I am BACK and thank you to those of you who helped out while I was gone. :D I'll be sending emails as soon as I can. I've been in a cabin that did not have any form of the internet and cellphone service was unheard of. It did contain some really humongous wasps, bees and spiders ... and a large fuzzy spiked caterpiller which Kim stepped on. 0.0 She has about twenty tiny bruises on the bottom of her foot - not punctures... it just looks weird. They're an array of tiny bruises. I had a GREAT time (without even the slightest desire to be online. :D )

Bad thing is that I don't think I got a lot of sleep on some of those nights because I started having fears of finding spiders and rattlesnakes in my bed. :D

Upcoming Weekends

2009-06-25T11:36:20Z

Goal for this month: ~~$239~~ $89 - The price of the tires I just bought so we don't have a severe accident on a highway that has a 70 mph speed limit. :/ I took the car in for a quick pretrip check on air and fluids and was informed the front tires were bald. I was not budgetting for tires ... :/ And yes, they WERE bald because apparently my husband and I had no idea what 'rotating' the tires actually WAS because nobody ever told us. :D I was under the impression it meant that they literally rotated the tires until they were at some special point on the tire. Now we know it's swapping the back to the front every 6,000 miles.

This week's Updates - Artwork that is being uploaded is actually from 2005. :/ I realized three hours away from home that my dongle was missing. :( (The piece of my ac adapter cord that goes from the cord to my tablet... very upset... don't know how it fell off! so when my tablet runs out of power, I can't use it at all. :( )

Alien Dice - June 25 - Artwork for the week while I'm out.
Akaelae - June 27 - Artwork for the week while I'm out.
Abby's Agency - June 25, 30, July 2, 7 - Uninterrupted
PURE June 23, 30 - One a week that week.

You can support the comics here And yes, buying books helps too! If you'd like to suggestion some donation wallpapers, please do so!

I'm up bright and early right now and the first thing on my mind when I woke up: I really need to put SOMETHING ON THE WEBSITES for next week!! I know... I'll use artwork from the artbooks! So yes, for those of you who have not bought them, that's what's going up next week.

We're leaving around 11 for part 1 of the 800 mile drive to Laurel Fork. We have a good stopping point in Forrest City, Arkansas. There's a Holiday Inn there with the most delicious breakfast ... and it's HUGE for the price. :D And that's the only meal we're paying for up there. Rob (my husband) has already referred to it as the 'unfun' part of the trip, because I've already plotted out we eat nothing but sandwiches, fruits and snacks the entire way up to the forest. ;)

NONONONO! Photoshop just told me it must be uninstalled and reinstalled... right before the trip!! NO!!

We DID get to go and see UP and it was wonderful! I think it's the best Pixar movie so far, although I say that everytime I see one - except Cars. I enjoyed Cars, but it wasn't anything really 'special' in the lineup. It might've helped if I liked cars in general more. :D

Despite my growing dislike of Michael Bay, I'm still looking forward to catching Transformers SOMEHOW. I also want to see Ice Age - probably more than any other version and I want the movie posters for it! ALL of them!!

Other possibly to see movies, but not important ones to be seen:

Aliens in the Attic, formerly They came from Upstairs
G-Force
Harry Potter
G.I. Joe - I think it's going to be HORRIBLE
Shorts
District 9
Ponyo - boo.. August movie, thanks soooo much Disney.

Wednesday's Updates:
Alien Dice, Akaelae

As promised, they are done!

You can support the comics here And yes, buying books helps too! If you'd like to suggestion some donation wallpapers, please do so!

Current progress: More shading.

I'm hoping that UP doesn't leave the theaters anytime soon. :D I want to go see it. Right now, it's not looking good for Transformers either. If Kim were older, we'd just take her with us, but right now loud noises bother her. I also want to see Ice Age - probably more than any other version and I want the movie posters for it! ALL of them!!

Hmm.. I realize that they've renamed: They came from Upstairs to Aliens in the Attic. I preferred the original title. If anyone remembers those 'cute lost alien' movies from the late 80's, this is one of those. G-Force - the one with guinea pigs - frightens me. It's just 'off'. Harry Potter's on the 'eh list this year. I've lost interest. I may do things that are playfully mean to my readers, but she was outright mean to hers and I no longer have a good impression of her. G.I. Joe is likely to be a pass. It's in August - it's a HORRIBLE movie by default. The moment I saw it opening in August (and the horrible looking still photos) I sighed sadly. On the other hand, Robert Rodriguez has another kid movie coming out the same month. ;) Shorts. I don't think it'll be horrible even if it's in August. Then there's District 9 and Ponyo!

Tuesday News

2009-06-16T16:05:03Z

I am on track for updates to resume tomorrow!

Bleah! I tried to go and get some excercise just now ... went to the apartment's gym and ... the brats have destroyed a THIRD treadmill. I am so angry. I actually NEED that treadmill. It's too hot to go walk and there's too much pollen in the air in the shadier part of the trail. :D (Plus.. I just do better on the treadmill because I'm forced to walk at a steadier pace.) I'm very tempted to go ahead and find a cheap treadmill as soon as I can... I like what it does for my blood sugars. Hmm... I may hit the CCA. They sometimes have excercise equipment.

Any little bit would help out right now. You can donate via the donation page! And yes, buying books helps too! If you'd like to suggestion some donation wallpapers, please do so! I'm kinda working at a frenzied pace that does not allow for much creative thought. :(

Current progress: I've progressed and finished the basic shading on Abby, working on the others now. Shading.. shading.. Cleaning painter shading to go into the Photoshop portion, then I have backgrounds and lettering and uploading!

Sunday News

2009-06-14T14:03:41Z

Whoa! - Video of the tornado that hit us: http://untamedscience.com/DFWstorm - The really cool thing is that they're filming on MY road. Even better, the picture at the top of the page was taken very close to where I live. If we had stayed in our apartment, we probably would've been in far worse shape nerve wise with all the explosions. The storm itself pretty much came out of nowhere and gave little warning about what it was going to do.

I'm abandoning my normal schedule of work for now since it's been disjointed by almost two work days. :/ I THINK everything should start updating again on Wednesday.

NOW I'm off to grocery shop. I put it off yesterday because I dread it this week. :/ I've gone every shopping trip for the last six months only buying things on sale ... now I have to go and buy necessities to replace those that spoiled. Thankfully I've had some help. Thank you. :) Some of that went toward batteries - for some reason ... I didn't HAVE any ... so I have a radio that works without being plugged in now and a flashlight ... yes, I did not have a flashlight. I did... but Kim has a way of walking off with them and I never see them again. Fortunately the last two storm systems missed us and we didn't get struck again.

Any little bit would help out right now. The storm didn't do us any favors on an already tight budget. You can donate via the donation page! And yes, buying books helps too!

Updates Forthcoming

2009-06-13T15:41:00Z

I'm abandoning my normal schedule until after I return from my trip (going to a nice forest for a week to do nothing whatsoever that has to do with comics, computers or WORK. Our first vacation in six years. Only one of two in the last ten. 0.o ) Everything SHOULD return to normal in July.

I lost over a day's worth of work time, almost two days due to the tornado, loss of power, no sleep ... and the time I'm going to take today to go shopping to replace food that went bad. Normally, I'd just say: No updates next week, but instead I'm just going to ignore my normal work day schedule and work straight through so updates may resume in the middle of the week depending on when I get them colored and lettered.

Any little bit would help out right now. You can donate via the donation page!

Current progress: I'm almost done filling in the colors on Akaelae! Three pages to go! Then I start shading.

Yay! I have Power!

2009-06-12T00:57:45Z

20+ hours later, power came on. I then proceded to take stock of the fridge and freezer... then carried five bags of spoiled food to the dumpster. I'm not willing to risk preparing meats that have thawed on the edges or eating frozen food that's in wet boxes. 0.o I really hate my freezer. I think it should've kept things colder for longer.

I DID manage to save milk, bacon, lunch meats, cheese and other important basics with a bag of ice and two coolers. :D

I also now have a flashlight (which Kim will not end up carrying away) and a radio that WORKS. It kept looking stormy today, but right now it's nice and calm. They're still working to restore power to other subdivisions.

I'm now in the 'need donations' area! (It's not good when you intend to save money by eating the freezer food and purchase $30 worth of freezer food on sale the Sunday before and have it go bad. :( Lucky me, freezer was half full prior to that! ) Any little bit would help out right now. You can donate via the donation page! And thank you to those who have! I'll be emailing tomorrow morning, right now I'm trying to play catchup on comic work. :( I'm running on very little sleep right now. I spent most of the night restlessly staring at a constant lightening and thunderstorm ...

Bleah - Help!

2009-06-11T12:40:29Z

So last night around 6 or so, started hearing thunder. Checked the forecast - just plain thunderstorms. Then.. it started getting louder around 6:30 so I checked again and .. .nice .. Tornado WARNING - which means a tornado has been sighted in several areas, Flower Mound being one of them, and we should be seeking shelter. I decided we needed to get out of our second story apartment and go to my husband's parent's house. :D It was NASTY outside, but I was pretty sure it was behind us.

Spent an hour in a closet until the warning time was up. Power went out during that time and when we returned home we found the same thing ... no power. It's been out since at least 7pm last night. Then it stormed allll night and I mean,the worst lightening and thunder I've ever seen... from 11pm to 7:30am - yes, it just cleared up as I'm sitting here in McDonald's taking advantage of their so called free wifi... cost me $3. 9.9

I will ink the rest of the week's comics, but I doubt our power's coming on anytime soon. :( We watched on the news last night before the power went out as transformers were being blown one after another in the area and saw the lights flicker and go out repeatedly, so they have a LOT of work to do. Trees were down, huge limbs, signs were torn off stores,.. and I notice one road is closed to the public less than half a mile away from where we live. 0.0 That's where the tornado touched down. I'm glad that we didn't stay where we were ... because it would've been far scarier than where we were.

Kim ended up sleeping on the floor next to our bed and we were thankful for the cool breeze that the storm brought. ... otherwise it would've been really miserable. From here, I'm off to Wal-mart to buy a bag of ice if I can find one so I can at least save the milk for breakfast tomorrow. :( And a flashlight... we don't have any flashlights :P

Unfortunately, since I can't cook and I didn't have ANY money budgetted for eating out and it's likely everything in the fridge and freezer are now going to spoil, I'm now in the 'need donations' area! Any little bit would help out right now. I likely won't be logging back in until we have electricity - my laptop is half drained right now. :( MAYBE from the library if it extends for more than another day. You can donate via the donation page!

Tuesday Updates

2009-06-09T19:41:46Z

Abby's Agency AND PURE have updated!

If you enjoy the comics, consider purchasing them in print form from Indyplanet or donating! Akaelae #1 and Genoworks Saga #1 will likely be listed there in a few weeks. Even when I get the regular store back up with things, I will not be adding comics except on a preorder basis. On very rare occasions I might offer some to clear out inventory, but those are few and far between.

Working on comics. I've finished all the inking. It's amazing what KNOWING I'm going to get a week away from doing any work can do in the work department. I was trudging through the grind yesterday - today I flew. I probably should try to take more mini vacations ... there's just so much to get done. :D

Prepping them for ink right now. I'm going to work on Alien Dice's text tomorrow after inking.

Not going to see Up afterall - I need shorts and shirts more. :D So does Kim, she's growing too fast!

Monday Updates

2009-06-08T13:46:48Z

Akaelae and Alien dice have updated!

How about that ... I AM going on vacation afterall. 0.0 Complete shock. Now.. on to making rush preparations. We have a favorite hotel in Forrest City, Arkansas - the Holiday Inn there is awesome and will run just under $100 for one night. The Days Suites nearby would run us $80. That one offers a breakfast. The Holiday Inn gave us breakfast for the time we stayed as well, but I'm not sure if it includes it this time - I'll find out when I call. There are 10,000+ of you... do you have any suggestions of good hotels in that area if you happen to have stayed there or in cities near it? I like staying where I have stayed before, but I'm leaning toward a cheaper stay!

I'm pretty sure I have a few readers who work in movie theaters. :) If you work in a movie theatre, or go to a comic book convention which has the usual free posters - please pick up a few Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs posters for me! :D I desperately want a full set of them to frame for my work room and I'm unable to go anywhere to get them!!

My tablet gave me a lot of problems last night, which resulted in the loss of a good hour's worth of work on the next update of Alien Dice. 9.9 For some reason, I was saving a second update window and just kept forgetting to save that one - then I got blue screened. :D Bleah.. Blue Screens. All's good now.

Annd.. today is the first day of summer for Kim, so we're about to go for a walk, then I'm going to work, then we're going to go out and hit half price books to return some things. Then I do some more work. :D I'm going to try spending enough time with her to make her want me to go away so I can work without interruptions in the same room. ;)

Tomorrow I'm going to try to get to AD text and keep up with it. I don't have any pressing matters any more to get in the way. AND Tony Piro who does Calamities of Nature has given out comic making information that will likely save me an ENTIRE DAY worth of work a week! I would like y'all to go and see his comic. :) (If I can save that amount of time, it makes things much easier on me and makes me faster!)

Out to go walk with Kim now!

Bleah

2009-06-08T00:05:08Z

Well, now I'm sadder than I was before. I wanted to go to Anthrocon this year. I couldn't go to Anthrocon because of planned family trip which was planned six months ago. I had to cancel the family vacation on Monday because of how horrible A-kon turned out to be, then started considering doing Anthrocon now that we weren't going on vacation to make up for A-kon since I did so well at Furry Fiesta - only I MISSED the time frame to get a dealer table by three/four days. Bleah. I'd rather have gone on vacation anyway, but still...

It was only a slim chance anyway.

Weekend News

2009-06-07T18:38:03Z

Well.. since there's no way we can go on a family trip, I'm somewhat considering rush arrangements to attend Anthrocon. $300+ to fly up there .. but I'd be guaranteed to make it back if I secured a table.. only now it's kind of too late. :/ Ugh.. well... I have been tossing the idea of going to Anthrocon next year and making it our family trip for next year, provided things start looking up.

I am very curious about a good place around the northeast side of the country to spend a Fourth of July holiday. Where would a good placce to go be?

Friday Updates

2009-06-05T14:07:31Z

I'm going to find something to post today.. after a bit of other work. Or maybe not. :D

TODAY is the last day for preorders for AD #1 signed and with or without extra art pieces like what's up there!

Today was Kim's LAST day in Kindergarten! Part 1. She goes back again to repeat it next year. :D Our choice, not hers. She could have gone ahead and gone on to First grade, but she would have remained the smallest in the class. Being a July kid, she could've waited a year to start anyway. It was fun getting to eat lunch with her because I found out she has multiple boyfriends and everyone is her best friend. :D

Funny thing in her backpack - She had a drawing of all of us at Red Lobster, with the note: I like eating at Red Lobster. Then she asked if we were going to Red Lobster for dinner. :D I laughed... and quickly changed the subject. (We're having hamburger casserole tonight, she's not going to be happy about that.)

Ok, there's a 1% chance we'll still go on vacation, providing something awesome happens on the 20th. :D I'm clinging to that 1%. I want to go wander around in a forest for a week. :D It's not an opportunity that comes around often for us. This is where I've been looking forward to going for six months. :D Our only cost is getting there and back.

I'll now take a moment to say Royal Pains is an awesome series! USA rarely dissappoints!

Thursday's News

2009-06-04T15:16:29Z

No updates today.

Orders for AD #1 end on June 5th!

Updates will continue on schedule next week.

I'm cancelling our vacation. There's no way I'm going to do even more extra work after working every moment of every day for two weeks to get ready for A-kon and pretty much burning myself out. We have to get the tires realigned, pay for car registration and my medications before we even GET to the trip part. :P I'm just not up to it.

Well.. we've discussed just driving all day ... which is a trip that goes from Dallas to past Nashville. :P The big problem is paying for two nights of hotel stays. :/

An Hour later, after husband notes some additional bad news.: Well.. that's nice. I'm really sad about it, but there's really nothing to be done. Unless I can come up with $500 to take care of things (That would be getting a prize in the contest I'm entered in or Wowio paying me the money they owe me from over a year ago.), nothing can be done), no going anywhere. I guess we can at least see Up this weekend.

Wednesday Updates

2009-06-03T20:29:56Z

Akaelae has updated with reader artwork. Alien Dice has updated with my artwork, a sample of what comes with a book preorder.

It's... Wednesday... I'm just going to ink everything I can today and start going through my usual process of work tomorrow. Orders for AD #1 end on June 5th!

I just have to wait three weeks and then I can get away from all the comic work for an entire week! When I get back, I should be good and refreshed. It's been six years since I've had a vacation that doesn't involve working.

Monday June 1st updates

2009-06-01T16:19:29Z

There are not any actual comic updates this week, but there is guest art! (And I'm sure I have AD artwork around here somewhere!) At the moment, I have Akaelae updated.

I've been busy running errands: Dropped off Kim, walked Vash, drank breakfast, Attended Kim's awards ceremony, dropped off perscriptions, went to bank to replace the money taken out for A-kon, hit Albertson's, hoping for cheap fresh baked bread that was supposed to be on sale .. key word... supposed ... it wasn't. :/ Checked bank, yay, payments for book orders and a Kroger gift card! Back to home... called about TV repairs, that's going to happen tomorrow... called Verizon... why is there a double charge here for dvr rental when I only have one dvr and one tv? :D Grumbling that tv warranty runs out in October - TV will likely DIE in October. :D It hasn't even been a year since it was fixed last... I hate this tv. I'm picking out the next one... and it's going to be CHEAP.

Back to work now... all that was done in three hours. Now to pencil and get the Twinky and Chatin picture completed (Titanic Chatin was completed two weeks ago... I just haven't emailed it. :D ) Then on to comics and a few more of the special images for the book preorders. Orders for AD #1 end on June 5th!

I was depending on A-kon for the first vacation my family has taken in six years (before Kim was born). I was not actually on board with depending on A-kon because I had a sixth sense about it in January when ad revenue pretty much tanked ... but I was over ruled. 9.9 We're getting a good deal because it's a family vacation and involves a cabin rental in the woods that we don't have to pay for... for almost a week. We just have to get there, which involves gas, food and one hotel stay both ways. I have two and a half weeks to raise it. I will be open for badge and button/keychain/mirror commissions next week, which will be completed before I begin working on comics. The amount of commissions I do will depend on how quickly I hit the goal of $500. (I keep forgetting we have to align and rotate the tires before we go.) Once I hit the goal, not doing any more. :D

Yay - It's over!

2009-06-01T00:57:17Z

Yay, A-kon's over and I can put it behind me. I'll just forget about this year. :D I DID break even! Now I have to concentrate on working toward vacation. I have three weeks and the first thing I'm going to do ... is get back to work tomorrow as I planned. Since that's my only plan.

Because I didn't gert ANY badge commissions at A-kon, I'm likely to open them up online for a short time. They will be copic colored laminated cut out badges for $30 - including shipping for a 4.5 x 5.5 and I'll also be working on button/keychain/pin custom badges for $10 each in color - these turned out VERY nice. I'll scan and show off examples after I get other stuff done. I DID get four custom mirrors done for people.

Please don't order one because I put that info up right NOW - I will be putting it in the store and I need to finish some other things before I open up for those.

#1 item to go up... mini notebooks and buttons featuring 4 kittens in 3 color variations - white, black and light calico. I sold more of those than anything else at A-kon. 0.o And I finished the images the day BEFORE the convention started. They were just simple little kittens, but without them, I would not have come anywhere near breaking even. 0.o

The TV has died. Kim's sad .. even though she hardly WATCHES tv. :D

- Tiff

A-kon Day 2

2009-05-31T01:48:36Z

... well.. to say I'm bummed is an understatement. This is the first year in the last five plus years that I've done A-kon ... that I'm possibly going to end up not even breaking even. :/ I'm hoping for at least $50 to $100 tomorrow... and then the table will be paid for. :/ Wow... it's bad. But there's no way I'm giving up my table. :D I like A-kon. I like getting to chat with many strange people at once. Besides, next year should be better. Sadly, this was my last con of 2009.

So now I'm tired and stressed and trying to figure out what to do. I was hoping A-kon would help out with my vacation. First vacation in six years... I need a real vacation where I don't have to touch a computer or draw anything. I'll figure out something else to do. At least I've had time to draw some of the bonus art for the orders in the meantime... but I am a bit stressed and think I'm going to bed a bit early tonight.

Friday - A-kon!

Up and getting ready to go down to the convention. Got everything set up and I'm next to Antarctic Press' tables again this year in the dealer's room. :)

First day of convention: *Groan* I think that I overdid my preparation and I burned out bad today. Part of it may have been that it was so slow. :/ I hope tomorrow is better.

Whew ... Walmart - Done, Michael's - Done, JoAnn's - Done, Office Depot - Done and finally ... I got a haircut. :D 3 hours of my time - Gone

But I am almost done with A-kon preparations! My new printer is working great - No STREAKS! Which has prevented me from adding prints for almost two years now. I also finished off three prints that needed to be done - including two for Talin - I have no idea if he's coming to A-kon this year, but just in case ... and I can mail them all afterwards if not.

Next I have to prepare packs for making custom buttons and badges and commissions in general. After A-kon I will start refilling the new store with new prints and things!

No real news... just working. Almost done.

Going to take Kim to Night at the Museum 2 in a few hours. Love the $5 matinee. :D Then I need to run to Michael's and Jo Ann's for Day 1 of getting ready to go to A-kon. 0.o I have four days to prepare!!! Sadly, I didn't get a lot of things done I wanted to. :(

Wednesday's Updates:
Alien Dice, Akaelae

For those of you that tried to order earlier- I fixed the store issue with paypal. :D
Alien Dice News: Yes... I could have spent the morning catching up the text since I actually ended up with a 'free' day to just work on non comic related stuff ... but instead.. I chose to FINISH ALIEN DICE #1 !!

You can NOW order Alien Dice #1 for $10 plus shipping through the new Shivae Studios Store, which I haven't even had time to customize, but this will be a good time to get the bugs out. If you have a problem, let me know. I'll be making alternate paypal buttons to use in such cases. The official announcement will be made tomorrow.

Next week I spend working on A-kon prep. The week after, there will be reader artwork updates! Then back to updating for a few more weeks before my family trip, then another week off... and that's it for the summer. Summer schedule is in effect ... I am going to TRY to get Shivae! back into the lineup soon, but currently only AD, Akaelae, Abby's Agency and PURE are updating.

If you enjoy the updates, consider supporting the comics!

I'm considering offering extra updates since I DO have a few extras, but because there will not be any updates in the first week of June, don't know if I want to do it that way. :D

Oh... and I found out Ebin and May has moved. :) I really enjoy Ebin and May and think you might enjoy it as well if you like Akaelae.

Tuesday Updates

Tuesday's Updates:
Abby's Agency, PURE

Next week I spend working on A-kon prep. The week after, there will be reader artwork updates! Then back to updating for a few more weeks before my family trip, then another week off... and that's it for the summer. Summer schedule is in effect ... I am going to TRY to get Shivae! back into the lineup soon, but currently only AD, Akaelae, Abby's Agency and PURE are updating.
