Hey, welcome!

Nice answers on some of those, btw. ;)
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

New blog!

Hell yeah, great to see you again Elric !!! :D

Thanks everyone, and it's good to be back Foggle and Micki! I don't even remember how many years it's been. Didn't stop showing for any particular reason, just kind of drifted, wasn't reading much manga anymore. It may have even been towards the end of my grad school time, and I was all-consumed. Also I am SUPER behind on the Excel Saga manga... I stopped at Vol. 22, and wasn't buying anything more except for Spice & Wolf novels (very big fan of that under-appreciated series as well. I have a thing for the under dog. Or wolf, in this case), getting the novels where the anime fell off. But I do mean to get back to ES, once I have some of this mysterious stuff people call "money" to "spend" on stuff that is not "Food" or "Bills" or "Crushing debt" :D

For anyone that remembers, I am nearing completion of my novel's 10th, read it, 10th editing (!!!) before I send it to an artist friend of mine who is doing the cover work on royalty commission, and I will be publishing through Amazon Kindle to start with. So hopefully "Weird Wyrd" will be on the market within the next year or so... of course I said that last year, too, but fuck it. I will also be working on my new light novel series "Mountainheart" in the very near future. Things got put on hold these past couple years due to my mother's failing health, and since January this year her passing. Life is starting to get back to normal now, or as normal as it gets with me.

See everyone around  :e_hail:

Micki!

Apart form not being able to afford mangas  :il_hahaha: ... I'm happy to hear you're seeming to do really well..!
We were afraid some people would lose grasp of this place entirely ever since we lost the old domain name, but you found your way here, so that's great..! I dunno about how long it must have been, 4 year I think it was..!

You got to read on with Excel Saga whenever you can, it only gets weirder, but we like it that way, don't we :P

Didn't know you were working on a novel and such, I'll have to look into this once it's available ..!

Very nice, I can't wait to see the finished version of your novel! I think I remember you showing me an earlier draft of it. :) Will there be a way to read it on anything other than Kindle? I don't have one.

ElricJC

Well, I will also be hosting a Cafe Press site selling associated merchandise and a trade paper version of the book (but it's POD, so it will probably be something stupid like $25  :pedro_nooo: but I have little control over that). Until I can get the attention of publishers, it's pretty much guerilla e-warfare and word of mouth/shameless whoring. My last attempt at publishing fell short, plus the market is pretty ugly for new authors, even those that get published. Terms companies are offering for new work are frankly insulting. I will find a way to persevere though :D. Worst case scenario I could even email you the MS Word copy I have once it's edited. Kind of annoying to read that way, but if you want, I can do that. I have another 360 pages yet to edit (out of roughly 570-580 - there is still some page fluctuation). Kind of long for a fart-joke laden comedic fantasy novel, but I'm told it reads faster than that :D.

Micki!

unrelated, but I just wanna hail at your avatar, Mister Torgue is one of my all-time favorite characters from Borderlands :kabapu:

Been a long while, ElricJC. Good to see you once again. I enjoyed your posts over at the old ES Forums.

Admittedly our transition to AR has been slow in terms of old members finding their way here. Or in your case, life does indeed get in the way for some and priorities must be met accordingly. Nothing wrong with that at all.
Glad you're along with us once again.
