Winterly

So, the cold started. just *poof* suddenly, everything went below zero. Mwer. I love you Canada, but your winters are harsh! 

Been drawing my butt off, but getting nice results. I drew the witch up there for a calendar, and finished some paid comic contracts. I'm going to have a comic in the upcoming Womanthology "Space" issue. So be sure to keep your eyes peeled for it! Here's a panel featuring a pushy friend :



Aside from that, the news! Two things - first, i'm going to be on the news here in Québec. Some folks were doing a report on manga for the annual literature festival. So they came to the bookstore I work at to get some footage and explanations about it. I'm glad! Since, you know, usually manga is shown rather negatively on the media as cheap comics with no content other then fighting and sexing. It's good to see a report in the mainstream media talking about how fun it is and why it communicates so well to teens. 

Second, elections! Even though i'm Canadian and basically have no say in it, i'm glad Obama got re-elected. Political discussion aside (aka, not considering what both parties should represent), I honestly feel that Obama cares a whole lot more about America in general then Romney did. I mean... the Republicans could have chosen someone way better to represent them then THAT. Here in Canada, we basically have a lot of folks who really don't give a crap "ruling" us. So yeah... I'm glad. For those of you who are republicans, I hope your next candidate will be more awesome. For you democrats out there, congrats. 

That is all.
