A blog about a blog
When I started up this blog, I had hoped to be able to update on a fairly regular basis. My last blog (the one I had on Blogger) was very rare and very long posts and I didn’t want to be in that situation any more. Unreadable long posts few and far between.
And it started well. When I signed up for Tumblr, I was posting a blog every weekday and a few on weekends when I got a chance. But now it’s gone wrong again. I seem to be posting regularly for a short period and then…nothing for so long.
Indeed, the last blog I posted was on 13/05/11 - the day before Bristol Comic Expo. And a lot has happened since then.
That’s always been my problem with diaries and blogs. When you’re busy and you’ve got something to write about, you don’t really have the time to do the writing about it bit… That’s what they call a Catch 22, right?
Actually, I did manage to write a blog the week after Bristol. But it wasn’t for here - it was for the FPI Blog. I was asked to do an overview of the panel I was on/organised. So I did. And you can read it here.
After Bristol I had a lot of comic book work to get on with: Sugar Glider issue 2 had moved into production, and I was preparing the scripts and artists for Sugar Glider Stories 2. There were also meetings to be had with James Cornell about Simon and the Sundial.
And, before long, I was off ‘on tour’ again. At the beginning of June I was over in Derry with Lily to stay with the artist, Kevin Logue, and to attend the 2D Comics Festival for the first time.
A fantastic weekend of meeting new people, meeting internet friends for the first time and meeting up with my regular convention friends was followed by a very hard week at PAYE work, and then a time-consuming week of freelance work. And then the tour bus was revving up again. Readying itself for my journey to Scotland for the Glasgow Comic Convention!
But more on that tomorrow…
