The Year in the Rear-view

The first half of the year was quite outwardly productive with the release of the third year of Killing Time - Horror E-Rag™ issues. Then after that things quieted down. Killing Time's fourth year will not begin this year (2011). At this point I have no expectation of when it will happen. I won't get people's hopes up. It will arrive when it does or it won't at all. I have not worked any further on the serial story and I will not begin a new year of issues without that done completely in first draft this time. I will also have to do most of the short story work first. I'm keeping the submissions page open at Battered Spleen Productions™, but it's all a chicken and egg process where I don't count on submissions until the certainty of the E-Rag is resolved. I do not expect it would be any different even if I offered to pay a pro rate. That's the way these things go. Time will tell.

R.G. Male's Dark Corners made its transition to it's new home. There are still miles to go before I sleep on that one but it's been a mostly smooth transition. It was a fine year over at Learning Dark Arts. I created a number of tutorials. I posted throughout the month of October during Dark Corner's "13 Nights of Hallowe'en" rather than taking October off entirely there. I made a fair number of images this year not even counting the ones from Killing Time. The big event of the year was On Dark Rhoads™. It burst onto the scene in April and ran almost every Saturday until December 3rd. It had a great run and you won't want to miss what's going to happen when it returns in January.

Okay. That is all I have. I wish everyone a Happy December/Kwanzaa/Hanukkah/Solstice/Yule or a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year. See you in 2012!
