So the good news is that the crisis mentioned in the last update has been resolved! The bad news is that I will have to move back to my mom's house, so I'll be busy doing that for the next few weeks. >_o
Aaand more bad news is the fact that my laptop's back in the shop now for the THIRD TIME. It's still the same problem as before, which I thought was fixed the first time around, but I guess it was just biding its time?? So they never actually figured out what was causing it until this afternoon when the screen messed up and froze again, and rather than just trying to turn the computer off and back on like I used to do, I just brought it into the shop in its frozen state and told the guy, "THIS is what my laptop's been doing for the past MONTH AND A HALF!!"
So I guess it's got nothing to do with overheating and everything to do with the graphics card (which is integrated into the motherboard) being messed up? :< Hopefully it'll be fixed some time next week.
Anime Expo was pretty cool, although I was nervous about it because it was the first convention where I had already brought Directions of Destiny to before. Of course everybody who bought the book the first time two years ago gave me a hard time about the second book not being out yet, but I don't blame you guys. 8D()() It does motivate me to work harder to get the second book out by next year though, so wish me luck >3<b
And for people going to Otakon, table assignments have been given out, and I will be sitting at table C5! See you there~
Hey, glad to hear everything has worked out! As a 20-something year old who’s also still living at home, it sucks but it sure does save on money. Hope your laptop gets fixed, your comic is amazing!
Yo Hans! I’m sure everything will work out in the end! Just remember to keep the comic somewhere in the back of your mind at all times, OR ELSE!!! lol jk have fun at the convention PeAcE.
I’m sure that a lot more people will be moving back in with their parents now that the economy’s going to the dump.
Sorry to hear about all problems! G’luck and godspeed; the comic is superb!
Oh, I will surely see you at Otakon. I shall hover and hover! above your table! And it will be grand—my hovering and your table. Both. Yes. GRAND.
It is okay Hans,
Thanks for the update, & an integrated graphic card, I am a gamer/artist as well, so I can understand your frustration about it being so crappy, even make your computer freeze without warning.
Anyways, glad everything is resolved, & it is understandable for taking a break, I believe the best things, art & story, come with time & patience.
Take your time, & just keep updating us on the current situations you face, as long as you do that, we are very appreciative of it, & at least us you know the comic is still alive along with you.
We all shall be waiting, for the next update or the next page of the comic to be brought here.
Just wanted to comment (again - I think I did it before but am not certain) on how deliriously happy I was to see you drawing again! I really hope everything with your computer and whatnot gets sorted out, so that I can keep enjoying the prettiest artwork I’ve seen on the ‘net for many a year. You rock, man! Don’t forget it!
Hey, glad to hear that things are moving towards the clear (good luck with the laptop)! I love the comic, and while I’m super eager for another update, I’ll certainly wait patiently ^.^
Keep up the excellent work!
It’s great to hear that everything’s good at the moment.
In the meantime, my computer is doing the EXACT same thing, so if you ever figure out what it’s doing, i’d be glad to know what the problem is :D. (Right now, we’re thinking bad hard drive, or lack of RAM, or something like that >.>)
