouts of the old site. I've never managed to get a picture for each page after that site, and it made me sad to take it down. So there you all go. Have fun with the site, and if there's any bugs, just let me know.
In other news, I just finished my first two cons for the year (selling-wise anyway). Tekkoshocon in Pittsburgh was a huge hit, and the new location, while downtown, was awesome. So much space. People seemed more willing to buy this year, as apposed to last year when it was cramped and uncomfortable and way out of the way. Anime Punch was also a huge hit, and I FINALLY got to see the Protomen in concert (or at least the first part of it). I feel bad for anyone checking into the hotel though. The concert was held right behind hotel registration, and as the chant "Kill them all" in referance to robots was shouted, I noticed a fairly normal looking person at the desk look somewhat frightened.
So that's about all there is to report. I've got all the recent sellable artwork up, so if there was something you couldn't buy at the con, feel free to pick it up here.

Hope you all liked the April Fools for the site. I had the urge to re-live my old site and give the older fans a chance to look over and snag some of their favorite artwork and fan-fics that have long since dissapeared. But unfortunately, it was time to get back to the normal all so soon.
As I write, I'm sitting in Pittsburgh after two very successful days of selling at Tekkoshocon. Tomorrow (or rather, later today since it's 3am) will be my last day selling there before I rush back to Columbus and geat ready for Anime Punch next weekend. Fun! There's alot of new artwork that was done for the cons, and they will go up just as soon as both are over and I can get back to my desktop at home. I'm afraid my laptop doesn't have all the artwork I wish to update (and it's really getting hot on my lap so I wouldn't want to do much editing anyways).
To all you who visited my table at Tekko, I was so happy to bring joy (and misery) to so many. I know many of you remembered me selling from last year, and with any luck, I'll be returning next year. And with more fun stuff. After how crowded I was on the table, I'll probably have two tables next year.
Make sure to check back later this month for a full update!

Happy Friday the 13th, everybody! To celebrate, I've got a few little things for ya! The Gifts section is gone, and instead, all the gifts are now in their respective years. This cuts down on the number of sections I have to update, and makes things a little bit neater. Also, Maq #041 is now available to download by chapter, as well as page by page. Maq #041's site was revamped today (version 3.0!) so things are a little nicer there. The cafe press store is going up, slowly but surely, and even has the Drunken Sailor Moon available to buy in tee-shirt form! While cafe press is expensive, I figure it's better then nothing until I can find a cheap place to buy these things and sell them myself in bulk. Any suggestions are always welcome.
Other then that, there's not much else going on. I'm trying to encourage the amount of fan-art drawn by offering weekly suggestions on the forums, so check there for more info. Hopefully this means with every update, there'll be more and more artwork to post. So until next time, enjoy the small things!

So alot of tweaking has been done in the last week. Things are FINALLY where I've wanted them to be for the longest time. Still a few things need some work, but for the most part, it's going to be all new updates from here on out! About time too, I'm sure.
Now that I'm all settled into our new apartment and with my wedding in 2 weeks (that's right: the Maq is getting hitched!), things will slow down ALOT in my personal life. So that'll give me more time to dedicate to getting other little things done, like my comics and this site. Very soon, I hope to have a fully-operational Cafe Press store as well. So keep an eye out on the site once more! We're about to get busy again!

As you can see, there's a little bit of a change going on here. Once more, I am revamping (as I do every year) and getting rid of a ton of junk that nobody even cares about. For now, the website is focusing soley on artwork and comics. And that's how it'll most likely remain. I've gone from working at everday joe-jobs to doing comics and conventions full-time, so there'll be alot of artistic updates here in the near future. My hope is to make this page fully functional by the end of this week, but we'll see.

Some of the ones posted above are ones I've never gone to, and are only considering at this time. I wanted to get to about 1 con every-other month, but there are a few months were I'll be attending 2. But we'll see. I would really like to get to Colossalcon and Anime USA this year, and if a group will have me, I'd love to attend A-Kon in Texas as a guest again! Sorry west-coasters, but unless someone plans on flying me out on their dime, I probably won't go to any west of Texas this year. But I'll try to update the schedual from time to time, and keep everyone updated.

I will be moving to Florida at the end of October, so I had to cancel my last two cons for the year. I will still travel north for Otakon every year, but I will most likely not be attending any of these cons again until I move back north. I'm hoping to attending more cons in the south now.
