AHoy Thar maties!

Woo, I got work, nearly twenty hours a week, possibly more, what I mean to say is the lettuce patch has started up again, and I am unlucky enough to be completely free the next two weeks.
Anywho which means I will have a good amount of money earned up by the end of the holidays, of which I can start saviog and putting it somewhere safe.
I've started the first Newstory strip, its going to be done in a four panel type format like Tales from the Lettuce Patch till I get to where I originally planned to start the manga thingy. I may have it done by the weekend, and up.
Geez I'm nakkered, this is the first time I can say I have worked ten hours in one day, well monday, the order was 1000 bunches of spring onions and 250 cabbage.
1 tonne of cabbage
And two bins metre cubed of spring onions.
And I've got the same number to do tomorrow as well as lettuce planting...
Well busy day tomorrow...
Not that anyone cares
Anyways I'm thinking of starting a kinda of story to TFtLP eventually, more as a way to practise story telling techniques and dialogue with it then anything ground breaking(like I could even try)
Oh and I just heard that one of my favourite authors just died without finishing the final book in his book series(well actually I heard it last week but anyway)
I started reading Robert Jordan's Wheel of time series back in grade six, and it really influenced the way I (try to) write.
So in a way those were the first real fantasy books I broke my teeth on, other then the ones read to us by my teacher.
So in closing I've got places to go, many areas to improve upon, and a fan base of two people visiting my website each day, so I think I've got soemthing going on here
Sayonara folks and keep visiting GuardianUniverse.com, I want to beat last months number of visits!

Okay new plans for the website

Rightio first off I've started doing Tales From the Lettuce patch again, this time in a new easier to draw in format, the panels are no longr hand drawn.
Anwyays, currently I've decided to set TFtLP up as a once a week fair, this is to give me time to work on the other projects I'm working on.
These projects are the Realm manga(well atempt at manga), which I have decided to give a sporadic update schedule as the pages are much bigger then any of the other comic strips content wise, and I may not get one done a week, I might set it up to be once a month type of update.
The other comic strip I've got in the making, is Diaries of a drifter, it will be set in the same world as Newstory but will be several years earlier.
The other project I'm planning on doing is changing a story(term used loosely) which my friend Brendan and I coauthored into a comic, the main characters are going to be Simy from TFtLP and another character to represent my friend Brendan's character in the story. It will be extremely strange and random!(here's hoping I can draw it)
I'm also planning on updating the stories section at some point, with a sequal of sorts to Jake's little adventure, which I haven't started planning yet. It's a parody of one of my story worlds.
And I may start trying to write the Realm as well, to keep pace with the manga, thingy...
Also I have that game I'm going to hopefully have done by Friday to put up as well, which I will try to keep updating and improving upon.
Other then that, I'll be performing little updates here and there, and may even eventually start trying to advertise Guardianuniverse.com a little on the net, by joining some of those forum type things.
Anyways I've yabbered on enough so sayonara folks and wish me luck!
