Well, Poop

[shanmonster]

I just found out second-hand that I didn't get the scholarship to the Morocco/Tarik workshop this month. This is a real pisser, because it means I have to pay for it with my already stressed-out credit card. All I can do now is hope I sell lots and lots of stuff at the workshop.

f00dave has also reminded me that I really need to concentrate more on my writing. My writing for money, that is. So I need to really finish writing those specialized dance costuming books I've been procrastinating over for the last few years. It's about time I did my tribal costuming book, my book on skirts, my book on tops, and my booklet on no-sew techniques. And then there's that chapbook I mentioned a couple of years ago. I need to get a wiggle on. Like f00 said, just an hour a day will go a long way....

Uh, not yet. I have 5 long boxes and one half box, mostly filled with a mix of poop, Vertigo stuff, and a few good series (Shade, Preacher, lots of Sandman, starting about 20 issues in, etc). We'll announce on LJ when it's catalogued and/or posted on eBay, no worries. WE'RE MONEY-GRUBBERS TOO! =)

Coooooomiiiiiiiiics....

Mind you, I have all of the Preacher and Sandman series in trade paperback form.

But I'm not sure if I'd want to pay money to have comic boxes filled with human excrament.

Oh...you didn't mean poop literally? =)

We were collecting pretty much all the Vertigo stuff, along with anything Gaiman was involved in, and a few oddball series here and there. Shan was into Strangers In Paradise, for instance. I'll catalogue it and post it someday soon.

And no, not literal poop, though a few things in there sure remind me of it! I mean, W.I.L.D.C.A.T.S. #1? What the FUCK was I thinking?!?!?

What INDEED, mister Foo. Why in the blue hell would you buy Image stuff outside of maybe Savage Dragon and Invincible!?

And I admit, Vertigo almost always has top notch stuff. Even the stuff they put out today is awesome like 100 Bullets, Fables and Y: The Last Man.

Do you still collect any? I remember Shan saying she doesn't anymore, but I thought I'd ask. =)

Speculation? Stupidity? Dunno. I'm not the moron I used to be; I'm an altogether *new* kind of moron!

Nope, we're out of it, now. I'd rather have some cash and the space back, really. *shrug*
