10:56 am - Greek God T-shirts
I finally redid my t-shirts page so it's a lot more appealing and navigable (navigateable?). I love all the shirts, but I'm unsure if/how to reorder them. I used Cafe Press for these, but it's hard to predict what sizes I should order for people. Anyone have good t-shirt recommendations?
Anyhoo, if you don't see any sizes you'd like, they're available directly from my Cafe Press store here.

09:30 am - Derby Diary
Okay, so I've decided to launch a separate blog chronicling my first official year in derby. Technically, I've been involved in derby since October 08, but I just made a team and just (almost) had my first bout last night. So starting now, I'm going to regularly chronicle the haps.
Those of you who are insterested can check it out here: http://lipstickisses.wordpress.com/
This blog will still remain the place where I post comic news, updates, and random sketches and projects I'm involved in.

12:10 pm - more blogs or less blogs?
I'm thinking of creating yet another blog. And I don't know why.
I feel like this space has become solely a place for me to post comic updates and direct viewers to other things. While I like notifying people of my comics and having them read them, it then seems awkward for me to insert a post going on and on about my latest conundrums. Like it's inappropriate to suddenly do that. But there are times when I want a place to go on and on about my conundrums. But I also want a place to post news. And I want a place to try out experimental projects and solicit participation.
Should all those things go into the same blog?
I know other people do it differently. I just can't decide how to do it ... for me.

01:20 pm - Gods & Undergrads News
First of all, here's a Gods & Undergrads update!
And in the "oh my god, it's about time" category of news - the second Gods & Undergrads book is finally coming to print, hooray!
The books are scheduled to arrive in February. They'll be a cute manga size (5 1/2" x 8", same as G&U Book 1), 108 pages, full color. You can find all the information about the book here, as well as view some sample pages. And click here to let me know if you'd like to preorder a copy (psst - all pre-orders receive a free sketch inside!)
And on that note, as of February 1st, all of the previous chapters of Gods & Undergrads (Chapters 1 - 5) that are currently viewable online will be taken down. There will be preview pages available to check out for both Book 1 and Book 2, but no longer will all the pages be viewable. Chapter 6, however, will remain completely viewable online as the story continues, and will stay up until it eventually goes to print.
In the meantime, check out the forum and the Facebook page to leave any feedback about either book or any chapter.
Thanks for reading! I love writing this story (and will continue to) because of all of you. :)

11:46 am - The meat be gettin' tenderized
I've now made it through my first official fresh meat assessment and lived through two scrimmages. At first I was reluctant to even want to scrimmage - my approach to derby has been one of caution and patience, because I can't imagine ever being ready to bout. But luckily just seeing other meaties passing the assessment (and me not) the first time made me realize I DO want to get better faster, and compete, and scrimmage. All that good stuff of derby I want but am terrified to get.
I find it really interesting seeing what derby has brought out in me and in the other meat. Some people have quit, some people have effortlessly gotten better. Some people are competitive to succeed and some people reluctant. For me it changes constantly. One minute I'm terrified, the next thrilled, then frustrated, then ready to vomit. All I know for sure is that I LOVE this, even though sometimes it feels like I have to force myself to do it. It's a test for me. I've always thought I was a person who craved action with a tad bit of violence ... But it's easy to tell yourself that's "you" when you've never even tried anything that brings that out in you. I've always preferred to not try things that are scary or new. I'm dedicated, but I can frustrate easily. I hate sucking at things.
Somehow derby has shown me that I was completely wrong about all of these things I thought about myself. Does that mean every new experience brings something new out in you, or was it there all along? I guess you never know until you try.
