This first portion was written a week ago. I figured I would leave it in and edit the grammatical errors and story-telling plot holes a single paragraph leaves.
Book 2, I have worked, strived, and spent many nights working. Then everything fell together last night. I am working on the cover. Finish the cover and say, “Hmmm, I should do the next steps!” … “A few hours later,” (SpongeBob cadence) I load in my digital files, and BAM, Emerald flavor added… Or book completed? I ordered some Proofs and sit on the list changes, till I get the Proof.
Saturday, I get the proofs after a long day of working. On Sunday, a snowstorm hits. I am working again for reasons. So burnt out energy-wise, I look at my book. Not perfect and gamericaly challanged. But it’s in my hands! And something about that tangableness is exciting.
So Monday rolls around, and I had to divide between tasks. Looking for a job, making a second promo video, and trying to participate in March of the Mechs. Month-long drawing prompts for mechs, robots ect. That will be a separate blog posting in April. Along with a drawing montage similar to Inktober see link–> https://chibsarestuckinsidemyhead.space/inktober-monstermash-the-aftermath/
I completed the second video with some new knowledge gained. Like adding pictures to give a good transition point into the time-lapse drawing. It was a fun, less frustrating process than last weeks atempt ( see promo 1)

Inspiration from a friend!
Sunday was just a full day.. Worked till 5:30 pm Drove home in the snowstorm. Then ate and played a game with some friends. Well attempted. The game had some issues. So we just bantered a bit. Chirpy is what I shall call him for his anonymity. And that is his nickname. Chirpy built a website in two weeks. I looked at it and had some web page envy. It’s slick, it’s sharp, It has character/Characters. But the fun thing Chirpy did is he documented his process. So this is inspiring me to improve this page between blog posts, work, and coloring book progress. I may make some changes and updates to improve my flow and overall design. Chirpy, I salute you for giving encouragement, drive, and Bracolii! via web design within blog posts and showing your homework!
Future post?
My plan is to keep this a weekly thing. This is my social media presence! I do have a YouTube page with decade-old videos. I plan to shape this into a hub of who I am. Curated, Controlled, and Engaging. I thank you, the reader,for your time!
