The splint and the exercises and the rest and the using my left hand more often (hey, now!) are finally beginning to pay off. Last night I was able to draw a full page of Wanderlost without any pain. I’m still taking it easy, so the page won’t appear until tomorrow. But it will be [...]

I posted this last night, then went to bed. There seems to be a cosmic conspiracy to deprive me of sleep. Even last night I was awoken at 3am, because Owen’s night light went out due to a power outage in my neighborhood caused by some drunk slamming into a power substation. Then the smoke [...]

Another B&W page update, I am sorry to say. The usual reasons: work, family, and lack of sleep due to post-nasal throat irritation. I got some meds to work on it. Bleh.
