I'm seeing the title as my future. Jay informed me yesterday, after finding out about my departure from the company, that he still wants me to update the company's comic blog on a regular basis. The conversation somehow evolved into him setting me up my own blog to rant about what ever I want, as somewhat of an offshoot of the comics blog, where I would be free to rant and rave and use all the curse words I wanted. The conversation sprouted again when he then informed me that if I was willing to pay for a domain name, he would be an active sponser and host me on his server. He said that for cross-promotional interests, he'd like me to be a featured writer on his site, concerning art and the digital age. The best part, I might actually be able to work out a way to get paid from all of this shit. Maybe. Even if it's all probono and just to get my name out, why the fuck not? Something to do, and closer to the industry than I am now. Jay also happens to have the personal email of the CEO of a rather large comic-related publication, to whom he will be randomly emailing my writing. If Jay was a woman, I would think he was just trying to get into my pants. However, Jay is just one guy that knows what a fucking mountain it can be trying to get seen or heard. He got help. Now he's paying it forward. I intend to do the same, when I actually have something to offer.
But enough. There are some idea's floating around in my head that I am gearing up to fuck with. What the fuck are all of you up to?
