A Short Break

Now that I’ve completed chapter 2 of Starcrossed and am currently working some grueling overnight hours at work to prepare for the impending holiday season, I’m going to take a short break from the comic so I can write chapter 3 and relax a little.

In the meantime I’ll probably be posting some sketches to the site, but there won’t be a new comic for the next two weeks to give my hands time to recover. I have to stock fabric and it totally kills my hands. :(

On a related note, I now hate flannel. Just touching it now makes me want to vomit. Last night I handled fabric for nine hours. Just touching my shirt to adjust it made me cringe.

Schedule Change and New Design In the Store

First, I feel compelled to give a heads up. The updating schedule might be a bit odd for the next few weeks. I’m working the overnight shift (9pm to 6am) Wednesday-Saturday which is pretty much the opposite of what I have been working. This will be going on for the holiday season and then I will switch back to more normal hours. Updates will probably be moved to the first of the week instead.
This update was late because I’ve been spending the weekend battling a migraine that finally let up today. I think this time it’s partially from the weird things happening to my sleep schedule. It could also be that I haven’t had a migraine in a while so my brain decided it was high time to make a fist. :( On the plus side I’ve caught up on several shows because all I could bring myself to do was sit and watch tv.
Anyway today I decided to make up for lost time and do something productive. I Not only did I get a page up, but I also managed to finally finish the t-shirt design I’ve been working on. :D Check it out here. I hope you like Steampunk.

Also Starcrossed merch. If I were to make stuff to sell for the comic, would anyone be interested in buying? Prints, buttons, t-shirts perhaps? Let me know!

Un-Breaking The Site

I think there was a Toni Braxton song with the same title once. :P
Anyway, I hope you like the new layout. Comic Press help from the lovely Allison who always has an answer to my coding needs and make an awesome beef stroganoff<3. It is a basic one, but I think it works better. I have developed a strong dislike for the banner, so I will change it out shortly but otherwise the site stuff is done.
There is also a tag page function so it will save whatever page you left off. Also you can now click on the comic itself and it will take you to the next page.
Organization and convenience! A novel concept!

EDIT: Header fixed! Much better. New page soon.

Breaking The Site

Hey everyone. Just letting giving a heads up that we are in the process of redesigning the site. So if things are weird for the next day, it’s because my girlfriend is gutting the site and putting it back together in a more pleasing manner. The chaos will only be temporary.

I Quit My Job!

As a follow up to the last couple of news posts here, I thought I would let everyone know I quit my job! I found a new job at an arts and crafts store as a stock clerk. It’s a minimum wage job, but I mostly took it to quit my old one (plus I get to shop while I’m working!:D). The final straw was them letting the creeper come back to work. Not only did I not feel safe during closing shifts and had to have a friend walk me to my car at night, but they had also scheduled me for 10-12 hour shifts and I was unable to take a break because the place they moved him to was the employee cafeteria. It wasn’t so much a safety issue with him being in there because there was a lot of people, it was more that just seeing him made me physically ill. I ran into him once in the cafeteria and nearly threw up. For that last week I had the same friend who was walking me to my car sneak in and smuggle food out for me (you rock, Zoe!).
On a related note, I’ll be contacting the EEOC about that place. I doubt it will do me any good personally since I quit, but I hope that sicking a government agency on them about this will make them take complaints more seriously when someone else has this problem. And maybe they’ll think twice about hiring sexual predators.
I’ve been working at the new place for about a week now. I didn’t update last week because I’m getting used to the new schedule. I went from working graveyard shift at the casino to having to be at work at six am to unload a truck. Fun times.

Also, I’m looking for ideas for t-shirt designs. If you have any ideas for things you’d like to see in the store, please let me know. Otherwise please check the store out for the things I do have.
