Another year come and gone. Lately I'm seeing a lot of people expressing quite a lot of negativity towards the last 365 years.
Maybe it's just me, but I don't think it was that bad a year. Hell, if anything the last two months alone have been great for me.
With my portfolio of work growing as a writer, having recently published a 22-page comic...it made sense that I made a website.
It's been a while since I've updated this old blog and considering I haven't written anything since New Year's Eve, I think I was past due.
So, here we are, end of the year once again.
This has been a very interesting year; very different but not too much.
Let's go over some highlights (and/or lowlights) of this year.
While the 11th of November of obviously an important day of it year, it also holds another special significance to me.
Two years ago today I woke up feeling slightly invigorated; the day before as I was heading into downtown Calgary, I got an eagerly anticipated phone call.
The job interview I went in for a week previously had been successful and I had the job.
It's been almost a year since Marcelo, Carl and I released "The Partner", a fan-comic based off of Batman: The Animated Series. Marcelo and I had done one five months previous as a small tribute to the late Kevin Conroy, but this was the first time we were telling a real story.
Last month a good friend picked me up from work with the idea that we'd have a quick bite to eat at a buffet and then catch a movie.
He knew of a theatre in Canyon Meadows that had cheap ticket prices and was even showing classic movies. You can imagine the gasp I made when I saw they were going to be showing Star Wars from 1977.
"Marlon, please," I begged. "We have to see it!"
"But...haven't you seen it before?" Marlon asked me.
"Yes!" I told him. "Many times. I could probably recite the whole movie."
"So...why do you want to see-?"
"Because you haven't seen it," I explained. "And...if you're going to watch Star Wars for the first time, you have to see it on the big screen."
I'm not normally one for doing posts towards the end of the year unless I want to give my thoughts on the best/worst movies or comics of this year but this year...things are different.
Another year come and gone. Lately I'm seeing a lot of people expressing quite a lot of negativity towards the last 365 years. Maybe i...
