Yes. THERE'S a pick-up line he's never gonna use AGAIN. What was he trying to do anyways? Best pick up lines of the 80's sitcom?
I love messing with people.
Hola, friends of the web! Did you all miss me? I'm glad to announce that Rose is OVER. All drawn and given to my awesome editor for him to create the book! EEEE! HAHAHAHA I AM FREE! I asked, and apparently when the book will be out (August 29, 2009), you will be able to purchase it from the publisher's website, so I will be sure to forward you the link. There is also a book launch party in Montreal. The book Launch is for all the books coming out under this editor's TRIP Label. The launch is in Montreal, Saturday August 29th
15 h to 19 h At Le Cheval Blanc, 809 Ontario Est, Montréal (514 522 0211 - Click here for informative webpage) I'm excited you guys! FIRST BOOK OF THE ISA. You can join the launch party if you are in Montreal! Bring your friends! It's going to be fun and i'll draw something in the book for you that is extra special!
In other good news, they want me to draw them more comics. So I have two other projects that I will get rolling soon. Here is a little list about what I plan to do comic wise:
-Revamp portfolio site/LJ for the pretties.
-Take care of the distribution list for Rose
-Jabberwocky short comic (for the TRIP Label)
- Psychopomp, a comic similar to what Rose is going to be, again for the TRIP Label
-Finish Doujinshi for
-Draw Slayers steampunk style fanfic/comic Slayers Gears!
-Finish the Oz comics
-Princess Tutu Doujinshi
-Various comics for the journal
-A few paintings
-Fanarts (of Zel/Emile? And Charlie/Carmen? And Avatar? You betcha!)
-And, if I can, I have been thinking of maybe doing a comic with the Secondworld characters following the original plot of the RPG... Of course I would need permission is this project is still far on my list but it would be cool.
Whew. I need to make some comic-drawing schedules. I'm gonna be a busy girl, but no joke I love this. I love being able to draw and be published and getting feedback on the stuff I post online from you guys. You all rock.
......I really need to clean my appartment. I've been neglecting it because I was spending all my time on Rose. I could have done some yesterday and today, but I feel pretty drained...Both mentally and physically. So I think chore day will be tomorrow! Tomorrow, tomorrow! The cleaning fairy shall pass!
Over and Out!
Or not quite, have this picture of Rose...because I am so happy!

-Isa
*ps - I also JUST noticed last week the number of people that friended me went up to 70. What? When? Aw, you guys. :D

no subject
Date: 2009-07-07 03:00 pm (UTC)The comic about the secondworld has been going in my mind for a while. Something MUST be done with these characters. I miss the dynamic mockery between Pallura and Victoria. So many jokes, so little pages XD

Date: 2009-07-07 04:24 pm (UTC)(Speaking on game, still interested in the dragon thing? I thought I was just going to get a jump start on helping a couple of people get their characters started, but it turned into a mass character generating session with everyone but you..and now I'm being asked when I'm going to start. Help! I'm not going anywhere until I know for sure what you want to do - plus I'm working the entire week, so I won't be slapping any plot together just yet.)
no subject
Date: 2009-07-07 04:28 pm (UTC)I was thinking of going with a male Puck like character (so..chaotic good?) I didn't have time to read over the dragon thing...I should do that. Unless they have fire dragons in there. Then if so, tha`t's what I want to be. No questions!
no subject
Date: 2009-07-07 04:41 pm (UTC)I still think you'd have the most fun playing a Pseudo dragon (not to mention it fits in well with my fiendish plans!) since you'd be able to get away with things no one else could. They're described as being a lot like cats in how they act (aloof, etc.) but they're not above playing tricks on people - especially people who annoy them. They also typically have no breath weapon but instead have a poison sting on their tail, but I've already been wanting to change that. You could have a little fire cracker if you wanted. ^_-
In any case, you can go with a regular 'true' dragon if you want. The only real tricksters of the true dragons are Copper dragons, but Joanne staked a claim on that one last night.

Oh well, maybe I can recylce as the awesome cool stoic warrior. I would like that too. What type of dragon does that?
Awesomeness
Date: 2009-07-07 05:59 am (UTC)Your first full book getting published!!! I'm so happy for you.
I told you you could do it. Great job. I can't wait to see it.
How happy are you with the results?
I'm sure it's sick drawings. You also always had a strong storytelling talent. Not to mention all that awesome symbolism you love to add in all of those insanely intricate and compelling drawings of yours.
And it's just your first of many books that you'll draw and think up. I can't wait to see what else you'll cook up next.
Keep up the great work
Your biggest fan.

no subject
Date: 2009-07-07 03:04 pm (UTC)Hummmmm.... I don't know what the website selling system is. Though, I am trying to get the book in shops in Toronto (The Labyrinth and Perhaps the Begilling on Bloor), so you can go pick it up there. Otherwise, you can just have me buy it and send it to you and send a rehinboursement my way.

Date: 2009-07-07 03:12 pm (UTC)I think the second method is best. I worry that if I plan to make a trip downtown, I won't make it in time to actually buy the boo, which makes me sad.
Question: is it in French? Cuz I can (sorta) read it, so it won't be (much of) a problem.

As for using Cara, feel free to use her as much as you like.
(Next time we're online we should talk more about the Princess Tutu idea. ^_~ )

And dumb pick up lines are really amusing. The best one I ever got was when I was at work (hostessing at a restaurant) and getting drinks for this obnoxious group of teenage and early twentysomething boys. One guy laid this gem on me:
"You look really innocent. Are you a Mormon or something?"
I responded by "accidentally" spilling his drink on him. XD

I hope there is some way I can procure a copy! I'd love to own one.
And I for one would love to see Tutu doujinshi from you!
no subject
Date: 2009-07-08 02:49 am (UTC)But it's no surprise, given your talent.
(You want bizarre pick-up attempts? Many, many years ago a guy tried a pick-up line on me as I was pushing my then 14 month old daughter in her stroller down the street! Eh, maybe he did it in case I had "baby blues" and wanted to make me feel good about myself? Nah, he had "loser" written all over him.)
