Holy crap, I may die.


Well. I got the official release date for Rose. AUGUST 29, 2009.

Which means all pages must be done for July 23, 2009.


Dear God.

I still have about half to draw.

I already spoke to my boss about taking one day off every week to work. This might shoot my new york trip down the tube... But I really need more time. Also, first published book versus fun times in America? gotta set the priorities straight. I am building myself a schedule to draw one-two pages per day, minimum. Don't be surprised if you don't hear much of me, or see much of me or have many drawings on this blog for the next month (I'll still try to update at least bi-weekly)...

The stress may destroy me. BUT I CAN TOTALLY DO THIS!!! EAT MY PENCILS, TIME SPACE CONTINIUM!

Have a hopeful Steampunk lina to compensate!

Well, at least you now know what to shoot for. I hate deadlines, but all the same they also help me really concentrate on getting things done. Just...don't breathe too many marker fumes in the meantime.

May the drawing muses be with you!

But seriously, good luck. We know you can do it and it will be so worth it in the end. *hugs*

Thanks!

(I'm going to have to pospone the beginning of Slayers Gears. I Apologize for that.)

(That's okay, I agree that finishing Rose is far more important. Besides, there's no rush. While you work on Rose, I'll just work on writing more chapters. ^_~ )

(Exactly what I told her regarding Namesake! We shall be Isa's cheerleaders!)

Yay! I haz cheerleaders!

(and actually, if this is sent to print on the 23rd of july, I'll actually be able to start Namesake as planned... Since I can't really draw on it while it's printing...Okay, I think i'm just stressed now. Isa enters panic mode verrrrryyyyy easily.)

I think I'm the only person in the universe that isn't allured by steam punk. I mean, my sister loves it so much, she's an editor for a press that publishes them, but I just can't seem to get pulled into the allure.

The picture, however, is still nice =3.

Oh, yikes. O.o Good luck with it! Getting an extra day off of work would probably best, not just to help you finish Rose but also keep your stress down a bit, hopefully.

I'd say the book takes full priority!
