I submitted my article on the SUPER iam8bit art show last night around midnight. It will be up soon. Maybe tomorrow or maybe the day after. These things take time, you see. It's not like you can just be put stuff up in a public forum instantly. We don't have that kind of technology!

Actually, it makes sense. Things need to be copy-edited and laid out properly. It is a professional site, after all. I had a great time covering the show, to be honest. I took a million pictures and interviewed about a million people more than I needed to for the final article. But there was some real craftsmanship put into a lot of the work. Once the article goes up, I'll put up what pictures they don't use.

As for the article, I was only half-satisfied with what I submitted. I ended up having so much information, I forgot to try to make it funny... which is kind of the point! But the editor helped me punch it up a bit and the final draft was better.

In the meantime, you can just listen to this girl tell you all about it in excruciating detail. 


You don't even need to read my article or my interviews with the artists. Everything you need to know is contained in this video. Why did I even bother writing the article? I give up.

I actually remember this girl from the show. I was really conflicted about her. She's shorter than I am and she was wearing a Ninja Turtles backpack. But she was hot so I still checked her out, even though she looked like a middle-schooler.

What?! Don't judge me! At least I felt bad about it while I was doing it! Oh, God... At least I'm pretty sure she was over 18.

In other news, I'm busy wracking my brain for more of charming little cartoons I started this week. Though I was inspired to do those when I should've been working on my article. New inspiration may have to wait until I have more real work to do again.... which may be never.

I am sorry. I tried to watch that video, but I can't take it.
