| 03.30.07Picco on break. Soul Guardian spinning up. |
Well, again with the mood swing and the need to draw. I've gotten very rusty, almost beyond compare, but the call to draw has once again nipped at my neck. Soul Guardian will get the return to service it deserves. I'm going to pick up, right where I left off, but not until I get myself situated in my personal affairs. I'm targetting Fall 08! So, stay tuned. I'm also working on an RSS feed, so you don't have to keep checking the update status by visiting this site. We'll see how that goes... the last time I did hard core programmind was the fall of 04. :P
Ja Ne.

| 06.19.06 Picco time-frame... and yadda-yadda |
Recently, Picco has been frequently delayed. Mostly this is due to various tasks popping up here and there. Added to that is more studying for work (yeah, work), and the frequent activities happening on the weekends. I haven't had a weekend to myself since March... MARCH! So, hopefully the next few weeks will end this constant storm of me being popular. Yeah, hard to believe but my social life is bustling, filling to the brim even. Not as much fun as I was hoping it would be. Weddings; parties; social hangouts; parties; trip to Vegas... all very fun, yet very tireing. Sometime this summer I will get back on schedule and post Picco on Mondays (as I've planned), but for now I can only post when I have free time to work on it. There are no plans to stop Picco! There are no plans to do another comic! I'm just busy. So, thanks for being patient, and I hope to at least get one page up per week.
More info soon.

The guestbook has been removed, it is sorowful, but I couldn't maintain it and it was being filed with guarbage.
Darn net bots. Anyway... this shouldn't affect your enjoyment.

Picco is ready, penciled and waiting to be scanned. Unfortunately, my home computer recently went through a hard reload... I am in the process of rebuilding it and writing a Art History Paper. Look For picco Wednesday... promise.

| 03.27.06 Picco is BACK! |
| Is it true? Am I kidding in some vain attempt to rekindle your trust? Is this some desperate hope to get
meaning back into my life? uhhhh... ignore that last one.
Yes, my favorite little cat girl is back and ready to put an end to those that dislike aliens at Towson University.
All new Art work, a cool continuing storyline, and more Mai... oh yeah much more Mai. Everyone loves the cute talkative
type... you know you do.
Look for new pages of Picco Every Monday, starting Monday May 1st! Seems far, but trust me, it'll be worth it.

| 02.23.06 An Update?? HOORAY! |
Well, nothing really grand to get excited about. Just thought I'd stick my head in and keep you "rare" visitors informed. School and Work are ripping the life from me as I type this (studying for a test), and believe me... I'd rather be drawing Picco or Bain at this moment. I'm not even going to attempt to get back to work on Soul Guardian, I'm simply too consumed with school and my full time job. However, spring break is but a few weeks away, and I will be picking up the pencil and bringing you some nice drawings to hold you over till summer. So, yeah... that's that. See you around mid March.

| 09.29.05 NEW PICCO, SOON!??!! |
New Picco??? Is it possible?? Why yes it is. In an effort to "find myself" I'm going to come back to working on Picco. Soul Guardian is still on HIATUS but with plans to start up again in January/February. Picco will be a good release for me as I... "Practice" more. Look for a new page around October 7!!!

| 08.11.05 Temporary Hiatus |
I've come to terms. My motivation (and time) has simply slipped. The desire to continue the story still remains but my frustration with the quality of my work has reached an all time high.
It saddens me to say this but I'm going to take a six month break from Soul Guardian. With classes starting up again, my time will be increasingly zapped, add with that I am seriously contemplating getting a second job to ease my "woes". But I will be back, giving up drawing is not something I can do completely. I love drawing, and I love the story I have created, but until I can see some changes and improvements, I need to step away and evaluate if this is something that I really want to invest my time into.
So for now... thank you for visiting and reading. If you can remember my little corner on the web, come back around January or February of 2006. The story isn't dead, just on a long pause.
