In the past coupla months:I recorded a demo ninety minutes long. The first forty is my own compositions and the last fifty is various covers (includes Tracey Thorn and John Darnielle songs, as well as an a capella "Here".) I recorded with my bust guitar, though, so I think I'll re-record with less covers. Much less covers.
I started drawing comics. It's called "I Should Have Paid More Attention In Drawing Class ('stead of sleeping or snogging boys)" and it's drawn in red ink. Featuring mostly stick figures and minimalistic drawing of the worst kind, it amuses me endlessly but have no place for marketing as I am sure most would not want to look at stick figures acting out obscure song lyrics and inside jokes. Inside jokes being, jokes that only I get.
I started writing my book. I haven't titled it yet. I have three version of each beginning so far, and there are about six beginnings. A couple of weeks ago I finally chose the one I liked the best and started continuing with that. It's still a pain not to have the typewriter active. It bust when I plugged it in for the first time, giving sound of explosions and a narsty smell of gas.
I wrote more nonsensical stories than I thought possible, and I wrote a poem where all the words start with the letter E.
