Updates

I don't have too much to report on today, packing, cleaning, and getting ready for my trip up to Atlanta took up a large portion of my time. I'm working on getting a color section up on my page that should be available within the week. I updated the blog a little, getting a few more links up. In terms of the art, I'm sketching out some ideas for the new strips, prolonging any serious work on the stories. Tomorrow comes the drive to Atlanta, but after that, hopefully, some real work will get underway.

Namaste,
Jon Jones

The Inevitable First Post

Hello and welcome to the blog/news/comments page for the stupendous site, Burritosabode.com! Being the inevitable first post of the blog, I suppose that I will have to get a few things out of the way first. I set up this blog as a way to keep fans updated on the progress I'm making on new strips for Burrito, new stories, and on the city of Burritosville. Also, as it will be quicker than email and even quicker than snail mail, this blog provides an opportunity for fans to leave comments, suggestions, and anything that you may want to see in future Burrito strips.

As of now, I do have a few dates to offer to fans, release dates, if you will.

The city opens October 2008; the exact date is uncertain.

New Strips will begin January 1, 2008, shooting for between 15 and 20

A new story, tentatively titled "All I Want is a Brother" launches in March 2008, just in time for Mega Con

Finally, my first collection of short stories is slated for July 2008, though the date is subject to change.

This should be one hell of a ride. Welcome aboard friends.

Namaste,

Jon Jones
