This blog is dead. Sometime I want to replace it with a portal page, but right now I have about 7 other projects taking precedence. In the meantime, check out my comics at http://www.introspectivecomics.com

I’ve decided to make some changes to my update schedule. First of all, I’m going to start updating Weekends With Carl twice a week, on Wednesdays and Sundays. I’ve been kind of frustrated with the pacing of the comic lately, so I’ve decided to speed things up by ramping up the update schedule.

To allow more time for the Weekends With Carl updates, I will be putting Introspective Shorts on hiatus after this Thursday. I’ve decided to end the side comic on a high and focus more on the long-form comic. If I ever get the itch to do more short-form comics, I’ll start it up again.

I can’t guarantee that I will be able to keep up the two page per week schedule forever. If I could update a page per day without sacrificing quality or sanity, I would. But right now it looks like I can handle two pages per week.

So stop in tomorrow for the next installment of Weekends With Carl!

I know this is a last minute announcement, but the Buddhist writing group I’ve been going to is giving a reading tonight. It’s called yes reflection/no reflection, and its at the Minnesota Zen Meditation Center at 7:00.

The guest strip I made for nemu nemu has been posted! Nemu nemu is a class act all-ages comic, and I’m honored to have my guest strip on their site.

If you haven’t checked out their comic, you are missing out on the cutest comic in the cosmos! Check it out at http://www.nemu-nemu.com.

I just added a new feature to Introspective Comics… INTROSPECTIVE SHORTS! Short, self-contained autobiographical comics will now be now posted in the Introspective Comics news feed every Thursday. Check them out at http://www.introspective comics.com!

So check Introspective Comics every Sunday for “Weekends With Carl” and every Thursday for “Introspective Shorts”.

I’ve been getting a lot of links to this blog lately, so I thought I better update.

As always, you can check out my weekly webcomic, Introspective Comics, at http://www.introspectivecomics.com. It’s updated on Sundays whether I update this main page blog or not.

Second, I have a full-time job again, which is nice.

I just started a twitter feed, which I will be adding to my main site. It will give you all of the details of my exciting rock star lifestyle!

I am nearly finished with the layouts for a Lutefisk Sushi minicomic. Once I’m done with it, I’ll be moving on to a bevy of other comics projects.

In other news, co-Conspirator Kevin Cannon finished his epic comic Far Arden! You can check it out at http://www.kevincannon.org/288hour/

Finally, here is a cover for a “Weekends With Carl” mini I’ll be printing up for MicroCon.

May you all spend time with someone you love. That’s right, even a broken-hearted cynic like me can appreciate Valentines. I didn’t get around to making or mailing Valentines this year, so instead I’ll give you a sneak preview of next Sunday’s love-themed comic:

Well, I think I’ve finally found a Wordpress theme I can live with. I’ll probably be tweaking it over time.
