Stuff.
I've been working like a dog. One of those dogs that draw, I guess.

Somehow, between my multitude of projects, I got some of the merchandising designs done that are due. I only spend about 2 days a month working on any kind of product design, but they are a full couple of days. I know it seems like I'm putting out more stuff than books, but that is because I'm working on so many books at once, they're not getting finished. I can't work on just any one thing for a period of time. My brain just doesn't function like that. Currently, I'm working on The Bear and the Belly Lint, Samurai Sloth, It Ate Billy On Christmas, I Can Count To Ten, Lenore #12, The Taxidermy, and Not a Bunny's Tale. 7 books. Ouch. Lazy?
In addition to that, I'm working on several personal film projects and studying cinematography. I'm also writing a movie script, drawing some Lenore short strips, and I'm designing a video game. That's a pretty full plate and I'll probably go funny in the head.

A couple of new things that'll come out eventually are a Lenore night light and a PVC set of Lenore characters. The PVC set is just my designs I finished tonight and they haven't been approved by Darkhorse yet. I'm hoping they let me make this set because it kicks the ass. I dunno if they'll let me include that set of accessories to fit into Lenore's hand, but I hope so.

...and Night Light.

Oh, and that deal with my Ex and Spookymuffin from a prior entry.... That all started from a misunderstanding on the phone. I said I was dealing with Spooky dying and she said something about taking her to the vet. She thought I meant "was in the process of dying" as opposed to "already dead" dying. Made her sound super mean but now that I understand the situation, it wasn't at all. She also just last night suffered the biggest kind of personal human loss possible and she has my sympathy.

*EDIT*
Oh, and just to show the process of how these things work, this is what I have to do for each figure:

I really love your work. The PVC Lenore characters would nicely compliment Edgar on my desk.

Kudos for putting the record straight dude, my heartfelt sympathies to your ex, I know what it's like to deal with a loss.

The PVC figures kick maximum ass, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease make sure they let you produce a range of accessories to fit Lenore's hand!!! (optional decapitations too!!)

Hope your new kitty friends are doing good :)

PVC figures make me feel the warm fuzzies all over... well nto really but the Lenore ones do. My Lenore doll & lunchie box are rather lonely on the corner of my shelf, they'd be rather happy to have some relatives come live with them. *crosses fingers* Please, O Darkhorse, approve the damn PVC figures or I shall beat you all with pointy sticks!

Video Game?!?!?! Bad ass, hey Roman, if you want to talk about that full plate to an audience of awesome women, i write for www.Pretty-Scary.net, I can talk to the powers that be about doing a write up on you (catch would be that you would be called a Scary Stud of the month). LMK if you're interested! I'd be honored :-)

Here's hoping you get all your projects done before going mad.
Or have you already? I think that's probably part of your charm.

Tres cool - I want that night light! - although around here I'll have to buy two just in case....my two-year old deamon child will play with it like he did his bat one. He used to just sit in front of his bat and poke it until he finally broke the thing(like the CD drive on my computer too it seems).

Kid won't speak except in growls (yeah for months of speach therapy - that's said sarcastically) and now that he's learned how to use both the DVD and the VCR there has been a steady stream of LEXX and Fight Club mixed with the shark scene from Finding Nemo...so you can see why a Lenore night light will not last long in this house...on second thought, can you sell them in packages of 12?

Roman, no one can ever say you have a shitty work ethic. If I was in your position I would have already gone insane. So good job on keeping your sanity? (Well for the most part)

So anyway the PVC set and the night light look bad ass. I will buy them all. I especially like the Mr. Nanners accessory. That was hilarious in Lenore #11.
