Busy with a capital "Yikes!"

The blog looks like it will suffer for a week or two, while I work furiously on the webcomic Shadow Bytes. Looking to expand the audience with some advertising, but first, we need some amusing art. Thanks to Patrick's work and incorporating the talented assistance of Ty Barbary, we got an ad banner incorporated into the site design.

Did you know that this week is the 17th week of Shadow Bytes? By this Thursday there will be 34 strips, each one has been on time—more or less. I will freely admit that I was a few hours late on a few.

I've got the buffer for the comic up to one week, but I'm trying to push it a little further and cramming in what time with the novel that I can. This is the novel that was started last year for NaNoWriMo, for now I'm calling it Felling Abberfaun, we'll see if that changes or not. One thing I'm trying to push the envelope on in this book (for me at least) is the political intrigue. Fitting, then, that I am re-reading Game of Thrones, by George R.R. Martin. Not planned, but it works out well. If I had cable and HBO I'd probably just be watching the series, but alas (or thankfully) I am not.
