First Day

With the first day of the quarter coming to a close, it certainly seems that this will be one of my busiest quarters at SCAD. With four classes in cauldron, free time seems as though it will be non-existent. No matter, however, I'm confident that while certainly busy, I should see some of m best work appearing this quarter with senior project and the anthology thrown into the mix.

In regards to the anthology, I've almost completed the first four pages of tight roughs, though revisions in the story and personal questions regarding it's pacing plague me and, as usual, slow me down. The goal is to have all seven pages completely roughed and ready for penciling by next Wednesday with the finished pencils appearing the next week. I'm crossing my fingers, but I should be able to manage just fine.

The Daily Burrito launch today went about as expected, with the first post going up and the rules for entry also posted alongside. Though I showed a few of the current pencil sketches I'm working to some people today with fairly favorable reactions, I'm still nervous about whether or not the idea will catch on. With any luck, I'll hopefully have 45-50 consecutive viewers to the blog by the end of the quarter.

The website visits are, as expected, low, but I realize a large portion of this has to do with a lack of public knowledge about the site and it's works. Also, the lack of work on the site, and the slow pace required to finish any new work to go on the site adversely affects, I'm sure, the viewership as well.

Oh well, by the end of the quarter I should have plenty of new work to go onto the site. My hopes are high.

Namaste,

Jon Jones
