Necrotic-Fleshrot

I'm still wondering whether or not to add more of my vignettes/stories. Response hasn't been what I'd hoped. That is to say, there really hasn't been any! LOL!

I realize I have a tendency to disappear for ages. I guess it's because self-deprecation comes more easily to me than motivation. Inspiration hits me at the most random, usually very inopportune, moments. Anxiety and depression seem to be fountains of inspiration and my best work seems to just endlessly pour out uncontrollably during these episodes. It's not like I want to be sad and nervous in order to work, but it's hard for me to force myself to do anything when I'm in a good mood. Believe me, the irony isn't lost on me but what a freakin' dilemma this duality is.

Anyway, the reason for this post is because I have a few odd bits of drawings I need to upload but the one thing I haven't done in years and that I've been the busiest with is writing. For most of my life I've been told that I'm an excellent writer. I even won a creative writing contest when I was in grade school. Honestly, I don't even really remember much about it but my mom still has the pictures and the award I got. But, of course, as with anything I'm supposedly "good" at...I hate doing it. Don't ask me how that works. Again: Irony; Duality; and all that noise. Whatever.

Point being, during the past year or so, for some reason, my brain just decided to start pouring out all these little stories - usually no more than a few paragraphs or a page in length. "Vignettes", I'm told is the proper term - and I suddenly found myself with quite a few finished and even more incomplete or in the "idea" phase. I've shopped a few of the ones I feel are somewhat worth reading to various folks around the internet on chat rooms and boards and so far the general reaction has been largely positive. Thematically most, though not all, seem to be an odd mix of tragedy, love, and horror. My brother calls it "horroromance". Regardless of what you want to call it, I'm considering uploading it here for your pleasure/dismay. I'm not really sure how many I want to upload, if any at all, so I'm leaving it up to you guys to decide. Please read them, read them again (trust me you'll want to go over them more than once; they're short, it won't take long) and tell your honest thoughts. I really want to know if these are good enough because my ultimate goal is to draw accompanying artwork and publish a book filled with these vignettes.

For the time being, I may upload one or two, and if demand is good enough, I'll post more and maybe even find the motivation to finish the rest. Thanks in advance, everyone.

Holy crap it's been forever...

Well, I bought a new sketchpad and pencils and stuff (like 6 months ago) and they are collecting dust. I do need to start again. I have had a lot of ideas for new stuff and I've even teamed up with another artist friend of mine to do some stories/concept art and potentially do a webcomic or two. We'll see. I'm sure I still have old stuff sitting somewhere that I need to upload.

In music news, new logos and CD cover art should be finished soon and I'll be posting those for all my bands as soon as we receive the finished product. I'll post some song links later on if anyone's interested.

Upload Spree! Yay!
Enjoy...

BleRgh....

I need a new PC and a scanner and then I can upload MOAR!
