Don't mean for this to be spam. I promise. :flag:

I'm currently documenting my progress on my new novel (as well as day-to-day artwork and projects) on my blog: http://www.raydillon.blogspot.com

And, I plan on doing the same in November for the National Novel Writing Month (http://www.nanowrimo.org/) (at least, that is, if I can get my current novel finished or to a pausing point, and get the next one prepared by then).

Thought some of you might be interested in that, and if you're doing something similar with your blog, please let me know. I'd love to keep up on your writing as well. :popcorn:

Post your writing blogs! :hooray:

The phrase "Must Read's" is wrong. No apostrophe for plural. Maybe if you spent less time adding emoticons...

Your artwork is absolutely faboo! It seems to me that you take creativity to an all new level. When do you sleep!? Beautiful work. Impeccable.

well Ray after the praise that you have recieved from such esteemed members of the forum as those above this post, I simply had to check your blog.

I am in the middle of illustrating the narrative for my upcoming site and found your images to be borderline magnificent. humbling too.

re: the breaking for colours picture -
reminded me of Cliff Chiang - really good stuff there.

i'll be checking up on your regulalry.

ps - on the incubus and the jimmy eat world -
if you like the harder side, i say give 'cells' by the servant or 'much against everyones advice' by soulwax.

I started blogging to document my journey to publication. I called my novel finished on Dec 31, 2004, and started querying agents. I got a bunch of rejections and then... Well, if you care, you can read what happened next on my blog (http://fantasyauthor.blogspot.com). It begins in Feb 2005.

I hope so! Thanks for the kind words. You're very kind. Can't wait to see your new site, too.

I use my blog to escape the realms of my novel. I sometimes make a mention of the process, but I try to keep them separate if I can. My blog is very cheeky, rude, and in some ways the alter-ego to my novel. I guess that's how I keep sane (or keep myself believing i'm sane).
