Shame on me!
Yeesh, has it really been so long since I last posted? Time flies, and all that.
Well, I have a couple things to share. One, I'm pretty please with myself. I started this doodle a while back ago and finished it tonight:
Some of the detail, especially in the sashes, was lost in the scan :S Oh well. It's Cirque-inspired. Between a local Cirque-style performance seen...was it last month?...and watching lots of Cirque du Soleil on video, I couldn't help myself :D
Books:
79. Rising Stars, by J. Michael Strazinski. Somehow, I managed to check out and read the last book first. Oops! Complete accident. So, now I know the ending in this really neat, really gripping graphic novel. Now...I need to read the previous ones.... Fans of Babylon 5 and Heroes will like this. Basically, it's about a group of children who were in utero when a meteor hit. These children were given various superhero powers. The problem is, how will they be used -- especially when they discover that the death of one special enhances the survivors' own powers?
80. Twelve Sharp, by Janet Evanovich. Probably the most serious book so far, although there are still some good laughs (my favorite moments involving Lula, Sally Sweet and their band.) Ranger's daughter goes missing, and Stephanie tries to assist, as only Stephanie can. Except Stephanie has her own bull's-eye painted on her, by one of the most twisted villians yet.
Haven't done much reading lately, obviously. Not sure if I burned myself out, or the weather has been too nice, or what.
