Pet peeve.

The plot starts to thicken. There may or may not be a cat next week. Who shall be addressed as royalty.

I’ve been having a lot of fun experimenting a bit with the art – both with how I draw the characters themselves and the shading.  I think I might have abused both resources in the first couple of strips I shaded (kinda like the kid who gets a new box of crayons and proceeds to deface an entire wall) but I think I’m taking a more subtle/elegant approach.  Will rein back in also how windswept David’s hair has looked in the last couple of strips, and come up with a happy medium.  But still, new strips!

I am excited about the next few strips — all of next week’s are fully finished and loaded, and I really like that storyline.  I had a bit of a writing session last week and hammered out the next three storyarcs, and I can’t wait to finish drawing them.  Hope you’ll join on that trip!

Also, I want to invite you to visit my friend Fern’s webcomic, 4Calendar Cafe, celebrating its first anniversary.  Visit, poke around and read through his archive — his story is developing into something really interesting, and I think you will be as hooked as I am..
