Update on the creativity front: I am (again) extremely fortunate to have genius artist and comics rockstar Nelson Evergreen hard at work drawing an 8-page script I wrote for the proposed Barbelith Collaborative Comics Project (history here). Nelson is that rarity - an up-and-coming talent whose work so clearly screams "NEXT BIG THING" and yet who is still at the stage where he is forced to debase his Muse slumming with the likes of me (fear not, this modesty is entirely false). Our tale is one of crazy young kids running wild and clashing with oppressive authoritarian figures in a needlessly violent manner. Here is a taste.

Boom shak-a-lack.

Update on the job front (which hasn't been mentioned in this blog before but I know whose beady eyes are roaming here): yesterday I had an interview for a job I would really like an awful lot, I think - largely because it would enable me to return to the life of London meeja whoredom, something I suspect suits me much more than I would like to admit. (Although the last few months have been quite good at making me realise that there are certain things I don't *need* in my life the way I thought I did, and also that I am very privleged etc...) Then today, I had an interview for a job which isn't great but would be bearable, would pay the bills for six months and would be quite conveniant in many seemingly trivial but actually key respects (location, for one). It seems quite likely that I will be offered this and that I will take it, under false pretences (because if I get the better one, I will quite the crappy one immediately).

It's the showbiz git one I want though - yr prayers are welcome...
