I'm very happy that I can work on my stories these days.
Especially for the fact that I can work on my favorite thing; Making Comics. I've been falling into the world of it all again, only this time, Graphic Novels are beginning to consume my interest. I'm well behind on my issues though now that I think of it. Haven't picked up an issue since... late august?
""I Digress."
But yes! I recently bought Will Eisner's Graphic Storytelling and Visual Narrative (like a week ago now).
Will Eisner truly is a master.
I'm halfway through reading it and I'm confident I'll be reading it again. Eisner has some very helpful breakdowns to what Graphic Storytelling really is about and the essential connection between the artist and his reader.
"Generally I'm just hungry for books. Hungry for knowledge."
I want to know what else I can discern. What else I can associate with my craft to make it all the more better. I realized that I want to grow my skill as a writer. Become a better storyteller and make my stories hit that nerve with my audience. Maybe one day, but for now, I'll stay in my own little workshop called my room.

To start of the year, here's a story that I've been working on. It's actually still in conception, because I truly have no idea where to go with this story. It's just a fun little short story I did to get things started, and simply just warm up to all of the other fun short stories I want to work into this book.

Which!, by the way, I got at the MOMA store in Soho for three bucks! It's 10.25x7 and simply a white book with so many pages to ejaculate many of my short stories on that I just couldn't say no to this boring white book that wasn't even made for comics anyway.
ALSO my mom had the nerve to put an apple she had just eaten on top of the thin cover and the moisture from it almost bled through the first page that I slaved on with the details. I was so angry that I kept my rant to her short and sweet before I ran upstairs and said some horribly unecessary things. She had the nerve to say
Oh you scared me, I thought it was something serious.
"grr... #$@#%@$"
Anyways, it's called Charlie Orange (love the title).
Not much happens in this story but that it leaves the reader questioning what is Charlie Orange REALLY about? for now I can't answer that. As of now, Charlie Orange is just in the mix of my short stories that I want to put down for possible future reference.
So here's the first two pages I've done.
The pages aren't completely finished yet, obviously from the empty box of the first page and the pending detail I want to put on the second page. But it's mainly just small necessities that I'm sure you guys can comprehend what's going on without them.
well, time get ready for work.
"09, I'm so happy you've arrived. You can sleep in my bed tonight.
I'm sure you won't mind if I sleep next to you."

Heh. Eisner truly is phenomenal; that's a great buy, Johnny.
The MOMA design store is great with Muji in the basement.
Charlie Orange is looking great, JOhnny. I can't wait for Comic Con and you wow all those artists with your portfolios. Congratulations, sir.
