Update From Rob Land

I think I'm finally getting back on track now. Last week was...rough, to put it mildly. Things are gradually turning back around, though.

Random stuff:

* I should start finally lettering Black Chamber this week. I ordered Corel Draw last Thursday, so that should be in any time now. I'm really looking forward to putting this in the can once and for all. Even if no one publishes it, really.

* I got the next book all plotted out over the weekend and started writing on it. I got all of the little story kinks worked out that were keeping me from getting in and working on it. It's looking to be a fun one to make.

* I'm tired of making millions of dollars for other people. To that end, my mom and I are finally starting up our business together, starting this week. More on that once all of the paperwork is filed.

* Andy, last night's Raw was really fucking awesome. The main event between Cena and HBK went for a full hour! Easily Cena's best match, like, ever.

* Morningstar Farms' Spicy Black Bean Burgers? Fucking good.

* Have y'all been following the marketing campaign for the new Nine Inch Nails album? Lots of idears there for us creative types. The new album? I like it, but I'm not floored by it. Still really solid, though. I feel for Trent, in that Downward Spiral was such a huge success it will always be the elephant in the room with him. I've enjoyed this the most out of his albums since, though. I'm not as angsty as I used to be, though, so I don't know that I'm the target demographic for his music anymore.

* I finally watched Firefly last week. Pretty good. It didn't give me a nerdgasm or anything, but it was still enjoyable. I need to pick up Serenity (movie and comic) now, which I've heard is enjoyable. I guess I enjoy Whedon's comics more than his TV shows.

* Has anyone read the new Lethem yet? I know I'll like it, but I'm still working my way through 'The Long Goodbye'. It's next on my list, for sure.

* Peace out.
