With the internet it's possible to become so "productive" that you're no longer doing anything!

So I'm probably not going to be participating here at DA for a while. By which I mean a while longer. But I do still love some of you! You know who you are!

Alright.. you might have noticed I'm not posting drawings at the moment. Well, I'm not actually a illustrator. My goals with artwork don't extend too far beyond being able to produce my own indy comics.

I'm really a writer. Earlier this year I finished my first book, and now I'm trying to figure out what to do with the thing. I'm considering putting it online to try and get some interest and perhaps find a publisher. Since I already live here at DA, this would be my first choice for a location.

So my question, which you can find and answer in the adjoining poll, is whether or not anyone actually reads anything here. It's fiction, but not fan fiction. Assuming a story had nothing to do with Naruto or the last Airbender, would anyone make it past page 3?

You can barely get any clicks for non-colour artwork, so I have my doubts about text.

Thoughts, anyone?

After careful field testing, I have concluded that nunchucks SUCK as a weapon. The flexible midsection robs them of authentic force, and aside from being hard for your opponent to grab, they accomplish very little in the heat of battle. You'd be much better off with a wakazashi or stabbing people with sai.

I know, it's disappointing. It means that one ninja turtle is totally unrealistic. Aww, man.

I haven't abandoned you all. I'm just playing video games.

Last week I logged into a Xbox Live server and started playing Halo 3 and Perfect Dark online. With this silly joystick people have little reason to fear me. As much as I dislike playing shooters without a mouse a keyboard, not being able to lock down a game is far worse. Practice is in order.

And let's be fair, I never said I was a full time artist. Sadly, games aren't good enough to be a full time gamer either, so rest assured I'll be bored in a few weeks.

Xbox Live participants are welcome to contact me. I'm Thirdrail1 there too. And pretty much everywhere...

I finally leave MySpace... in horror... and here, in this haven, I finally get dragged into a silly comment game. Curse you, Sketch. You're going to internet hell for this, I hope you realize...
