Rant #052 Monday, August 2, 2004

Sometimes you have days when you're productive... and other days you are not. Fortunately, this past week has been a good one for getting things accomplished.

We've got not one, no folks, not one but two songs this week, and they are here. Ravenna's theme song, which is a light, carefree tune that may even be a bit poignant. Then there's the Zetsfir theme, which for the first time ever, I actually made multi-tracked voice samples to put together a choir.

The lyrics to the Zetsfir theme are "Zetsfir... Zetsfir is falling!" in case you were curious. That, and who knows what people would come up with from just listening to it. It could sound like anything.

Page 12 is re-illustrated, and the joke on that page has been changed. It may or may not be as funny as the original, based on your sense of humour, but the original joke was pushing for a PG-13 rating instead of PG. Not that the rating matters too much, but there ought to be some kind of standard so people know what to expect.

NK from Brimstone Zero is starting up a new online magazine and is currently gathering contributors. I plan on doing some comicy-manga-ish type o' schnuff for it, and there might be another suprise in store as well.

Lastly, I don't want to go into a lot of detail about it, but I'm navigating my way through a career change recently, which is rather exciting, if not a bit scary as well.

Ok, one more thing, so I guess that wasn't "Lastly". Err, whatever. It's been suggested several times that I publish a print manga based on the 2214 universe and backstory, and perhaps a novel. Both of these ideas sound like fun and I actually plan on pursuing both projects. The trick is finding a publisher, and actually selling the goods somehow. There will be much research, oh yes. much to do.
